Mattresses for children's beds and bunk beds

Children spend a huge part of their growing years asleep, and a supportive, well-fitting mattress is a simple way to make that time count. This collection brings together mattresses for children's beds, cabin beds, loft beds and bunk beds, in sizes that suit the frames families actually buy.

Check the fit first

Bunk and loft beds are often built for mattresses of a limited depth, and a mattress that is too thick can reduce the safety barrier around the top bunk. Check the manufacturer's maximum mattress depth for your bed, and choose a mattress that stays below it. Most children's beds take a single or small single mattress, though some are European single, which is longer.

What suits growing bodies

A medium to medium firm feel is a sensible starting point. It supports a growing body without feeling hard. A pocket sprung mattress offers breathable support, while foam options are lightweight and easy to move when changing bedding.

Allergy-friendly options

Children with sensitivities often do better with a hypoallergenic cover and a mattress that can be kept clean easily. Look for removable or wipe-clean fabrics, and wash bedding regularly.

Spills and accidents happen

With younger children, easy-care surfaces are a practical advantage. For the budget-conscious, cheap mattresses include simple single sizes that suit growing kids and guest rooms alike.
