Mimos Side & Tummy Time Pillow
A multifunctional adjustable pillow designed for tummy time and side sleeping. It helps prevent and correct plagiocephaly, promotes muscle and sensory development, and can be used from the first weeks of life.
- Clinically tested & medically certified
- Recommended by pediatric physiotherapists
- Suitable from 0 months
The Tummy Time Pillow positions the baby in an ergonomic posture to practice Tummy Time. This position is beneficial for preventing and correcting a flat head. It also promotes the baby's muscle and sensory skills.
The Side Pillow reliefs pressure on the affected area of the skull and applying additional pressure for at least 30 minutes per day on the non-flattened part is crucial for correcting a flat head. This is why physiotherapists integrate lateral position exercises combined with a side pillow into the treatment plan for this condition.
This product is classified as a Class I medical device under the European Regulation 2017/745 (MDR). It bears the CE marking and complies with applicable safety and performance requirements.
The product includes a tummy time pillow, a side pillow and comes with a convenient storage bag and an instruction manual.

Comfort for Your Baby
As a parent, nothing matters more than your baby’s safety and comfort, especially during those crucial early months of development. Yet, tummy time can sometimes feel challenging—worrying if your little one is comfortable, if their head is properly supported, or if they might develop any pressure spots. That’s why the tummy time & side pillow was created: to ease your concerns and provide a safe, soft space where your baby can explore and grow with confidence.
Ergonomic Support for Healthy Growth
This specially designed pillow cradles your baby’s head and neck with gentle, ergonomic support that adapts perfectly to their delicate body. Crafted from breathable, soft materials, it keeps your baby cool and comfortable during tummy time, reducing unwanted pressure on the head. By promoting healthy posture and encouraging natural movement, this pillow helps your baby build strength and motor skills safely.
Support Healthy Development
Imagine watching your baby stretch, lift their head, and discover the world around them—all while resting comfortably on a specially designed tummy time and side pillow. The tummy time pillow encourages your baby to strengthen their neck and shoulder muscles by providing a soft, supportive surface during playtime on their stomach. The side pillow offers gentle support to keep your baby’s head in a natural position, helping to protect against flat head syndrome.
You can feel confident knowing you’re giving your child the best start, providing both physical comfort and emotional security as they grow and develop healthily.
Better Results Through a Complete Ergonomic Posture Solution
When it comes to your baby’s posture and head development, the right support can make all the difference. The Ergonomic Posture Treatment combines three targeted pillows, each designed to address a specific aspect of your baby’s physical development.
- Side Pillow encourages healthy positioning and reduces pressure while your baby is resting or feeding on their side.
- Tummy Time Pillow promotes active movement, strengthens neck and shoulder muscles, and supports motor skill development during play.
- Mimos Baby Pillow ensures gentle, even pressure distribution while your baby sleeps, helping to maintain a natural head shape overnight.
By combining these three pillows, you offer your baby a well-rounded, medically backed approach that supports both posture correction and head shape protection throughout their daily routines.
Unlike using a single product, this treatment targets multiple causes of postural asymmetry and flat head syndrome at once—leading to faster progress and more balanced development.
And with the full set, you also save up to €33 compared to purchasing each item separately.
Recommended by Pediatricians and Physiotherapists worldwide
As a pediatric osteopath, I highly recommend the Mimos pillow for babies with plagiocephaly or a flat head. In just a few weeks, this pillow can make a significant difference. It's a product we recommend to parents of babies with a flat head on a daily basis, and we've even mentioned it in our book, Cherished Baby and Child.
As an experienced pediatrician, I recommend the Mimos pillow for children with plagiocephaly. It reduces pressure on the skull and reportedly improves skull shape more quickly than without intervention. Since the NHS currently cannot support the purchase of expensive helmets, I prefer to recommend this affordable product.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use the Tummy Time Pillow
The Mimos Tummy Time Pillow is adaptable to your baby's developmental stage.
1. When your baby is just starting tummy time, you can stack the two pillows together for full support. This elevates your baby to a higher, ergonomic position and supports the legs, making it easier for your baby to practice tummy time.
2. As your baby progresses with tummy time and becomes stronger, they will need less support. In this case, use only the larger pillow. This provides support to your baby's knees and upper body.
3. In the final stage, before your baby can independently do tummy time, use only the small pillow to support the upper body. By gradually reducing support, you are training your baby to practice tummy time independently and strengthen their muscles.
Always use the pillow under supervision and never leave your baby unattended during tummy time.
How do I use the Side Pillow?
For correcting severe skull deformities, it's important to relieve pressure on the flat side of the head and apply extra pressure to the non-flat area for at least 30 minutes per day. Physiotherapists often use side exercises as part of the treatment plan for skull deformities. This position is significant for babies with severe skull deformities.
Using the Mimos Side Pillow can sometimes be challenging because the baby can easily roll onto their stomach. The Mimos Side Pillow helps the baby to remain in this position through back and front support. Side is typically recommended until the baby can roll over on their own; the average age for babies to roll over is between 3-9 months.
Instructions for use:
Adjust to the correct size: The Velcro makes it easy to adjust the pillow to the length and size of your baby.
Use during playtime: Use the pillow during playtime in the baby gym. Place the baby on the non-flat side of the head and encourage play with some toys.
With these instructions, you can effectively use the Mimos Side Pillow to help correct your baby's skull deformities. Always use the pillow under supervision and never leave your baby alone in the side pillow.
Why are Mimos Pillows more expensive compared to other pillows?
The Mimos Pillow stands out due to its special 32-layer 3D mesh fabric, which ensures continuous air circulation and breathability, making the pillow 100% safe for your baby. This unique material and handmade production in Barcelona, Spain, guarantee the highest quality. The Mimos Pillow is the only pillow in the world recognized as a Class 1 medical device and CE certified, made possible by our collaboration with pediatricians and physiotherapists worldwide.
Are Mimos Pillows hypoallergenic?
Yes, Mimos Pillows are hypoallergenic. They are made from high-quality materials carefully selected to minimize allergic reactions. The 3D air mesh material used in the construction of the pillow is breathable and promotes good air circulation, helping to dissipate heat and moisture. This helps create a comfortable and healthy sleep environment for the baby while reducing the risk of allergic reactions.
However, it is important to note that every baby is unique and may have individual sensitivities. If your baby has known allergies or sensitive skin, it is always advisable to consult a healthcare provider or allergist before using a Mimos Pillow to ensure that the pillow is suitable for the specific situation.
How long does a Mimos Pillow last?
Generally, it is recommended to regularly inspect the Mimos pillow for signs of wear and damage. While there is no fixed expiration date for a Mimos pillow, it is important to replace the pillow if you notice it starting to lose its shape, if there are tears or damages, or if the pillow no longer provides the desired support.
The durability of the pillow can also be influenced by following the proper maintenance instructions.
Additionally, it is important to note that the Mimos pillow should not be passed on to another baby or child. The pillow is specifically designed to support the shape of an individual baby and can adapt to that specific shape. Passing the pillow to another child can result in a loss of optimal support and reduce its effectiveness.
To ensure safety and the best results, we recommend purchasing a new Mimos pillow for each baby or child. This way, you can be sure that the pillow provides the right support.
