August 2025 Update: Lead Safe Mama, LLC Affiliate Relationships now Include Naturepedic

August 30, 2025

First… Naturepedic is having a 20% off sale right now! As several people have asked for it, here’s Lead Safe Mama, LLC’s new Naturepedic link.

If you want to copy and paste the link to save it for the future, here it is in full:

Since quite a few of you have been wondering, given Naturepedic is having a 20% off Labor Day sale right now, Naturepedic is my personal organic mattress brand of choice — something I have shared about quite a bit on our website over the past 11 years since I first discovered the brand and had the opportunity to test their products using XRF technology! (And yes, for those who are new here, I have tested many other mattresses to date that contain toxic chemicals in them — more on that here — including XRF test results for examples from Beautyrest, Sealy Posturepedic, Tempurpedic, Graco/ Storkcraft, and Sertapedic.)

Here’s what we shared about the story behind this new link on social media today:

BIG NEWS EVERYONE!

Lead Safe Mama, LLC has moved away from the direct-to-manufacturer affiliate model as of this month — August 2025.

We previously had just THREE active direct affiliate relationships: Naturepedic, Solidteknics, and Ahimsa. Those were our only three active affiliate partnerships besides Amazon. Kleynimals is a past partner, too! (We love Kleynimals as a baby gift for newborns!)

We no longer have any independent manufacturer affiliations, but will maintain our Amazon affiliate relationship, so we can continue recommending products that test cleanly (and you can support our work with your purchases — an arrangement y’all asked us to set up back in 2016)! We always encourage you to buy local, but to please click on our Amazon links before you start any Amazon shopping you were already planning on doing (you don’t even need to buy what we link to, just click on one of our Amazon links and then go about your shopping as you normally would)!

We are now limiting our direct engagement (with companies who make products we trust, based on our independent scientific testing) to “invitation only” advertising banner sponsorships on our website, newsletter, and upcoming app (meaning advertising opportunities are only offered to companies we invite to participate in this way). Advertising sponsorships support our work with lump-sum (predictable) periodic payment to help us better budget for leaner times (like the summer), which allows us to continue expanding the reach and impact of our work (for example, helping fund otherwise unsupported testing and reporting for products nominated by the Lead Safe Mama community).

We would love your continued support of our advertising partners, as they are amazing businesses and we encourage you to click through their sites from the links we share.

Naturepedic has pledged to be our next advertising sponsor, taking the header banner spot on our website (possibly as soon as this coming week) — a sponsorship that will help us cover costs on many of our not-yet-funded campaigns for community-nominated laboratory testing and reporting from now through the end of 2025.

Naturepedic’s financial support of the work of Lead Safe Mama, LLC at this time is critical for us to keep doing what we do, and your clicks through to their website from our link (if you are considering buying organic mattresses, bedding, or dolls from Lead SafeMama, LLC’s favorite organic bedding brand since 2014!) will help show the company that you appreciate their support of our work in this way.

Thank you in advance for continuing to support Naturepedic with your purchases so they can continue supporting Lead Safe Mama, LLC as an advertising sponsor (now, and hopefully into the future)!

Thank you, to all of you!
And thank you to everyone at Naturepedic!

You can find our Naturepedic link in the future, once the 2025 sponsorship officially begins, by clicking the banner with their info at the top of any page on our website. You can also find it on the bedding page of our shopping website, which will be updated shortly: https://shopleadsafemama.com
