Custom Cot Mattresses - From Us to You in Four Simple Steps

Custom-made cot mattresses continue to increase in popularity as more and more parents and guardians realise the essential nature of providing the very best sleeping place for their precious children. If you’re one of the many people who think that creating a bespoke baby mattress is probably a cumbersome, expensive process then think again! Baby Mattresses Online present our simple, effective 4-step plan for your convenience.

• Step 1 - Cot or not? Not only used in traditional cots, baby mattresses can be supplied to fit a number of other potential places such as prams, cribs, carrycots, Moses baskets, travel cots, junior/small beds and cot beds. Tell us exactly what your baby’s sleeping place is like and be sure to include any unusual details.

• Step 2 - State the Shape. Larger-sized mattresses, such as those used in cots, often have a square-corner shape as standard though there is a significant proportion that favour a bow-ended or oval design. Use our handy visual guide to check out our standard shapes. Mattresses of an unusual shape can easily be produced by Baby Mattresses Online in a unique and ultra-convenient way - simply make and send to us a template* of wrapping paper or newspaper and we will do the rest! *Please mark templates with your name, address and telephone number.

• Step 3 - Made to Measure. If you cannot locate your chosen mattress size on the Baby Mattresses Online website then it’s time to get the tape measure out - let us know the required length, width and height of the full inside of your chosen cot or other sleeping-place. Mattresses intended for prams, cribs and Moses baskets generally have a standard 4cm depth while cot mattresses are more than double this at around 10cm. Type your bespoke measurements into the box marked ‘Special Instructions’ and please double-check before placing your order.

• Step 4 - Inner and Outer. Baby Mattresses Online offer an extremely wide choice of mattress fillings and covers to allow you to find the perfect combination for your baby. We know it all looks a bit daunting, particularly to first-time parents, but rest assured that none of the options are ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ and it’s all about what you and your baby feel comfortable with - our trained advisors are always on hand to offer clear, relevant and authoritative advice on selecting from the available options.
