Style Design

Many cot beds are made to adapt to the changing needs of your child, with adjustable mattress heights, and the possibility to convert into single or toddler beds.

Choosing a quality cot mattress is essential to ensure that your child has the best sleep possible. The best mattress for cots is made from natural fibres, such as cotton, wool, or organic latex. It should also be breathable so that your baby does not overheat. Avoid PU foam mattresses as they are often cheaper but have a limited lifespan and are degraded quickly, particularly when they are wet.

By removing the side rails from the bed for a cot it is possible to convert it into the bed of a toddler. This will give your child the independence to get up and down from bed independently. The Leander Linea cot and the Stokke Sleepi Mini have this capability and the slats can be removed once your toddler has outgrown the cot.

When purchasing a new cot, be sure that it meets the safety standards set by the industry and government. Check for features such as solid construction, a raised edge to prevent your toddler from falling out of bed cot wooden and the ability to lower the base once it begins to rise up.

It is also important to ensure that your cot bed is safe for use with a standard fitted sheet, and that the mattress is the correct size. The ideal dimensions for the mattress of a cot are 140cm by 70cm. This is bigger than the normal single mattress.

Sturdy Construction

When preparing your baby's arrival, there are many things to think about. From the nursery to clothing and feeding routines there are many possibilities and choices to be made. The mattress in the cot is one of the most important.

Cot mattresses should be strong enough to support the infants and tiny babies. They also need to be responsive to movement, pressure, and turning. Cheap foam and sprung mattresses tend to deform quickly and aren't as flexible as a pocket spring or a coir mattress coated with latex that will last longer and is kinder on your baby's spine.

It is essential to check the mattress height when selecting a white and wooden cot bed. This will allow your baby to expand. This safety feature can encourage your child to climb in and out of bed on their own. This will also provide them with a sense of independence and boost their self-esteem as they start to learn to master the art of getting into and out of bed.

A high-quality cot bed can also be transformed into a toddler bed which will help to extend its lifespan and reduce the cost of replacements down the line. The Oliver Furniture Wood cot is an example of this, offering adjustable mattress heights as well as short grid side rails, and three bars that are removable so that it can be used from birth right through toddler years.
