Our kids bed and mattress packages pair a child-friendly bed frame with a properly matched mattress at one bundled price, starting from $200. Every package ships fast from our Australian warehouses, so the bed and mattress arrive together and the room is ready the same day you build it.
What size bed does your child need?
Most children move from a cot to a single bed (92 x 188 cm) somewhere between two and three years old. A king single (107 x 203 cm) costs a little more upfront but adds 15cm of width and length, which usually carries a child through to their teens without another upgrade. If the bedroom fits a king single, it's the better long-term buy — you skip the mid-childhood bed replacement entirely.
What's included in a kids bed and mattress package?
Each package includes the bed frame and a mattress sized to fit it exactly — no guessing whether a mattress bought separately will sit properly on the slats. Our kids range covers house-frame beds, low-line frames for younger children, trundle beds for sleepovers and bunk beds for shared rooms, each bundled with a mattress suited to the frame's base type.
Which mattress firmness suits a child?
Medium-firm is the usual choice for children. Kids are lighter than adults, so a mattress that feels firm to you gives them the flatter, supportive surface growing bodies generally do better on. Soft, deep-contour mattresses are designed around adult weight and aren't the right pick for young kids. For children under two, always follow current safe-sleep guidance — firm, flat and snug-fitting in a cot rather than an adult-style mattress.
Quick checklist before you buy
-
Bed height — low-line frames make it easier for younger kids to climb in and out safely
-
Weight rating — check it covers your child plus a parent sitting on the bed at story time
-
Slat spacing — gaps under 7cm stop the mattress sagging and keep small limbs out of trouble
-
Guard rails — worth having for the first year after moving out of a cot
-
Mattress cover — a removable, washable cover earns its keep quickly with kids
