Hearing Aid Pilot Cap | Hat for deaf/hard of hearing children

We know the struggles of keeping hearing devices on babies and toddlers. The pilot cap (or hearing aid hat) is the perfect solution to prevent your child from attempting to remove their hearing aids.

The hearing aid pilot cap keeps your child's hearing aid in place - allowing for optimum hearing, while reducing the risk of a lost hearing aid or any potential choking hazards.

The Hearing Aid Pilot Cap is made of a soft stretchy fabric to keep your child's hearing aid gently in place, ensuring it stays put during playdates, childcare and adventures galore. The adjustable chin strap (3 snap closures) guarantees a personalized fit - so your little superstar can dance, explore, and imagine with sheer confidence. 

As all children are different, we recommend choosing the size of the pilot cap based on the measurements of your child's head circumference rather than their age. 

It is also important to note that your children's ears and hearing aids need to be kept clean at all times. We also know that child's play is messy! We suggest purchasing at least two pilot caps so that you have a clean one on hand at all times.

• Comes in a cute matching drawstring pouch to keep it clean/ take on the go 
  
• Adjustable chin strap with 3 snap closures for a comfortable, custom fit.

Disclaimer: Please note that our size guide is an approximate guide only. All head sizes, shapes and dimensions differ for each individual. The hat should be a snug fit to keep hearing aids in place. However, if the hat appears to be too tight and causes lines or indents onto the head, please discontinue use and move to the next size up.

Hats may be exchanged if after trying on, the size is incorrect- the hang tag must still be attached and the hat must be in its original, unused condition. Customer will be responsible for return postage costs.

Warning: For safety reasons, always remove pilot cap before putting your child to sleep. Snap closures could present a choking hazard if removed or chewed on.
