Kids Mattress Benefits
Flippable Benefits Icon

2-Sided Design for Growing Kids

8" hybrid mattress with 6" innersprings and custom foam layers to provide the right safety, comfort, support, and durability for growing kids with changing needs and preferences.

Firmer Side Benefits Icon

Firmer Side

The firmer side is great for younger kids (suggested for 2-7 year olds) when they need additional support to aid proper development of their growing bodies.

Softer Side Benefits Icon

Softer Side

As kids get older, they tend to favor mattresses with more of a comforting feel, which is why we created a softer side for older kids (suggested for 8 & up) that still provides excellent support.

Sleep Safely Benefits Icon

Sleep Safely

To ensure your kid won’t be exposed to dangerous chemicals, this mattress was tested for lead and phthalate and all foams are CertiPUR-US® certified, which guarantees they were made without harmful chemicals. Made without fiberglass.

EXPERT TESTED & RECOMMENDED

Trusting us to help your kids get a great night's sleep is a big deal, so we turned to experts and professional caregivers to test our mattresses. That's right, in addition to kids and parents trying out the Helix Kids Mattress, we've also turned to medical doctors, pediatric sleep specialists, and child & family sleep consultants to test this mattress.

"When I recommend mattresses to clients and even when researching them for my own children I want a mattress that will grow with the child and is hypoallergenic. Longevity and durability are also important, as is choosing the right mattress for your child's developing body. Selecting a new mattress can be confusing but Helix has made it easy for families."

"This mattress is light years ahead in design and quality. Helix thought of everything a patient and a sleep physician could want in a mattress including a two sided design to last from age 3 until the child is 12, a cool to the touch hypoallergenic TENCEL™ cover, and CertiPUR-US certified foams."

Kid Tested & Kid Approved

Who knows best? Moms and dads, of course! But because we designed this bed for kids, we knew we had to also ask them what they thought about the Helix Kids Mattress. So in addition to our mattresses getting tested by medical doctors, pediatric sleep specialists, and child & family sleep consultants, we also got real kids and real families to try out our mattresses too!

Unboxing Your Helix Kids Mattress
Helix Kids unboxing illustrations

UNPACK
Your Helix Kids Mattress will be delivered in a sturdy box and wrapped in two layers of airtight plastic. 

To get started, bring your boxed Helix Kids Mattress into the bedroom and open one end of the box. Lay the box on its side and remove the rolled up mattress, placing it directly on your child's sleep surface. Set aside the empty box to be recycled later. 
Helix Kids unboxing illustrations

UNCOVER
To remove the outer layer of airtight plastic, pull on the tab and begin removing the entire outer layer. You are welcome to carefully use scissors to cut away the outer layer of plastic if necessary. Your mattress may begin to unroll or unfold on your child's sleep surface. 

Once the outer layer of plastic has been fully removed, please set it aside. It can be recycled with soft plastics if that service is available in your area.
Helix Kids unboxing illustrations

UNFOLD & UNWRAP
With the outer layer of plastic removed, fully unfold your child's mattress so it sits flat on your child's sleep surface, with only one layer of airtight plastic remaining. 

Carefully cut the inner layer of recyclable plastic (avoid cutting the mattress) and remove it. As you cut into the inner layer of plastic, the mattress will begin to rapidly expand.
Helix Kids unboxing illustrations

EXPAND, ARRANGE, & ENJOY
Flip the mattress so the age range that appears right side up (on top) is appropriate. 

Please give the mattress 1-2 hours to expand. Once fully expanded, your Helix Kids Mattress will measure approximately 8 inches tall. Then it's time to kick back and relax. Sweet dreams!

Limited Lifetime Warranty


We’ve designed the Helix Kids Mattress with durable steel coils that provide a bit more support than you might find in an innerspring mattress or similar type of mattress. Our high quality mattress design comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty, ensuring you and your child will love it for years and years.
