Buying your child's first mattress may be considered a rite of passage. Just as cribs are designed for infants, children have special needs for mattresses that are different from adults. So it's important to choose the right mattress.
As soon as you venture into the marketplace, however, you quickly find yourself overwhelmed with options -- this feature versus that feature, this price over that price. To ease your stress, here are five tips to help you choose the mattress that will best support your child in getting a good night's sleep.
Natural Organic Mattress
1. Know what materials to avoid: There is growing widespread concern regarding the effects of potentially harmful chemicals. Your child may spend 10 to 12 hours a day sleeping on that mattress for many years, so avoid heavily-treated mattresses containing polyurethane foam, eco-foam (which is mostly polyurethane foam), vinyl (PVC), phthalates, chemical fire retardants or barriers and industrial chemicals. Many chemicals can "off-gas" from the mattress and be inhaled by your child.
2. Know what materials to look for: Mattresses made with organic and non-toxic materials are best. A good choice is a mattress made with organic cotton fabrics and filling. Remember that not all organic mattresses are alike. For example, "natural latex" or "coir" may actually be allergenic for your child. Look for a mattress that has earned the recommendation or certification of a reputable organization (for example, GREENGUARD or "Healthy Child Healthy World").
3. Look for non-toxic waterproofing and dust mite protection: Avoid vinyl, nylon, polyurethane. Ask for FDA food-grade polyethylene, the safest way to waterproof and dust mite proof a mattress.
4. Look for a firmer mattress: Children's bones and spines are still growing, and, as such, pediatricians recommend firmer mattresses to encourage proper bone growth.
5. High prices don't necessarily mean better quality: While it's true you may pay more for a good quality child's mattress, a higher price doesn't always mean a better mattress. Make sure you do your research and focus on the materials used to make the mattress.
