FAQ — Mattresses

What type of mattress is best for newborns?

Newborns typically need a firm, supportive mattress with a breathable design and a snug fit in the cot. Foam, fibre and pocket-sprung options are all suitable when safety standards are met.

Are cot mattresses temperature regulating?

Some mattresses include breathable cores or cooling layers to help regulate temperature during sleep — helpful for babies who run warm or for seasonal changes.

Can I use a second-hand cot mattress?

It’s generally recommended to buy new for hygiene and safety reasons. If reusing, ensure it’s firm, clean, and has no impressions or damage.

Do cot mattresses come with washable covers?

Many cot and cot bed mattresses include removable, washable or wipe-clean covers for easier hygiene. Always check individual product descriptions for care instructions.

Do babies need a firm cot mattress?

Yes. A firm, supportive mattress is recommended for newborns and young babies as it helps support safe sleep. Soft mattresses can allow the baby to sink in, which is not considered safe for infant sleep.







Are cot bed mattresses suitable for newborns?

Yes — cot bed mattresses can be used from birth as long as the cot bed is set to the correct height and meets current safety standards. Many parents choose cot beds to save money and avoid multiple upgrades.





What size mattress do I need for my cot or cot bed?

Cot and cot bed mattresses typically follow UK standard sizes, but sizing can vary by brand. Always check your cot’s internal measurements to ensure a snug fit with no gaps larger than 3cm.





Are breathable baby mattresses safer?

Breathable materials help with temperature regulation and airflow, making sleep more comfortable. Breathability is a popular feature among modern baby mattress designs, especially for warm sleepers.







How long does a cot bed mattress last?

A cot bed mattress may last from newborn through to 4–5 years (model dependent). If reusing for a second baby, safety guidance recommends replacing if the mattress shows wear, sagging, or staining.
