What age can a child have a single bed?

There’s no ‘ideal’ age when your child makes the transition to a regular single bed but it usually happens naturally between the ages of 2 and 3. If your child is climbing out of their cot or needs to use the toilet during the night, then it may be time to get a single bed.

How long can a child use a single bed?

Your child can sleep in a single bed from the age they transition from sleeping in a cot until they’re a teenager. There’s a trend towards double beds for children but budget and room size generally means that people opt for a toddler bed and then an adult size single for a growing child.

When to move child from toddler bed to single bed?

Moving your child from a toddler bed to a regular single bed is a big step. Most toddler beds use a standard crib mattress and are intended for use by children up the age of five. Beyond that age, your child may need more space or feel they’re ready for a more grown-up bed.

Children's Lowsleeper Beds

We can't find products matching the selection.

A lowsleeper bed is a single bed on a low frame which is accessed by a simple step, so young children can safely and easily get into bed by themselves. This helps to both support children's independence and promotes a positive bedtime routine. Lowsleeper beds are a perfect transition option for children moving on from toddler beds and are generally suitable for children aged 4 and up.

If you're looking for a space where your child can feel snug and safe, a lowsleeper cabin bed features raised ends and sides to give a sense of comfort and security, which is perfect for younger children but also a brilliant option for teenagers too. A lowsleeper cabin bed is also a great space saver, as they include additional storage which is especially handy for smaller rooms. Many lowsleeper beds feature desk space, drawers, shelves, or cupboards to store boxes and trays, allowing you to keep clothes, toys, and books tidy, maximising your child's space to play.

Each lowsleeper bed on our site is manufactured from quality materials for practical use. Our lowsleeper beds can also be complimented with comfortable mattresses and many come with complementary ranges of bedroom furniture.
