Can anyone recommend a mattress protector that will keep the mattress dry but doesn’t rustle at every movement. My 4 year old grandson is such a wriggler, the last thing he needs is yet another thing to distract him at bed time! Thanks in advance

Protectabed are superb, expensive but worth it.

I'd recommend one that zips all round rather than the elasticated ones or those with ties. Also wash it before use, then it is quieter if that makes sense.

We have one on every bed in our house .

Me too!
They are like very fine stretchy towelling, no rustle, no crinkle, and best of all totally undetectable- especially with a regular mattress protector. (Accidents can happen to anybody- even a spilt tea in bed!)

We had one 'free' with a new bed called Care Pure Cool Matress Protector. It's made from Tencel and supposedly waterproof (not tested so far)
