FAQ

  • What does "Anjadeer" mean?
    • Anjadeer is derived from a South Indian language; the Kannada word, Anjadiru, means don't be afraid.  The name reflects the mission of the company to "reduce the fear and stress of parenting" with products focused on comfort, connectivity, and safety of children.

 

  • What does "Sahara" mean?
    • Sahara means "support."  Our first product is Sahara Nap, head and neck support pillow.  It provides support for children's head and neck when they are riding in cars, stroller, airplanes, etc.
    • First, Sahara Nap provides neck support for the child while seated in a car, stroller, bouncer, airplane, or any seat.
    • Second, when the child takes a nap on these seats, Sahara Nap pillow provides head support on both sides to prevent the head from drooping/slouching down as the vehicle moves.  It provides an undisturbed sleep for your child.  Hence, the name "Sahara."
    • The patented design provides head rest and neck rest.  It is the best anti roll support pillow for toddlers and older children

 

  • What are the various parts of the Sahara Nap?
    • Sahara Nap Head and Neck Support Pillow has these important parts:
      • Outer cover for softness and a comfortable feel for your child's neck and cheeks.
      • Inner cover for waterproof protection of the foam inside.
      • Core of the pillow is made from memory foam for softness and comfort.
      • Support cushion on both sides provides the head support to reduce head slumping and stress on the neck
      • Optional embedded Bluetooth Speaker secured inside the inner cover pockets.
      • Outer cover has the cute vehicle print design that makes this children pillow attractive to kids of all ages

 

  • What materials are used in Sahara Nap?
    • Outer cover is soft minky fabric perfect for children.
    • Inner cover is 100% polyester meant to be water-resistant to protect the pillow core.
    • Core of the pillow is made of memory foam that provides firm support
    • Bluetooth Speaker has plastic on the outside with electronics sealed inside.

 

  • What makes Sahara Nap different and better than other products in the market?
    • Sahara Nap has been specifically designed with our patented front support cushions that provides support for the child when they nap.  None of the other products in the market have this feature.  Sahara Nap is the best head support and neck support pillow that has been carefully designed for toddlers and children
    • Sahara Nap has been carefully designed to prevent the child’s neck from leaning forward. When used correctly, Sahara Nap design ensures that the child is more comfortable without obstructing the working of the seat that they are sitting on.
    • Sahara Nap design does not cause the head to be pushed forward which is a common problem in other products in the market.
    • The high quality memory foam used in Sahara Nap softens the pressure points making it much more comfortable for the child in comparison with normal foam used in other children products.  This provides the ideal support that is firm but soft.
    • Sahara Nap has an optional Bluetooth speaker which is not available in any other such children product.
  • Concerned about the impact on the seat operations?
    • Sahara Nap has been designed for use in a variety of seats including strollers, cars, bouncers, airplane seats, etc.
    • Anjadeer has consulted with professionals and considered various factors for using Sahara Nap safely with typical seats in the market today.  Our patented design considers safety of the child in all the parts of the product as listed below:
      • Sahara Nap does not hinder the working of any seat because it does not attach to the seat directly in any way and does not or connect to the seat's shoulder straps.  See correct usage instructions for Sahara Nap Head and Neck Support Pillow to ensure the seat's normal operations are not hindered when used correctly.
      • Sahara Nap's neck cushion is designed to ensure it is properly tucked in behind the neck to avoid the head from leaning forward away from the seat.  See correct usage instructions for Sahara Nap Head and Neck Support Pillow to ensure child's head is properly rested on the seat when used correctly.
      • Child's head or the body is not prevented from it's natural movement because Sahara Nap provides a cushion in the front and sides that supports their heads and cheeks when children nap in any seat and stroller. Sahara Nap Head and Neck Support Pillow is held in place by just it's positioning; no external straps are necessary and should not be used with this product.
      • Sahara Nap has passed the safety and compliance tests successfully as required by ASTM and CPSC standards for children's products.
    • In designing Sahara Nap, as a mom and as Anjadeer's founder, I have also considered other concerns parents typically have about their child's safety when using buying new products for their kids. For example :
      • Materials used for Sahara Nap are fire-retardant and the product's cushion cover doesn't become hot when used in cars and strollers during the hot summer months.
      • Optional embedded Bluetooth Speaker keeps the volume low for little children and away from their reach, safely tucked away in the back of the pillow.  Parents/caretakers should operate the Bluetooth Speaker including charging it when needed, pairing it with their phones and playing age appropriate contents.

 

  • How can you clean Sahara Nap?
    • Only the Outer Cover is meant to be washed directly after removing it from the pillow and the inner cover.  It can be machine washed or hand washed and must be fully dried before using it again.
    • Remove the Outer Cover by unstrapping the Velcro at the top of the Sahara Nap Head and Neck Support Pillow.
    • Wash/dry the Outer Cover just like any children's cotton cloths.
    • After washing and drying, put the Outer Cover back on top of the Inner Pillow and fasten the Velcro straps before continuing to use Sahara Nap.
    • Inner cover may be wiped dry for any spillage; while it is water-resistant, it is not water-proof (i.e. you should not soak it in water or other liquids).  Inner cover must always be covered by the Outer cover while Sahara Nap is being used.
    • Inner cover may also contain the optional Bluetooth Speaker.  The inner cover is not water-proof and the electronics/batteries of the Bluetooth Speaker should not get wet.

 

  • How to correctly and safely use Sahara Nap?
    • Sahara Nap is meant for children aged 3 years and above.
    • It is meant to be used by children that are seated upright while riding in a car, or a stroller, or any seat.  It may also be used when children are seated in airplane seats.
    • Sahara Nap is not meant for children in horizontal sleeping positions in seats and beds of any kind.
    • See the pictures below for the correct positioning of the child & the Sahara Nap:

 

    • Keep the following requirements in mind when correctly using Sahara Nap Head and Neck Support Pillow:
      • Sahara Nap must be placed and tucked behind the neck of the child so that the child's head is touching/resting directly on the seat or the stroller's backrest.
      • Sahara Nap's front cushions should be evenly positioned on the child's shoulders.
      • Sahara Nap's front cushions should be next to the cheeks of the child close to the face on either side.  Sahara Nap should be close enough on either side but not necessarily directly touching the cheeks when the child is awake.
      • When the child is napping, the front cushions should be touching the cheeks to ensure the head is still held-up straight preventing the neck from tilting too much and causing soreness.
      • Child's head or the body should not be prevented from moving front-to-back or side-to-side as part of using Sahara Nap.  Sahara Nap Head and Neck Support Pillow should only be held in place due to it's shape; no external straps, etc. should be used with this product.
