Sleep is precious and important – especially for babies and small children. However, getting our little ones to sleep and stay asleep can be tricky, especially when curveballs like sleep regression get in the way. But you don’t have to let a hard, uncomfortable mattress become one of those obstacles. Sleep experts recommend that you provide your baby with a firm mattress as this is the safest option for little ones, but that doesn't mean uncomfortable. At Kiddies Kingdom we stock a wide range of mattresses that will help your baby settle in their sleep space.
Our range of ultra-comfy mattresses for cots, cot beds, beds and travel cots from the likes of Snuz and ClevaMama will help your babe drift off to dreamland much quicker. Add some cosy bedding into the mix and you’ll soon have the recipe for the perfect night’s sleep for your baby. Sleep experts recommend only using a firm mattress and a fitted sheet until your baby is around 12 months old, as this is the safest way for them to sleep. Once your little one reaches 12 months old, choose one of our cotton blankets as this material is super breathable, helping your baby to regulate their temperature through the night.
To keep your baby snug and warm during the night, we recommend using a baby sleeping bag that is designed to safely encase your little one without the risk of covering their face while they sleep. The sleeping bags available on our website come in a range of designs, colours, sizes and togs so you can switch them regularly. Once your baby is a little older, you can switch from a sleeping bag to a cosy blanket and introduce other bedding essentials and accessories such as pillows.

We have carefully selected the mattresses we stock on our website for their innovative safety and comfort features. Whether you're looking for a mattress for a Moses basket, bedside crib, cot, cot bed or toddler bed, we have mattresses that are made to the correct firmness and standard to protect your precious little snoozer and to keep them comfortable whilst they sleep.
Just like choosing the right mattress for an adult bed, a child's mattress is essential to achieving a good night's rest. As children are always growing, they require the correct postural support, including neck and back protection. To make this possible, we provide mattresses suitable for all sleeping stages of children.
This includes mattresses for cot beds, cots, cribs, and travel cots, as well as the option to have custom designs made for bespoke sleeping setups. Each suits the size and usability of each different type of bed. Children's mattresses are also available in a variety of materials to suit different ages and sleeping preferences, including pocket-sprung or memory foam.
This decision is usually made for you as mattress designs account for the current needs of a child using it. For example, cot mattresses are slightly firmer than they should keep a baby in one position. Toddler designs will probably include springs to allow more movement. Choosing a mattress with the correct support levels is essential for promoting healthy growth and enhancing comfort at night.
Mattresses for children are long lasting in terms of lifespan but also the quality of their condition. This means by choosing the right product and looking after it well, it will last for the entire time that a child needs it. For older children, the replacements can mimic that of an adult with a new mattress being recommended between five and ten years to ensure its ongoing comfort and quality.
It should also be noted that child mattresses are made from materials that help with this issue. This includes being waterproof, durable, and breathable to ensure the condition remains good. You should regularly check the condition of a mattress to make sure there are no signs of wear and damage.
The main thing to plan for when choosing a new mattress for a baby or child is ensuring it's the correct design for their current bed. Anything that doesn't offer the intended support, or that fits incorrectly, can leave a child exposed to risks of injury.
All mattresses should also be assessed for safety testing and adherence, as only suitable items should be used. This means that factors such as breathability and ergonomics have been accounted for, giving you more peace of mind as a parent.
Mattresses can be regularly cleaned to ensure they remain in great condition. This includes both spot cleaning and deeper cleans, which are ideal to carry out with a steam cleaner to avoid any moisture from being left behind.
They should also be left to air out regularly to ensure any dampness is removed. This also allows the filling to be reinvigorated for an improved sleep experience.
