First… Naturepedic is having a 20% off sale right now! For those looking for Lead Safe Mama, LLC’s new Naturepedic link (several people have asked) – here that is.

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

And here’s the story behind this new link… (since quite a few of you have asked – given they have a 20% off Labor Day sale happening now – and many of you know that 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! [& yes – for those who are new here, many other mattresses I have tested to date have 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 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, & 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 to recommend products that test clean (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 on Amazon, just start your shopping with a click on one of our 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 (advertising 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 to expand the reach and impact of our work (for example helping to fund otherwise unsupported testing and reporting for products nominated by the community).

We would love your continued support of our advertising partners – they are amazing businesses and we encourage you to click through to 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 which will help us cover costs of many 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 to show them that you appreciate their support of our work in this way.

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

Thank you to all of you!
& Thank you to everyone at Naturepedic!

To find our Naturepedic link in the future: once their 2025 sponsorship has officially started it will be at the top of every page of our website linked to a banner with their info. You can also find it on our bedding page on our shopping website (which will be updated shortly!): https://shopleadsafemama.com
