Choosing a quality mattress for your cot is vital to ensure that your child has the best sleep possible.

There are plenty of things to think about when you are preparing for the arrival of your new infant. There are numerous decisions and options to make from the nursery to the food and clothing schedules. The cot mattress is among the most important.
Cot mattresses must be firm enough to support the tiny infants and toddlers. They must also be responsive to movement, pressure, and turning. Spring mattresses and foam mattresses that are cheap tend to deform easily and are less responsive than a latex-coated Coir or pocket spring mattress. They will last longer and are better for your baby's spine.
