WATERPROOF SHEET FAQ'S
Our sheets are a 2-in-1 solution – combining the comfort of a soft fitted sheet with the protection of a mattress protector.
Our sheets have a hidden waterproof layer made from a soft, breathable polyurethane barrier. It protects your mattress from leaks and spills while feeling just like a regular fitted sheet — no noisy plastic feel here!
Our waterproof sheets feature a smart three-layer design to keep your little one dry, comfy, and safe.
Top Layer: A layer of 100% soft quilted cotton that’s gentle on delicate skin and helps regulate temperature.
Middle: A lightweight polyester fill, quilted in to help wick moisture away from the surface and support the structure of the sheet, without added thickness.
Bottom: Polyurethane Laminate, or PUL for short. This specialised material has microscopic holes that allow air to travel back and forth, whilst trapping water molecules on the surface. This means the sheet is breathable and allows air flow, but stops anything else!
Nope! Our sheets are mattress protectors. They are not only snuggly soft and breathable, they shield the mattress at the same time. They also help to protect the mattress against dust mites and allergens. You’re welcome!
Bambella sheets are built tough, and are designed to withstand frequent washing. Simply toss them in the washing machine, and they'll come out as good as new for snug fit every time.
We are tempted to shout “the limit does not exist!” But if we had to pick a number it would be 3.
Three sheets means that you can have two sheets layered + a spare!
Not at all. Our sheets are quilted and designed to feel just like premium bedding — soft, quiet, and comfy. You’d never know they were waterproof.
We recommend line drying to maintain the integrity of the waterproof layer. If needed, tumble dry on low heat only.
Our sheets are quilted to add a soft, comfortable feel and to help the fabric hold its shape after washing. The quilted design also helps distribute moisture more evenly across the surface, so your little one isn’t left lying on a wet patch. It gives the sheet a luxurious finish — but without adding any padding or bulk, keeping the sleep surface flat and firm in line with safe sleep guidelines.
WATERPROOF SHEET SAFETY FAQ'S

Yes – our sheets are suitable for use from birth. They are designed to fit snugly over the mattress with no loose or bulky layers, which aligns with Red Nose Australia’s safe sleep recommendations. Always place baby on their back to sleep, on a firm, flat surface with no loose bedding.
We have carefully designed our sheets to be used safely in line with Red Nose Australia’s guidelines:
✔️ Firm, flat mattress
✔️ No bulky padding or loose layers
✔️ Snug fit with full elastic edging
No – our waterproof sheets are not padded. While they do have a lightweight quilted design, there is no added bulk, cushioning, or padding that would interfere with safe sleep recommendations. The internal layer is a thin, breathable polyester fill that helps wick moisture away and maintain the sheet’s shape — all while keeping the surface flat and firm, just as recommended by Red Nose Australia for infant sleep.
SHEET Sizing FAQ'S
Basically it comes down to size and fit. Our Moses/Oval Bassinet sheets are slightly smaller and slimmer, with oval shaped edges. They measure 76cm x 36cm x 4cm and are designed for smaller, and slimmer bassinets such as the Snoo, or Moses style baskets. We have created them using elasticised ends to secure the sheet in place, but without putting too much pressure on thinner mattresses that tend to bunch up if the sheet is too tight.
Our Standard Bassinet Sheets/Change Mat Covers are a rectangular in shape, and feature wider edges and sides to fit a variety of bassinet mattresses and change pads. They measure 80cm x 46cm x 13cm - with the generous sides featuring elastic all the way around to ensure a snug fit on the bassinet mattress.
