"HKD Solutions... I cannot Thank you enough for the help getting funding for my son's UrZone bed. My little boy, who is 7, was born with Downs Syndrome and has ADHD. Bedtime was awful as Daniel would not sleep at all. He would just destroy his room climbing, banging the doors, and shouting. Also because Daniel was not sleeping his behaviour was awful day and night, which also affected him at school. When Daniel was unwell with a chest infection, which is very often, he needed his steam vaporizer but because of he's behaviour he couldn't have it.
"Now we have a UrZone safe bed, Daniel goes to bed at 6.30pm and within 30 minutes he is fast asleep and he will sleep until 6am the following morning without any Melatonin medication. His behaviour is so much better at home and at school, and also I get a good 8 hours sleep. Whoop whoop! I cannot thank you enough. And HEATHER, you are one very special lady, thank you from the bottom of my heart xxx."
"This is a great company that helped us from start to finish it obtaining a UrZone for my 4 yr old son with Angelman syndrome. He has been sleeping in it for only a few weeks & seems to love it . He settles in it so quick at night & we can now feel assured that he is safe & secure thus us getting a more restful nights sleep!"
"Not enough stars to rate this woman and her family of helpers. Amazing xxxx.
"Can't believe how easy it is to assemble! It's so comfortable and the customer service will never be beaten. Can finally enjoy our holiday and my son can return to respite with grandparents safely š. Owe you so much Heather. You are amazing xxxx
"Not a thing to worry about tonight. At last a family holiday where our little man will be safe and sound. Thanks so much Heather š, just completed a world record attempt to assemble it as he was falling asleep"
"Teddie is a 4-year-old boy whom was diagnosed at 14 months old with ASD/ADHD, Hypermobility, Global development delay, sensory processing disorder, Pica and lastly ARFID.
"Teddie was born a healthy 6lb 6oz baby with no complications. Around when Teddie was 11 months old, we started having great difficulties with his sleep and to say the least it was really tough time for us as a complete family of 5, especially the last 12- 18 months being a SEN parent with multiple complex chronic illnesses relapsing, alongside mental health.
"We had tried absolutely everything even down to prescribed medication and the most sleep Teddie would have a night was around 2 hours on an extremely good night. Sleep deprivation took its toll on everybody, especially my husband, Teddies dad, due to my health and medication he took over all night time duties and still carried out everything during the day as normal.
"There were days and nights we would sit and cry with Teddie due to his lack of sleep, our lack of sleep. At times I we would even curl up on the sofa during the day for a small moment of a nap out of sheer exhaustion and emotions running so high. We felt so helpless for Teddie, not being able to understand danger and risks that surround him, causing injuries to himself, even severe risks of choking hazards from chewing non-food items due to his Pica. Despite our best efforts to mitigate all risks and prevention, in the past his activity sadly led to a small house fire. Teddies development was also at a standstill.
"We searched and searched and never gave up and this is when we came across the UrZone bed from HKD Solutions. We spent hours looking at it. Finally, we approached them for a trial and everything was so easy from the moment we made contact. Our trial bed was delivered and this is where Teddieās new chapter unfolds.
"The trial bed came and as we un boxed it all we were instantly relieved to find a no stress policy of putting it together and felt so at ease. We were sceptical but very excited for Teddieās first night in new surroundings of bed, which also would keep him safe. With complex health problems the bed was easy to put together and so robust! Like nothing we had ever seen and the quality was amazing.
"Night one of this bed Teddie slept a record breaking 14 hours! We slept too and all felt so refreshed for a new day ahead and paramount, knew he was entirely safe from any harm or day to day dangers in the home.
"We completed Teddies trial and returned the bed and the strength it gave us back to fight for funding via his Occupational Therapist which wasn't easy, but being a SEN parent or a medically dependent child doesn't come with a manual it comes with love, and we fought with the amazing support from HKD Solutions and successfully Teddie now has a fully funded bed in place.
"Since Teddie has had the UrZone bed, not only does he still have 100% sleep succession rate for a full night's sleep, we as a family have been positively impacted in so many ways. This is huge, whilst his sleep has improved so has his development and speech from a non-verbal child to now learning how to put sentences together and slightly improved eating with his ARFID too, just in a short space of a few months. The smile on his face is worth more than the weight of all the hard times and challenges we faced. This Christmas, Teddie even has progressed so much he engages with his siblings and for the first time at Christmas sat and opened his own Christmas presents, this was something we really thought we wouldn't see for a long time. To some it's just a bed, but to us it gave us our life back and more importantly, changed and improved Teddieās life in such outstanding ways.
"We are so grateful to Heather and team at HKD Solutions for making this happen and giving us a new positive chapter in our sonās life, which we will be grateful for and remain in our hearts for a very long time and years to come. No questions are ever too big or small and HKD Solutions Ltd will give so much emotional support, and lengthy conversation in how to obtain a bed if it's right for you.
"Please never give up fighting for what you believe in and what is right for your child, there is never an impossibility in this life, there is always a way.
"Whilst I am aware there are other medical beds on the market and available, with lots of information and in-depth comparison and valuation, and also personal experience, the UrZone won us over and proved above and beyond expectation and has the highest standards of safety which was also paramount to us, as previously bereaved parents.
"Although words will never fully comprehend how life changing this was for us. I'm sure the pictures and videos speak more than words I could ever type.
"My grandson recently had one of these to go on holiday or stay at mine with. It is absolutely fantastic! I canāt recommend enough. Thank you for a brilliant idea to help with special needs children/adults."
"Great company to work with. Heather is a lovely person who is always available to give advice. Great quality bed . A life changer for both children and parents. Would highly recommend."
"I have had my UrZone a few months now and it's been great! It really helped me cope over Christmas with the changes in routine and was my own safe space to relax in that I could take myself to when I was feeling stressed out it really has been calming and I love it so much it's helped my autism but also my epilepsy too because it's a safe place I can be left on my own.
"Having some sensory down time in my URZONE bed I love it so much because of the black mesh it really makes u feel safe and in your own zone which I love because it's one I'm allowed to be in on my own instead of needing a carer here with me I am safe if I have a seizure and also safe if I get stressed so happy days for everyone! Thank u :) x
"Very cosy! Was really comfortable and has a safe feeling I love it in there in fact I wish I had it right now in the middle of shopping had to come back to the car because can't cope! Love my own space and had fibre optics in there before I went to sleep. I love my sensory items they are part of me and having an enclosed space made me feel so calm going to sleep I got to sleep in record time! Xx"
"Our son Jayden has been diagnosed with Global Development Delay and Autism (non-verbal). One of the most challenging aspects of Jaydenās Care for us as parents has been getting Jayden to sleep at night and also keeping him safe when he wakens up.
"Jayden was in a Travel cot until the age of 2. In a typical night Jayden would be awake from 1am-5am which became challenging on a constant basis. With his lack of understanding of danger, we got a giant special needs cot made for him. This was good when we were at home but unfortunately we couldnāt bring it with us on holidays so it was not possible to go on holidays as a whole family. Jayden is now 6 years old and with getting older, stronger and more exploring, Jayden figured out how to climb out of the specialized bed.
"We were looking for an alternative specialised cot, as the answer from our Health Care OT Department was to put him on a mattress on the floor and lock the door. We had no alternative for safety reasons, to resort to the mattress on the floor as the health care trust OT department would not provide a letter in support of another specialised cot even though a charity was fully funding it. Unfortunately, if we lived in any other trust area we would have had it funded by the health care trust.
"Psychologically this was not good for Jayden and started crying in the morning when he woke up. We had entered a Facebook competition to win a UrZone bed in the hope that we possible could win it as Jayden loves enclosed spaces and it looked like a fantastic bed for him. And amazingly our name was pulled from the hat! I would say it was probably the best phone call we have got in our life!
"The UrZone bed can be assembled in your house as a permanent fixture and better again, it folds all up into two suitcases and can be brought with us on holidays. This will ensure Jayden is safe at home and on holidays if he wakens up. Winning this bed means the world to us as Jayden feels happy and secure in his new environment and finally after 5 very long years we will be able to bring our whole family on holidays. A big thank you to HKD Solutions."
"I honestly can't thank Heather at HKD Solutions enough. From the moment I got in touch to talk about my sonās needs, to the process of applying for funding, to getting the bed delivered and set up, the customer service has been outstanding.
"My son loves his bed and night time is now no longer a fear and a battle. He happily climbs in, chooses what colour of lights he wants on and tells me to 'close the zip!' He is happier, more settled and when he wakes overnight I'm no longer worried if/how much he'll hurt himself. He settles himself during the day with a book or a toy in his quiet space there too. With 3 siblings it's his sanctuary some afternoons.
"I honestly couldn't be happier. We've booked our holiday away next year, knowing we have a solution for overnight that will make it an enjoyable holiday for everyone. Thank you so much Heather. Your support and help were invaluable. I can't recommend this bed enough."
"HKD Solutions recently allowed us to trial the URZONE bed, at The Rings, and what a success it was.
"My boy loved it when he first got it he played for around 4 hours in it, zipping himself in and out, playing with his toys and laughing all the time. We had one of the most restful, and long, nightās sleep for some time.
"Needless to say we have now ordered one. It is going to allow us to go anywhere we want as we will now be able to keep him safe at night in a bedroom. We are quite excited at the prospect of being able to drive down to Spain, stopping anywhere we want on the way. Brilliant product."
"We got our bed last week and itās AMAZING. Thank you."
"I canāt praise this product enough. My little girl bangs her head and this has become such a safe place for her. She can no longer hurt herself in bed which is a massive weight off all our shoulders as a family. She loves it too, took to it straight away which isnāt like Lucy as she hates change. Itās so comfortable and spacious.
"Heather is also one of the loveliest women I have ever spoken to and has taken time to speak to me for hours on the phone - not even regarding the bed as thereās been no issues, Just advice on other tips with having a child with autism. Sheās sent me links to products that would maybe help. Thank you so much Heather. You are so passionate about your UrZone travel bed and so rightly to be. Never felt so at ease for months than I have this week knowing my little girl is safe and sound in an amazing bed."
"My son recently got his own UrZone after trialling one for a week at Christmas. It is an absolute godsend!
"My son is Autistic and had to sleep in a tent bed prior to this and has gone through several as he can be very destructive when he wakes in the night. This has stopped that completely! He loves going to bed in the UrZone and sleeps so much better as he feels secure and comfortable. He also loves playing in it in the daytime and itās his little space to go to when everything gets too much for him downstairs!
"I cannot praise this bed enough. My son would not go to sleep in an uncovered bed and if I don't zip him in at night, he goes mad until it's done. He sleeps better for being in there, as do the rest of us! And as a result he is usually calmer during the day.
"I'd also like to thank Heather for all her help and advice along the way. She went above and beyond to help and itās so nice dealing with someone who can relate to the problems we've experienced at home. It was always a pleasure speaking to her on the phone. An amazing product from an amazing company! Thank you for everything!"
"Kyan loves his new bed!! The first sleep in it was so successful that we have overslept by 2 hours š but I donāt even care because thatās the best nights sleep weāve ever had I think š. And it was awesome to be able to check on him last night without disturbing him š. Weāre trying to get ready.... he just keeps getting back in bed š
"Itās a seriously amazing bed we love it. Kyan has slept 100% better since being in it, itās been a complete game changer!"
"My son is 11, has uncontrollable behaviour and strength. He is one of the most high care demands in our area - he requires 2 on 1 support.
"We have the UrZone and it is amazing for him. A life saver to be exact. He feels safe and happy in it but when he is at his worst the UrZone has not only protected him, but us as well."
"Amazing!!! This bed is a lifesaver!!"
"I cannot thank Heather enough. The urzone is so much more than a bed, its a reassurance that your child is going to be OK when you wake up. Its a good nights sleep for the whole family! So many parents put their child to bed at night without worrying about if their child will come to harm, I can now be one of those parents ā¤"
"Thank you so much Heather for the loan of the bed during the Angelman UK conference. What can I say but wow.
"The customer service from you both was amazing. Our son used the bed for two nights, both nights he requested to get in it and both nights he slept comfortable. Now Marti is usually a good sleeper but I feel the bed helped out a bit with this. He is a fidget sleeper so to knowing he was in a safe bed while in the hotel gave myself and Dad peace of mind, so we slept great too. THANK YOU."
"Fantastic Company from start to finish. Heather helped us get this life changing Bed for our Son Harrison who has Smith Magenis Syndrome. All the family suffered before we got the bed, as Harrisons Disability meant he was up a lot through the night and was banging on his door and all the family was struggling to get sleep.
"Now we are like a different family and Harrison loves it. He has is own little safe space where we know he is safe and we as a family are getting much needed sleep. Thank you so much for all your help."
"I can't praise the UrZone highly enough! We needed a bed to travel to a family funeral at very short notice, Heather kindly helped us out with a loan bed. We were nervous about our son actually getting in the bed, let alone sleeping......well we shouldn't have worried, he was so excited, thought it was a pirate ship and excitedly jumped straight in. We zipped him up and didn't hear anymore from him until the morning!
"We had easy access to change the band for his Pulseguard and to administer his midnight meds, all done without him waking up!
"We hadn't been able to have a break away from home for around 2 years as we couldn't keep our son safe and we found the UrZone whilst looking for a travel bed. John has Epilepsy, ASD, sleep disorder, central sleep apnoea, severe visual impairment, hearing impaired, profound learning disability to list some of his difficulties.
"We already had a Theraposture bed for at home and I wish we had known about the UrZone before! Our son had been kicking the doors when he wakes, which is anytime from 4am, the noise is unbearable and he knew we will go straight to him and let him out. When he's in the UrZone he has nothing that he can kick to make a noise, I think the fact it is all enclosed helps him to feel more secure as he is so relaxed when he's in it, he also loves the led lights which have different colours and settings.
"Anti-entrapment was a necessity for us due to his sleep disorder, he is very active during the night, and he has seizures. He even asks to go in it during the day, just lay's in it watching his iPad. I leave the side up so he can get in and out on his own, and I do a few jobs in the same room so I can keep an eye on him. At times he asks for the door to be shut, so I zip him in and manage to go and have a cup of tea in peace, which has never happened before!
"It really is an amazing piece of kit, it's adaptable to meet different needs and Heather is amazing, she will also help with funding if needed."
"After 2 years of interrupted sleep and no help from our OT's we stumbled across the UrZone.
"It has simply changed our lives. Jacob has a genetic issue which causes him to have high muscle tone and at time no vision at all. This leaves him extremely vulnerable over night if he gets out of bed.
"Our OT told us that he should sleep on the floor on a mattress with no other furniture in the room and that we remove the radiator and the room door. They advised that putting him in enclosed bed was cruel. Jacob loves his new bed, he sleeps all night, he's safe and secure.
"Even our local fire brigade love it, they came out to do a home check due to Jacobs disabilities and advised us in the event of a fire he was in the safest place, if he didn't have this bed how would we ever find him, and suggested if we can get to Jacob's room safely, we should all get in the bed with him and wait to be rescued.
"So thank you for changing our lives..."
"My boy got his bed delivered today and he loves it. It's amazing and meets all his needs. I love how safe and calm he is when heās in the bed. It will make such a difference for my family for my boy to be relaxed and happy in a safe comforting bed. Heather is an absolute godsend, I canāt thank her enough, sheās a lovely person! Thank you for helping me and my family. I'm so grateful xx."
"I canāt recommend these beds enough and Heather really is amazing and canāt do enough to help you out. Thank you for all your help Heather and to everyone involved at HKD Solutions š"
"We were very fortunate to receive a UrZone bed and my daughter is absolutely delighted with it! We have just had the first night and she loves it and had the most amazing sleep! Thank you to Heather! Xx."
"I love this bed, my son is so happy with it, he's had a new decorated bedroom and his new bed and today was the first time he has seen it. I have one very happy boy xxxx."
"Heather went above and beyond in helping me get a UrZone when I needed one most. She loaned me one when I was at crisis point and then helped me obtain funding for my own. This bed has been life changing for me and my 2 girls, now we can all sleep in peace ā thank you Heather xxx.
"She loves it Heather and quite often throughout the day takes me up so she can have a lie down in itšI cannot thank you enough xxx."
"My son absolutely loves his bed! Heather was so helpful and assisted us to gain full funding from a local charity. She went above and beyond, keeping us informed throughout the process, and we wouldnāt hesitate in recommending the UrZone!
"Weāve used it at home for the last 2 years and have taken it on holiday. Itās truly life changing."
"In such a small amount of time this bed has worked wonders! Our son actually Sleeps and doesnāt get up through the night with this bed! He hasnāt destroyed it or hurt himself on it which is amazing! Our son has had such a deep sleep and he was actually snoring and didnāt get up until 7:45am!
"Usually with a bad sleep our son gets very violent and self harms and is constantly having meltdowns but not in this bed. We all feel so safe that this bed is actually calming him and making him feel relaxed and comforted. Heās waking happier and actually listening to us!
"Heather is amazing and goes above and beyond and her incredible bed has performed a miracle! Thank you so much to you Heather! Cannot recommend enough xxx."
"Anyone with autistic/ special needs children will know that sleeping well just isnāt something kids with special needs do, big bags under your eyes and being major forgetful because of tiredness becomes the norm and you learn to get by with little or no sleep.
"My little Angelina has only needed 1-2 hours sleep a night at most since she was born (7 years ago). I was told about this UrZone bed at a team around the child meeting and told how amazing it would be. I have to be honest I was a little sceptical that it would work. Iām happy to say I was wrong.
"After getting this bed a couple of weeks ago it has completely changed everything, Angelina loves it, she gets in it each night and has her apple, toast and cartoon before bed then waits on us to zip it up and goes to sleep. Yes she gets up during the night still but now either goes back to sleep or dozes on and off until itās time to get up as she knows sheās in her UrZone to sleep. She gets up in the morning for school with no problem and isn't falling asleep at school, meaning sheās making the most of her school day. Iām not yawning constantly at work and Iām loving having a proper nights sleep again knowing my little princess is sound asleep and is safe in her bed.
"Sorry again about the long post just needed to share this with people, anyone with special needs kids this is a lifesaver"
"I would recommend this incredible UrZone to any family in need who struggle with children with zero danger awareness. This UrZone has saved my daughterās life - she ended up in hospital from climbing out of her cot. She has ASD. She has gone from 2 hours sleep to 12 hours and wakes up smiling. She used to rock and head bang and cry and scream all night, to the point where we had noise complaints. Itās helped our family so much as well as her development. We would not cope without a UrZone. We moved house recently and her UrZone kept her routine - not one meltdown.
"Itās above all any special/safety beds. This UrZone saves and helps lives. Please try and you will know the happiness itās brought into our lives."
"A fantastic company to deal with. They listen and provide a service that is second to none.
"The UrZone which we trialled and now own, is amazing and canāt recommend it highly enough. No more night time Houdini episodes so a safe peaceful night all round. Peace and reassurance for us as parents and a calm safe environment for our son. Thank you all x."
"We got out UrZone bed for roughly a month. It has been amazing for my sanity as I know my daughter is safe in bed and cannot hurt herself. Heather was so helpful throughout the whole purchase. Bonus that my daughter loves the bed also. X."
"Another fantastic weekend away, all made possible thanks to the fabulous UrZone bed which goes everywhere with us. Iāve lost count of how many years weāve had this dream bed but it has made life so much more enjoyable for us all.
"We no longer have to barricade ourselves in at night when we are away or have to worry about coming home feeling exhausted because we always get a good nights sleep where ever we go with this bed. Awesome."
"Ethan is 8 years old and has been using his UrZone for about 5 months. With a combination of autism, significant learning difficulties and cerebral palsy his sleep has always been a massive issue. Despite resisting the change for the first couple of nights he quickly became accustomed to his new bed and he is very happy with his UrZone.
"We believe his UrZone has improved his sleep - but the more important change has been in how he behaves when he wakes overnight; rather than 'happy bouncing' around the room, banging walls and the metal stair-gate, and deriving sensory stimulation from anything and nothing, he is now calmer (with some bouncing!) and far less capable of overstimulating. He is also safer - not managing to find danger from the most basic of items in his bedroom - and doesn't attack carpets and fixtures.
"We're very happy that we made the decision to get a UrZone and Ethan seems to agree!"
"The UrZone bed is absolutely amazing. Heather who has been a great help loaned us an emergency bed for our son when we were in crisis. It has been life changing and has helped us in obtaining Baileyās very own UrZone.
"We now have piece of mind knowing that Bailey is safe from harm and we can all get a good nightās sleep - and he happily gets in it. Thank you so much. Heather has been brilliant throughout. A big than you Heather and HKD Solutions."
"Absolutely amazing product! Within a normal humanās budget so not silly prices. My daughter slept for the 1st time in 7 years and was happy. She didnāt fight us to sleep and drop off as a result of a burn out. She happily went to sleep.
"She has Ehlos Danlos syndrome causing no end of pain, autism and ADHD, and can very dangerous to herself and others. She also has oral allergy syndrome and at times has tried to sneak down to steal food knowing it could actually kill her!
"We have actually had a nightās sleep knowing sheās safe and happy. I highly recommend. Easy to put up and the communication is second to none. Heather will literally message straight away if youāre struggling!! Thanks so much. Will deffo be getting my own. xx."
This family now have a UrZone of their own!
"I have an eight year old boy with quite severe cerebral palsy. We desperately needed a bed Michael was safe in!
"Michaelās Occupational Therapist discovered the UrZone Beds. Itās been life changing! Before we had the bed Michael would hurt himself on his old cot like bed, and he had started to pull himself over the sides which was very dangerous.
"Now he is contained and happy in bed. The soft fabric side mean he doesnāt hurt himself. They are durable so he isnāt damaging the bed. He can move around as much as he wants and as carers we can relax a bit more in the evening knowing heās safe."
