Mattresses in children's sizes range from baby to junior and onwards to teenager. The selection includes foam mattresses, cold foam, latex and hybrid variants – all with a focus on support, comfort and good ventilation. A good mattress for children should be firm and ensure the correct lying position, while also being easy to keep clean. Many have removable covers and hypoallergenic properties. Regardless of age, good sleep is crucial for well-being and development. A quality mattress is an investment in the child's night's sleep and well-being.

At Mammashop, we have many different mattresses for children. When buying a children's mattress, it is important first and foremost to know the sleeping dimensions of the bed in question. Some junior beds measure 70x160, while other beds measure 60x140 cm, so it is incredibly important that you first measure what size mattress fits your particular bed.
Unfortunately, we often find that many people think that mattress dimensions for a children's bed are the same regardless of brand. At Mammashop, you will find children's mattresses from several well-known brands.

With us, you will find mattresses for children in all the most popular and common sizes. For example, you will find mattresses in 80x200 cm, 90x200 cm and 160x70 centimetres, as well as mattresses that also fit cot beds, prams and much more.
It can often be difficult to choose which mattress you need for your children's bed. To make it easier for you, we have listed a few points here that you should be aware of and consider before choosing the mattress you need for your child.
If you look at our selection, you will quickly discover that we have the same type of mattress in several different thicknesses. For example, we have a Hoppekids mattress in two different thicknesses, but made from the same material. The two thicknesses are 9 cm and 12 cm respectively. The only difference between the two children's mattresses is the thickness.
A question we therefore often receive in customer service is: Which thickness should I choose?
And the answer may seem simple, but it is not quite so. This is because legislation determines which thickness you need.
If you have a loft bed, there are rules regarding how many centimetres there must be between the top of the mattress and the top of the bed edge. The minimum height here is important in relation to the child's safety, so the child does not fall over the bed rail and onto the floor.
We therefore always recommend that if you have a bed where the child sleeps high up (either a high-, mid- or mid-sleeper bed), you should definitely choose the thin mattress. In this case, a thickness of 9 cm.
What many people do not consider is that children do not weigh very much and generally do not have the same requirements for sleeping comfort as adults. If you buy a 9 cm thick mattress, you will find that the child cannot compress the mattress fully when sleeping – nor can an adult. The difference between 9-12 cm therefore has no significance in terms of sleeping comfort, but only in terms of safety.
When choosing the children's mattress you want, you should double-check that the sleeping dimensions match the bed you have. We always recommend measuring the internal dimensions of the bed (width and length) and then choosing the mattress that fits your particular bed.
Far too many people assume that all junior beds have the same sleeping dimensions and therefore that all ”mattresses for junior beds” fit my junior bed. However, this is far from the case.
