All You Need to Consider Before Selecting a Mattress for Your Baby


First-time parents particularly are filled with inquiries when selecting baby items for their infants. During the initial months of a baby's life, they predominantly reside in their crib, making the selection of this item paramount.

Selecting a baby crib necessitates coupling it with a high-quality, long-lasting mattress. It's essential to underscore that the mattress serves as a pivotal element in ensuring the child's healthy sleep and proper development.

Embarking on the journey of parenthood can often be overwhelming, characterized by numerous uncertainties, a sense of loss, newfound responsibilities, and more. To alleviate this transitional period, the Labebe Boutique not only offers premium products but also extends support to parents.

Choosing the right bed and mattress for a child is also a multifaceted process that demands thorough deliberation. A suitable mattress is synonymous with safety, comfort, and peace of mind. Within this blog, you'll discover comprehensive insights into children's mattresses, aiding in your selection of the optimal model.


How can I select the appropriate mattress for my infant?

When contemplating a new crib and mattress for your baby or making your initial purchase, it's crucial to assess certain essential qualities to guarantee the ideal selection for your child.

Orthopedic Mattress

During the period from birth until around 10-12 months of age, it is recommended to provide the child with an orthopedic mattress. This type of mattress offers a firm and completely flat surface, which is essential for the still developing spine of the child.

A firm mattress made with coconut and sisal materials helps in ensuring proper spinal alignment, aiding in its swift formation and reducing the risk of potential injuries

Anatomic Mattress

As the child progresses in age, transitioning to an anatomical mattress becomes appropriate. An anatomical mattress is characterized by its relative softness and is suitable for later stages of development when the child's spine has begun to take its natural shape.

This type of mattress conforms to the contours of the body and spine, offering optimal comfort for the baby. Such a design encourages healthy sleep patterns and enhances the child's energy levels. It's crucial that the surface of the baby anatomical mattress is crafted from natural latex for added benefits.

Materials Used in Mattress Production:

Every choice we make for our children should reflect high quality, skilled craftsmanship, and care, and selecting a mattress for children is no different.

Plitex mattresses are crafted from eco-friendly materials employing innovative technologies, available at the Labebe with varying surface densities.

These materials include latex coconut fiber, compressed syntepon, hypoallergenic filling, highly elastic foam, and others. They prioritize the child's health and ensure the product's longevity, suitable for many years until the child outgrows it and transitions to a teen bed.

For instance, the Plitex Magic Flex model, constructed with foam, provides an exceptional sleeping environment. The fillings in this mattress carry the German quality certification Oeko-Tex Standard 100 class 1, the highest safety standard, confirming its suitability for use with newborns.

Mattress Shapes and Sizes

With the wide array of baby cribs available in the market, the mattress shape is contingent upon the chosen bed. At the Labebe, you can find baby mattresses in various shapes such as rectangular, oval, and round.

Irrespective of your baby crib's shape, you can easily discover the appropriate mattress on the Labebe Boutique website. Another crucial consideration is ensuring the size matches the dimensions of the crib.

Utilizing the convenient search function you can effortlessly locate the correct mattress size for your baby's crib within the baby mattresses category, saving you valuable time.

Children's Mattress Protectors

Plitex mattresses designed for infant comfort feature a zipper closure and are easily washable, offering convenience for parents. However, opting for a mattress cover, a specialized protector is always a dependable choice.


The company manufactures mattress protectors crafted from bamboo. Utilizing natural bamboo fibers these covers offer added antibacterial qualities and a gentle surface that is particularly suitable for the delicate skin of babies.

For those seeking the ideal mattress, it's advisable to invest in a double-sided baby mattress featuring both orthopedic and anatomical surfaces. A Plitex mattress boasts a lifespan of 5 years, providing substantial cost savings.

Explore top-tier baby mattresses at Labebe Boutique, guaranteeing your child's overall well-being. Plus, enjoy delivery of your chosen model within 24 hours, all from the convenience of your home.
