The Newborn Cap can be used in cases where the cranium has not completely formed, after surgery when accidental bumping may occur, as well as during sibling interactions with the newborn when accidental touching of the sensitive area may occur.
The ultra lightweight helmet is made from soft, 3/8" shock absorbent foam and is fully ventilated. It's coated in vinyl, so cleaning is easy with just soap and water. A soft chin strap holds the cap in place. The cap can be trimmed in the front to adjust forehead height or in back to allow for occiput differences. The foam edge is not fabricated, but it is still waterproof.
A free set of 4 Cush-In-Pads are included with every helmet for more individualized sizing adjustments, if needed.
If child's head circumference falls between helmet sizes, additional cushions may be needed. See Optional Liner Cushions found below.
