Choosing a quality cot mattress is essential to ensure your child gets the best quality sleep. The best cot mattresses are made with natural fibres such as cotton, wool or organic latex and should be breathable, preventing your baby from overheating.

Check for features such as a sturdy construction, an edge raised to prevent your toddler from climbing out of bed and the capability to lower its base when it starts to stand up.
It is also important to ensure that your cot bed is safe for use with an ordinary fitted sheet and that the mattress is of the correct size. The recommended dimensions for the mattress for cots are 140cm by 70cm. This is bigger than the normal single mattress.
