FAQs

Selecting the appropriate bed size depends on your child's age, size, and room dimensions:

  • Toddler beds: Ideal for children transitioning from a cot, typically aged 2 to 4 years.
  • Small single beds: These measure 2'6" x 6'3" (75cm x 190cm) and are a good option for smaller rooms or younger children.
  • Single beds: A standard choice for most children, measuring 3'0" x 6'3" (90cm x 190cm), offering enough space for comfort as they grow.
  • Small double beds: Measuring 4'0" x 6'3" (120cm x 190cm), these are suitable for growing children or those who move around a lot during sleep.
  • Standard double beds: Measuring 4'6" x 6'3" (135cm x 190cm), these beds provide extra room for older children or teenagers who may need more space.

When choosing, consider your child's size and how much room they need to grow, along with the available space in their room.

To ensure safety, we recommend the following age ranges for children's beds:

  • Cot beds – Suitable for children aged 2 and under.
  • Toddler beds – Ideal for children aged 2 to 4.
  • Low sleepers – Best for children aged 4+.
  • Mid sleepers – Suitable for children aged 6+.
  • High sleepers – Best for children aged 6+.
  • Bunk beds – Top bunk: ages 6+, bottom bunk: ages 3+.

Taller beds, such as mid-sleepers or bunk beds, require children to be able to get in and out of bed safely, often with a ladder. Younger children may struggle or find it unsafe, so lower beds are recommended to minimise the risk of injury.

As a general rule, once children no longer need a cot, it's best to choose beds that are close to the ground to reduce the chance of injury if they roll out during the night.

Safety is a top priority when choosing a bed for your child. Consider the following features to ensure the bed is safe and durable:

  • Guard rails: Essential for elevated beds like bunk beds or high sleepers, guard rails help prevent falls and keep your child secure while they sleep.
  • Quality materials: Ensure the bed is made from high-quality, durable materials, such as knot-free solid pine wood, which is strong, safe, and perfect for active use.
  • Compliant design: The bed should meet all relevant safety standards, including proper spacing between guard rails to prevent entrapment and smooth, rounded edges to avoid sharp corners.
  • Non-toxic finishes: Choose beds that use non-toxic paints or varnishes to protect your child from exposure to harmful chemicals.
  • Anti-tip features: For added safety, check if the bed includes anti-tip mechanisms, especially for higher beds like loft beds or mid-sleepers.

Montessori bed is a type of children's bed designed based on the Montessori educational philosophy. This method, developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, emphasizes independence, freedom, and self-directed learning.
