Bowron Babycare Soft Natural Lambskin Comforter

More than a million babies around the world in the last thirty years can thank a young New Zealand mother for her wonderful idea. She had seen long term hospital patients benefit from lying on sheepskin bed pads, and felt that sheepskin might help relieve the pain of her child who was in hospital with a broken thigh. It worked. The sheepskin gave her child great comfort and from that was born the idea that resulted in Babycare lambskins.

The mother then thought that newborn babies might benefit from the security and comfort of a natural wool sleeper. She explained her idea to Bowron. The Bowron researchers, in co-operation with the Wool research Organization, began a four year development program to find the perfect lambskin for babies.

After an extensive testing program with the New Zealand Parents Centres Inc, the Babycare lambskins went on sales in New Zealand and Australia in 1970 and were an instant success. Today Babycare, the original infant lambskin, are sought after by caring mothers all over the world.
