“For 30 years parents have struggled in vain trying repositioning, tummy time, therapy and a myriad of other "treatments" for established head flattening. Go with what works [Perfect Noggin]”
Why Dr. Gary Created The Perfect Noggin
After treating thousands of babies with flat head syndrome, Dr Gary Rogers recognised the need for a safe, science-backed alternative. Together with his wife, he founded the Perfect Noggin. A contoured sleep surface designed to gently support natural head shape development.
Drawing on more than 15 years of research and clinical experience, he continues to refine and improve the design, tirelessly ensuring it supports busy, overwhelmed parents who want the best head start for their child.
Why Parents Feel Stuck

Repositioning that doesn’t deliver results
So Much Tummy Time, Yet No Change
Unsafe “Head-Shaping” Pillows That Don’t Work
Helmet Therapy many parents can't afford
