More than a million babies around the world in the last twenty 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 today's 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 Organisation, began a four year development programme to find the perfect lambskin for babies.
After an extensive testing program with the New Zealand Parents Centres Inc, the Babycare lambskins went on sale in New Zealand and Australia in 1970 and were an instant success. Today Babycare lambskins are sought after by caring mothers all over the world.

Guidelines For Use
A million babies around the world have enjoyed the warmth, comfort and soft feel of Bowron Babycare since it was first developed over thirty years ago. However, continuing childcare research has resulted in many changes to childcare and parenting practices. The following provides a guide to assist you and your baby to gain the full enjoyment and benefit from your Babycare Lambskin.
Sleeping
When used as an item of bedding, it is recommended that children under the age of one are positioned on their backs and lambskin is covered with a sheet.
Thermal Control
Bowron Babycare is perfect all year round and can be used in a variety of ways. Wool is nature's insulation keeping baby warm and cosy in cold weather. In hot weather wool absorbs moisture which is then released into the air, leaving baby drier and more comfortable. However, as wool has superb insulation features, parents can generally use less clothing, less bedding and lower room temperatures to avoid overheating baby while sleeping.
Easycare
Babycare lambskin require less care than other baby bedding. Just machine wash and dry once a month. Full care instructions are attached to each skin. A daily airing keeps the lambskin fresh for baby. Small slightly soiled areas can be sponged off.
