The right mattress for baby

Choosing a baby mattress is important. It should be comfortable, safe, and good for health. But with all the models, how do you choose? Here's a simple guide to help you make the right choice.

Key points for choosing well

A good mattress helps your baby sleep well and supports their growing body. It should be firm (not too soft), well-fitted to the crib size, free from chemicals, and made of natural materials.

Natural materials are often better: they limit allergies and let the skin breathe. A washable cover is also a real plus for keeping the bed clean.

Mattress type	Firmness	Key features
Foam	Medium to firm	Light, sometimes anti-dust mite
Natural latex	Firm	Breathable, comfortable, certified organic
Coconut fiber	Very firm	Natural, good back support
Coco-latex	Firm	Combines support and flexibility
Bamboo viscose stretch	Medium	Ultra soft, very breathable, naturally antibacterial

What makes a mattress safe?

It should be firm enough to prevent the baby from sinking into it. For a foam mattress, a density of 20 to 22 kg/m3 is recommended. For latex, we aim for between 60 and 95 kg/m3.

Which size to choose?

60x120 cm: This is the classic format, perfect for standard cribs. It's suitable from birth to around 2 to 3 years old. This size is ideal if you have a non-convertible crib and limited space in the room.

70x140 cm: This format is larger and designed for convertible beds. It accompanies the child longer, up to 5 or 6 years old. It's a good choice if you want to avoid changing mattresses too early. It also offers more comfort for children who move a lot during sleep.

Convertible mattresses like those from Nateo Concept follow the child's growth. Fewer replacements, more savings.

The summer/winter mattress: practical all year round

Nateo Concept models incorporate:

A summer side composed of 300 g/m² of hypoallergenic polyester wadding and a 12 mm comfort foam, ideal for keeping baby cool.
A winter side enriched with 350 g/m² of hypoallergenic polyester wadding and 250 g/m² of wool, to maintain a gentle and natural warmth.

Result: optimal comfort all year round.

Healthy and natural materials

Here are the most interesting materials for baby's health:

Material	Properties	Advantages
Natural latex	Hypoallergenic, breathable	Good support, regulates temperature
Coconut fiber	Very firm, biodegradable	Good posture, limits pollutants
Organic cotton	Soft, washable	Fewer irritations, easy hygiene
Hemp	Natural, antibacterial	Pure air, good in all seasons

Ticking also plays a key role in sleep quality. Nateo Concept uses several types of ticking depending on the model:

Polyester/polypropylene damask for its resistance
Organic Stretch for its flexibility and soft touch
100% organic cotton for a totally natural contact with the skin.

Each finish is designed to combine comfort, durability, and respect for the sensitive skin of little ones.

Effective anti-dust mite mattresses

Nateo Concept baby mattresses are designed with integrated anti-dust mite properties. Thanks to the use of naturally dust mite-resistant materials such as latex, coconut fiber, or bamboo viscose, they reduce the risk of allergies and contribute to a healthier environment.

This protection is ideal for sensitive babies or those prone to respiratory reactions.

Oeko-Tex and Certipur labels: a double guarantee for baby

The baby mattresses offered by Nateo Concept benefit from both Oeko-Tex and Certipur certifications.

The Oeko-Tex label guarantees the absence of harmful substances in fabrics in direct contact with the skin, an essential criterion for the safety of little ones.
The Certipur certification applies to the foam used in mattresses and ensures that it contains no solvents, heavy metals, or controversial substances. This double certification is a guarantee of transparency, quality, and peace of mind for parents concerned about their child's health.

Made in France: quality and respect for the environment

At Nateo Concept, mattresses are made in France. Less transportation, more quality control, and real expertise. The materials used are sustainable and the packaging is plastic-free.
