Diaper Pad
TV personality and award-winning interior designer Anitra Mecadon took moms-to-be on a fun and informative journey to buying a safe, eco-friendly crib mattress in an episode of her digital series “Diaper Pad.” During the episode, Mecadon and husband, Adam Bret, visit the nation’s oldest family owned crib mattress maker, Colgate Mattress. They talk with our National Marketing Director, Terri Paul, and ultimately choose the EverTrue Diamond for their baby boy, Nash.
