G-tube covers are a lifesaver if your little one has a g-tube.
It’s the ULTIMATE solution to keep your kiddo’s hands away from their g-tube while allowing you easy access to feed 
them, change them, or clean around the area.
My nephew was in the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) for 7 months after he was born in 2014 and he still has his g-tube today.
My sister swore by using a cover around his g-tube early on when he was little to prevent him from messing around with it. Plus, she didn’t want him pulling it out of his belly which is a whole different ball game.
If you have a kiddo with a g-tube and are looking for fun HIGH quality covers to protect them that they’ll enjoy wearing then you have come to the right place (and thank you so much for being here)!
Throughout this post I’m going to provide you a list of some budget-friendly and ADORABLE g-tube covers on the market today (in no particular order).
It’s important to know that I only recommend items I truly believe in based upon in-depth research, reviews, and/or personal experience. My intention is to equip you with the knowledge and information you need to make the BEST purchasing choice for your precious one.
So let’s explore several of the TOP G-tube covers for kids. 🙂
Ian’s Choice Organic Cotton Pads for Feeding
Price: ==> Click here for the BEST current price <== | Size(s): 1 size (includes pack of 12) | Overall Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
If you’re looking for a pad covering that is environmentally friendly and doesn’t break your bank account, this may be a great option for you.
I love the fact that these g-tubes pads are made out of organic cotton which means they are VERY soft (which is less irritation to your little one’s skin) and absorbent.
The cotton pad will trap any fluid that may happen around the g-tube area which will quickly absorb. You can wash it countless time to reuse it again.
The design was perfectly thought out. If you’re thinking the pads will be bulging under your kiddo’s clothes think again! The covering is made to lie flat to fit around the g-tube snug and secure.
Plus, the button is made from BPA free metal rather than plastic.
Takeaway tip: The pad measures about 2 1/2 inches wide. These are not waterproof. It is suggested to air dry them after you put them in the washer.
Cutie Button G-Tube Pads (Trucks/Cars)
Price: ==> Click here for the BEST current price <== | Size(s): 1 size (includes pack of 7) | Overall Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
These pad designs come in a variety of adorable truck and car patterns!
If your little one is a fan of truck or car toys they will love rocking out one of these Cuttie Button pads to wear.
The pads are made out of 100% extra plush polyester fleece on top and bamboo on the flip side (which touches your little one’s skin). What this means is the material will be super soft to protect against skin irritation and it’s lightweight.
The material is made to quickly absorb any stomach fluids or formula that might leak out around the tube area.
Takeaway tip: The pad measures 3 inches round.
Cutie Button G-Tube Pads (Girl Mix)
Price: ==> Click here for the BEST current price <== | Size(s): 1 size (includes pack of 7) | Overall Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
These fun patterned g-tube covers are called the ‘girl mix’.
The pads come in an array of pretty light colors such as pink, purple, blue, and orange. The designs are super cute!
These pads have the same qualities as the above Cutie Button (Trucks/Cars) covers.
I’m not going to bore you with the exact same lingo but in a nutshell, they are made out of 100% plush polyester fleece.
The material is VERY soft to protect your little one’s skin from irritation and redness.
Again, the covers are lightweight so it will fit comfortably around your kiddo’s g-tube without weighing it down. Plus, the material is made to quickly absorb any stomach fluids or formula that might leak out around the tube area.
Takeaway tip: The pad measures 3 inches round. You can machine wash and air drying is suggested.
Paw Patrol G-Tube Belt and Pad Bundle
Price: ==> Click here for the BEST current price <== | Size(s): 2 sizes (19″-23″ and 22″-25″) | Overall Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
If your kiddo is a Paw Patrol fan this adorable g-tube bundle may be right up their ally!
What’s great about this high quality bundle is it includes one paw patrol feeding tube belt, one dinosaur belt, and a bonus paw patrol pad to secure your little one’s g-tube in place.
Parents rave about how comfortable the material is on their child which is super soft and durable.
As one parent shares, “Your child will love you more if you get these! Wonderful quality! The pockets are great and no concern of it tearing. Velcro is high quality, not the cheap stuff. Fits my 5 year old good. Within the next couple years we’ll need a larger size. Shipped faster than it said!”
Takeaway tip: The manufacturer recommends for the best fit to measure around your child’s tube in a seated position. You should purchase a belt with at least 2 additional inches for growth. Due to the personal nature of these products the belts are not able to be returned or refunded as all sales are final.
Here is another cute g-tube belt and pad bundle for the Minnie Mouse lovers which has the same features that I just mentioned above.
Unicorn G-Tube Belt
Price: ==> Click here for the BEST current price <== | Size(s): Customized for your child | Overall Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
If your kiddo keeps playing with their g-tube the belt may be a wonderful option for you.
Reason being, the belt will completely cover and protect your child’s g-tube belly area to keep them from messing around with it. It will keep their g-tube safely positioned to prevent the risk of them popping it 
out.
Yikes, that would be a disaster!
Well not a complete disaster because you can still insert it yourself, but who wants to mess around with that?
If the g-tube DID come out, it would need to be replaced within a certain time period (usually 30 minutes) to prevent the stoma opening from closing up quickly. If that did happen, your child would most likely need surgery again to get it reinserted.
Sorry for my little side tangent, but I wanted to mention the importance. Now back to the adorable Unicorn G-Tube Belt. 🙂
Here are features to make note of:
- Each belt is customized to fit your child’s measurements
- Made from a cute cotton print, soft flannel lining and velcro closures which allow you to simply adjust the size
- The belt has a flap to allow you easy access to the button and loop on each side of the flap to secure your tubing
- Can easily open and close using the three snaps
- Measures 4.5″ high by your chosen length and come with a set of two matching tube pads
- Hand wash or wash on ‘cold’ in your machine and then tumble dry on low heat
Takeaway tip: To order the correct size, measure around your kiddo’s stomach with a tape measure as well as around the area of the button. The manufacturer states to, “choose the length from the drop down box according to your measurement. Do NOT add or subtract inches as they will automatically add length to allow for your child’s growth.” Since the item is custom-made for your child, returns and cancellations are not accepted.
Also, here is another charming g-tube belt I wanted to share for the sports lovers which has the same features I mentioned about the ‘Unicorn G-Tube Belt” above.
Unicorn Hearts G-tube Pillow Belt for Infant Tummy Time
Price: ==> Click here for the BEST current price <== | Size(s): Customized for your child | Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
The Unicorn pillow is so cute and will allow your precious one to enjoy tummy time with their g-tube!
There are not many tummy time pillows in the market today that offer a customizable feature for g-tube infants which is why this is worth mentioning.
Your little one can enjoy laying on their tummy comfortably because the pillow is soft yet firm enough to wrap around them to offer support (just like a g-tube belt).
Some features to make note of:
- There is a small hole in the pillow so your kiddo can lay on their stomach without putting pressure on and causing irritation to their button or mic-key
- Made out of a cotton print and a soft flannel back
- Secures with Velcro to adjust when your baby grows
- Comes with a set of 2 matching g-tube pads (3 inches)
- Can fit a waist up to 24 inches
- The pillow measures 6″H x 6″W
- The hole is 2.75″ in diameter
Takeaway tip: To order the correct size, measure around your child’s stomach with a tape measure. Since the item is custom-made for your child, returns and cancellations are not accepted.
Also, here is another darling wilderness g-tube pillow belt that I wanted to share. It has the same features as everything I just mentioned above for the ‘Unicorn Heart G-tube Pillow Belt’.

Lindsey,
This is such an informative and helpful review of the high quality, adorable, and budget-friendly options for kids who use g-tube. I think it is important for parents to pay attention to not only caring for the g-tube but also create a great and positive experience for their child who lives with g-tube. Having the belt and g-tube covers will not only make parents less stressful but it will also help the child to go through their day with ease, fun, and comfortable experience.
I think I saw somewhere on the internet a story of a mom named Tiffany who is making fleece pads for her daughter. She and her husband create a small business and promote their products for children with feeding tube on their website.
On my 24th week of pregnancy, my baby was diagnosed by the doctor that she would be born with down syndrome. So, I have read some information on the internet just to be ready with the birth defect my baby might have. Thankfully, she was born alright and the thing that they saw in her heart that might cause down syndrome was gone.
I have bookmarked your website for future reference and I will share it with moms group on Facebook.
Cheers,
Ferra
Ferra, thank you so much for sharing your story and for the kind words! It means a lot. It definitely can be a scary time when you get news like that, but I’m so glad to hear your little one is doing well. It was great to connect with you and hope to see you back soon. 🙂
This article was very well written. I have a friend whose child is a g-tube baby, and it is very hard to keep them from messing with their tube. This is an easy and fantastic way to help prevent them from harming themselves! I’ll definitely be recommending this to her. Thank you! 🙂
Thank you so much Karissa! Glad you found value in the post and love to hear when it can help another warrior. 🙂
Though I am an expecting mom but definitely, looking out for all of these would not hurt to put in place in advance. I actually like the way you have reviewed and presented the various products in here that are geared toward ensuring proper cover for kids when engaging in activities. I like the review about Cutie Button G-Tube Pads (Trucks/Cars) the most from in here. Thanks
Wonderful Sherry glad you enjoyed! Thanks for sharing your thoughts about my post. 🙂
These are really wonderful stuffs to get for out kids and I feel cheated that I wasn’t privileged to make use of these when I was a kid. I would be really happy to see my younger sister, make use of these for her kids since she is new mother and would really have need for such items. Thanks for sharing this really wonderful article
Thanks Bella! So glad you found the post helpful and I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. 🙂
Wow!! This is nice i must say, I know my kids would love any of this once, although making a choice would be quite hard as they are all top notch…thanks a lot for sharing this awesome article I know it would be of great help to the public as it ha been of help to me.
Thanks for sharing! So glad you enjoyed the post. 🙂
Well, I’m long past being around babies, and it took me a couple of minutes just to figure out what you meant by a g-tube. I did figure it out, and think that yet again someone has come up with a cool idea to make babies happier and to protect them from any infection or harm.
I love the designs! Someone must have had fun creating those. Being from Alaska, I especially like the “wilderness” one. Though not something I’m likely to buy any time soon, at least I know about them now, and if friends have babies and need such a device, I can tell them about your site.
Thanks Fran! I appreciate you sharing your feedback and thoughts. 🙂
