Cot Beds

What is a cot bed?

A cot bed is a clever, adaptable sleep solution that grows with your little one. With adjustable features like a drop-down base and removable side rails, it’s designed to support them from baby to toddler. Not only is a convertible cot bed a practical, cost-effective choice, it also creates a snug, secure space for your child to sleep comfortably as they grow, giving you peace of mind that they’re always supported and safe.

What size is a cot bed?

Most UK cot beds measure approximately 140cm x 70cm, offering more space than a traditional cot to support older infants and toddlers and to support a standard cot bed mattress. We also offer cot bed and mattress sets for easy pairing and a perfect night’s sleep.

What age is a cot bed for?

Cot beds are suitable from birth right through to toddlerhood until your child is ready to transition to a regular bed. Once your baby starts sitting up or standing, a baby cot bed is the perfect secure space to support their early development. When they’re ready for more independence, simply remove the sides to create a comfy toddler cot bed that gives them freedom to climb in and out.

When should my child move from a cot to a bed?

When to move from a cot to a bed depends on your child’s development and growth. Most parents make the change between 18 months and 3 years. Look for signs like your little one trying to climb out or outgrowing the space. An adjustable cot bed provides the ideal middle ground, allowing you to remove the sides, helping to transition your toddler to a more traditional sleep environment while maintaining a consistent and familiar space.

What are the different types of cot beds?

We offer both traditional cot bed frames and sleigh cot beds to suit your nursery and your little one’s needs. Our cot beds with drawers and storage make it easy to keep essentials like nappies and blankets on hand, while adjustable height settings ensure the cot grows with your child. Features like teething rails also help protect little gums, ensuring complete safety both while asleep and awake.

What materials and styles do cot beds come in?
