“Hello, this email is in response to how I heard about Thudguard Helmet. I was hoping to find something that would protect my son's head since he was about 8 months old, when he started standing on his own. Now, my first born is learning how to walk and I became VERY anxious, especially when he fell on the side of his head for the first time. Although people say that this is normal for toddlers, I didn't want to take my chances since to us, every body part, especially his head, is too precious to harm. I joked with people saying that I was going to buy him a helmet for playtime, thinking it didn't exist, but then I found your website and ordered one immediately. Thank you for calming my anxiety and protecting my son by providing this product.”

“Dear Baby's First Head Gear,
The helmet arrived today way ahead of the posted shipping time. Thank you very much for your immediate attention. My son is very rambunctious and this helmet has already prevented an injury today! I am amazed at how lightweight it is but it's extremely shock absorbent as well (I'm a crazy mom... I tested it.) Thank you for this product. It's worth every penny of the price you asked for it.”

“Hello there, I found out about Thudguard in an online search. I just wanted to take a minute to say thanks for a great product! I bought it for my 2 year old to wear after she fractured her skull. It has given me such peace of mind and allowed her to continue on with her natural play with out the fear of getting hurt. I have attached a couple of pictures of her first time playing outside after her accident. Thanks again”

“My 7 month old great grandson has had two recent head bumps at a daycare. I decided it was time to research protective head gear for infants learning to crawl and walk. I was impressed with your Thudguard Helmet and decided to purchase it after his second mishap. I am so happy that someone took the initiative to develop this. Everyone kept saying that babies are going to fall as they learn to crawl and walk but if you can prevent injury why not find something to help. I think all daycares should carry these. He will be wearing his and maybe other mothers will ask about it. Thanks so much!!!”

"I saw information on Thudguard in Parenting Magazine on the new trends
page- then I checked out the website and placed an order. We absolutely
love the Thudguard for our 9 month old daughter. We have tile floors
throughout our house and some sharp corners on furniture as well as lots
of glass doors and windows- our daughter is standing up now and will soon
be taking her first steps so the protection for her head is much needed.
My husband is an Emergency Medicine trained physician and he knows too
well the damage that a head trauma can cause in young babies and children.
So thank you for this wonderful product. We have been using it for a
couple weeks now and love it!" - Dianna Lewis
“I just saw a small advertisement about your product in Parents magazine yesterday. Ever since my daughter first started wanting to walk and fell straight back on our tile floor, I've been saying to myself, "there has to be a helmet out there for toddlers learning how to walk." Luckily her spill was a mere scare to both of us, but I want her to be able to learn freely without me hovering over her each second afraid of her hurting herself on the tile. I was so excited to see the ad, because your helmet is exactly what I was hoping to find out there. Thank you.”

“My name is Martha and I ordered a helmet for my baby last week. I saw your add on Parenting Magazine. I'm very pleased. Once I placed the order I got the helmet within two days. I' am very happy with the product and I would recommend anytime. Keep up the good job.”

“I hope this not only catches on, I hope more parents in the US begin to take head injuries more seriously. It’s ridiculous to compare what a crawler or new walker is going through to that of older children. My 7 month old has no way to comprehend the ramifications of his actions. He is exploring and doesn’t understand what will hurt him. I’m watching him bump and bruise himself all over the house while simply trying to be more mobile. And you know what . . . it hurts him and the pain is real. He can’t protect himself so it’s up to us as his parents to do it for him.
The whole “babies have been doing this” forever attitude is ignorant. There are a lot of stupid things we used to just let our children muddle through until we got smart over the years. It was only a few decades ago that we started giving infants anesthesia for surgeries and only recently did the FDA start recommending pain medications for circumcisions. Why do we think our children need to go through this kind of pain to enter the world with the rest of us? (And don’t even get me started about what we still do to animals.)
We just ordered a thudguard. Not because we heard about it but because we got on-line to seek out a product to protect our baby’s head after many falls and bumps since he started sitting up and crawling. It’s the answer to our prayers and I can’t wait to get it. I’ll tell all my friends about it as well. The Brits are right on with this one.”

“I saw tipntrends in Parent's magazine last night. My 20 yr old son died of a closed head injury from skateboarding 5/6/06 and one of the EMT's mentioned it might have been cumulative from an earlier head injury skateboarding. My boy also had 3 falls as a toddler which I hope did not contribute to a propensity for further head injuries, but just in case I got one for my grandbaby 8 months old and one for demonstrations when I go into grade schools doing helmet education programs. Great little invention! I've already shown pictures to a plumber with a toddler who is working at my house today. Please email any head injury literature you might have available. Thanks.”

“Hi- I did a Google search and found you. I received it today and put it on my baby's head, he didn't seem to mind. WOW it is stressful when they start crawling...especially with travertine floors. I feel much better with this little "crash" helmet. Thanks”
