Baby Cooling Mats - Manaaki Mats

~Simple Deathcare~

Manaaki means ‘to take care of’. Manaaki mats are a New Zealand based company who provide a specialised cooling resource to offer bereaved parents.

Manaaki mats provide a safe, simple & effective way to keep the body cool. Using this resource slows down the natural changes that occur after death and most importantly allows the family more time before burial or cremation.

This extra time ensures that families can create memories of holding and caring for their baby or child.

Using the mats allows you choices as to where you would like to place your baby/child, either in your arms, bed, or cot.It is a more natural, environmentally friendly and affordable alternative to chemical embalming.

The founders of Manaaki Mats are Annie Meredith & Claire Turnham.
