$109.00

The Bubnest Everyday Playmat is a GOTS-certified, low-tox playmat made with OEKO-TEX tested components. It provides a safe, breathable and sustainable surface for supervised play, tummy time and early development, designed for longevity and modern family living.

Made from excellent, non-toxic materials. 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton cover and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified polyester filling.
Bubnest Organics products are designed in-house by an all-female team in South Australia and manufactured in China by a partner holding certifications such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, GOTS, OCS and GRS. The manufacturing facility has completed BSCI and SEDEX 2-Pillar social compliance audits, indicating adherence to labour, health and safety and ethical business standards. The brand openly shares certifications and sustainability commitments.
Bubnest uses GOTS-certified organic cotton, ensuring fibres are grown without harmful pesticides, herbicides or synthetic fertilisers and OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified fibres, which are independently tested to be free from harmful substances. Products are designed for longevity and multi-use, with durable construction and multifunctional features to reduce waste. The brand produces in small batches to minimise overproduction and uses 100% plastic-free, biodegradable packaging. Sea freight is prioritised over air freight for products manufactured in China to reduce carbon emissions.
Bubnest supports new parents and postpartum mothers by designing products that promote calm, comfort and bonding during the newborn phase and by creating content and conversations that normalise the emotional highs and lows of parenting. The female-led, Australian-owned business collaborates with parenting communities and professionals, prioritises certified safe materials, is a member of the Infant & Nursery Products Association of Australia (INPAA) and follows and promotes the Red Nose Safe Sleep Guide to help educate its community on product and infant safety.

Product Reviews by Experts


What I liked most was the lovely quality and the reassurance of knowing exactly what has gone into it. It is a great size and a beautiful neutral colour, soft and comfortable for my baby during tummy time and play, and it genuinely feels built to last. Most of all I loved that it is made from GOTS certified organic cotton and OEKO-TEX certified fibres, independently tested to be free from harmful substances, which gives me real peace of mind for something my little one spends so much time on. It is exactly the kind of safe, low tox piece I know my baby is safe lying and playing on. What impressed me most is their certifications and independent testing. I love that 100% of their products are made from independently certified materials inside and out, and that their manufacturing partner holds recognised quality, environmental and social compliance certifications, with the factory passing third party labour and safety audits. Their anti fast fashion philosophy really resonated with me too, designing timeless, durable pieces made to be reused across siblings rather than thrown away, alongside small batch production, sea freight over air, and 100% plastic free calico packaging. The social heart stood out as well, as a female led brand offering real support to postpartum mothers and championing safe sleep through INPAA and the Red Nose guidelines.


I absolutely love the playmat and use it multiple times per day with my 7 month old. I only want organic cotton to touch my baby’s skin and this product delivers with the best cotton cover. We use it for picnics, home use and travel. Every detail has been thought of and I’m so impressed with the attention to detail. I was really touched by the handwritten card and photo of the founder/baby. You know you are in safe hands when there is so much love poured into a product. I love that Bubnest only uses exceptional quality for their products, which is important to me. I’m also impressed everything is independently tested to ensure there are no harmful substances.


What I love most about this playmat is how practical it is for every day family life. Great to use in home but also take out with you if you are on a playdate or park. It has a beautiful feel and is also beautifully cushioned which makes it a comfortable space to play and roll. Being GOTS certified is also a standout for those with babies of sensitive skin. What stands out to me is the brand’s transparency in openly sharing its certifications and sustainability commitments. I also really appreciate that they provide recognised certifications, such as GOTS, rather than simply making claims. Not many brands are this transparent, and as a parent, that level of openness is incredibly important when choosing organic products for my child. Carefully created with many skin types in mind and those babies with sensitive skin. I also love supporting family focused businesses that genuinely prioritise quality, sustainability and trust. Knowing the brand is committed to these values gives me confidence that not only myself but families are investing in products that are better for both families and the environment.
