Benefits of technology

[0006]An object of the present invention is to provide a mattress cover that is capable of effectively and completely covering a mattress for a baby and that prevents pulling-off the mattress therefrom, by the baby.
[0007]Another object of the present invention is to provide a mattress cover that is capable of preventing an easy permeation of baby food, dirt and fluids therethrough, to an enclosed mattress.

Problems solved by technology

However, while in use, the mattresses easily get spoiled after being spotted and stained by baby food, dirt and fluids.
However, conventional mattress covers are incapable of effectively and completely covering the mattresses from all sides thereof, and therefore, are incapable of effectively protecting the mattresses against spotting and staining.
Further, due to ineffective and incomplete covering, the conventional mattress covers are easily pulled off by babies from the mattresses, thereby providing an easy exposure of the mattresses to the baby food, dirt and fluids.
Furthermore, a partially pulled-off mattress cover from a mattress may pose a threat to a baby by causing entangling of arms, legs or other body parts of the baby, during movement of the baby in a playpen or a crib employing the mattress.
Accordingly, such conventional mattress covers are incapable of effectively protecting the mattresses against spotting and staining.
Moreover, it may be inconvenient and time-consuming for a caretaker to easily remove spots and stains during washing and cleaning of such spotted and stained mattresses and the mattress covers.
