How to Choose the Best Types of Children's Mattresses?

Caring for your child begins the moment you discover you're expecting. This journey is filled with new and exciting experiences, especially for first-time parents. Amidst the flurry of questions, it’s crucial to meet your child’s needs promptly.

Choosing and purchasing children's products can be time-consuming. Even when selecting world-class brands, paying attention to details ensures you find the best options.

If you're preparing to decorate your child's room, start with essential pieces of kids furniture: a bed, a wardrobe, and a chest of drawers. These basics will suffice for the initial months, but as your baby grows, you'll need additional items.

Once you've chosen the perfect crib for your little one, don't overlook the importance of a high-quality children's mattress. The right mattress is vital for a newborn’s developing spine.

At Labebe we offer a wide range of baby mattresses. In this blog we'll guide you through the different types of mattresses you should consider before making a purchase.

Types of Baby Mattresses

Orthopedic Mattresses

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

Anatomical Mattresses

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.

All double-sided Plitex mattresses at Labebe feature two different density surfaces, ensuring long-term use and supporting your child’s healthy development.


Mattress Size and Shape

Children's beds come in various shapes and sizes, so it’s important to match the mattress accordingly. Special attention may be needed for oval or round crib, but at Labebe you’ll find mattresses of all shapes, including the classic rectangle.

To save time, use the filter options on the Labebe Boutique website to find the perfect mattress size for your child’s bed.

Materials Used

Whatever you buy for your baby should be of the highest quality, safe, and stylish. It’s our responsibility as adults to ensure their health and comfort. A good mattress should meet safety standards and ideally be certified. Plitex mattresses at Labebe carry the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certificate, having passed numerous safety tests.

Leading manufacturers use materials such as natural latex with coconut fiber, sisal, compacted sintepon, and anatomical latex. These eco-friendly materials are free from harmful substances and completely safe for your child’s health.


In the Labebe online store, you’ll find a variety of children's mattresses with different shapes, sizes, and materials to suit your needs.

For parents who can’t dedicate much time to housework, a specialmattress protector is a must. It ensures complete comfort for your child and protects the mattress from dirt.

Choosing the best mattress for your child is simpler after reading this blog. You can purchase your selected model directly from the Labebe Boutique website without leaving home.
