What is the Montessori Topponcino?

The Montessori Topponcino is a soft, mat-like Montessori baby support pillow that provides comfort, support and consistency throughout the first few delicate months of a baby's life.

SUPPORTIVE

A practical parenting tool

When your baby enters this world, it needs physical and emotional support. Babies are generally hearty little people. 

However, there is countless evidence that a human baby is born “too soon.” There’s no more proof of this than the fact that your new baby will not be able to hold their head up on their own. 

Used by parents for generations, the Montessori Topponcino’s unique oval design physically supports your baby while handling, holding and feeding.

COMFORTING

Your baby's first prepared environment

Your newborn is experiencing smells, temperatures, and textures for the first time. These new senses can be overwhelming and frightening. All of the novel experiences can be harsh.

It is important to find items and habits that delicately transition your baby into the world. 

Not only will the Montessori Topponcino assist your newborn in its transition to life outside the womb, it will also help you as a parent to transition into your new role of a caretaker.

CONSISTENT

An emotional "safety object"

The Montessori Topponcino provides a point of reference with its constant familiarity in texture, warmth, and scent. 

No matter who the baby is with or where the baby is in the world, this Montessori baby mattress is with them and will not change. 

This consistency provides your baby a sense of confidence in their new environment so they can feel safe and focus on learning and growing.
