Urgent recall issued for Pack N Play mattress that could pose deadly entrapment risk to infants

Ryan Brennan | October 31, 2025

A popular Pack N Play mattress pad is being recalled due to a deadly safety concern. 

On Oct. 30, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) urged parents everywhere to stop using the Modera Organic Cotton Pack N Play Mattress Dual-Sided Portable Baby Crib Pad. 

The recall affects roughly 15,000 crib mattress pads sold on Amazon from April 2024 through June 2025. 

According to the CPSC, the Modera crib mattress pad “may not adequately fit certain play yards which is in violation of the mandatory standard for crib mattresses, posing a deadly entrapment hazard.”

The CPSC also warned that “babies have suffocated in gaps between an undersized mattress, or extra padding, and side walls of a product, especially when the infant’s face becomes trapped against the side.”

The Modera crib mattress pad was sold in white, pink, blue, and gray, and has “Modera baby” printed on labels attached to the mattress. Its dimensions are 38 inches long, 26 inches wide and 1.5 inches thick.

It’s also dual-sided, with one side designed for infants and the other designed for toddlers.

The CPSC urges parents to “stop using the recalled mattresses” and “cut the mattresses in half.” Photos of the damaged mattress in a waste bin can be sent to recall@moderababy.com for a full refund.

There have been no reported incidents or injuries at this time. 

In a statement on their official website, Modera clarified that the recall only affects the 38"x26"x1.5" pad and urged parents to register the product for confirmation before destroying the mattress pad. 

Refunds will either be issued through Amazon or via a check in the mail.
