Reviews
NYC Mom
"I really like the low profile of this mattress compared to the many pillowy top ones both for my kids and for looks in a kids bedroom. Bed is comfortable and simple (not too hard or soft) supporting good sleep habits."
Bought more than once
"I love this mattress and how it grows with them since either side is based on age. We have 2 of them now. Very comfortable and our kids sleep great."
College Dorm Mattress
"It felt a bit too much like a college dorm mattress for my preferences. I almost feel like it passes because most parents aren't spending much time on it. We co-sleep, so we got a good sense of it and did not care for this mattress."
Sleeps great, my kid is
"Sleeps great, my kid is sleeping though the night now. Set up was easy and quick and the cardboard box to color on was such a plus"
Great bed, easy set up
"Great bed, easy set up and comfortable!"
So comfortable for kids and parents!
"This bed is amazing! It’s so comfortable that I’m finally able to lay comfortably in bed with my daughter to help her fall asleep at night. Oh, and she likes it too!"
Comfortable but sides sag too much
"Overall the bed is comfy when we lay down on it and my 3yo loves it, but the sides are softer/sag more than I would like. We've had it for a little over 2 months now and I noticed that the side her head is at was already depressed, so I had to rotate the mattress already."
Best Kid's mattress
"This is the best mattress!! I have the kids one for my youngest son and have slept here myself. It's so comfortable! I highly recommend."
No issues so far! It
"No issues so far! It was nice not having a bunch of noxious VOCs air out when we took it out of the box. I’ve slept on it with my Kiddo on an especially inconsolable night and didn’t wake up in pain :)"

Q&A
"We feel extra confident recommending this mattress because it has earned praise from several sleep experts."
"Helix is one of the world’s best mattress brands, so we aren't surprised to see such a high quality build and the use of premium, non-toxic materials here."
"Even better news for parents: Helix now makes a kids’ mattress that’s specially designed for their needs."
"A mattress may not be exciting to a kid, but they will thank you when they sleep like a baby (no pun intended). And, parents will love it too."
"Helix has a new kids mattress and you're going to want to check it out! It has all sorts of thoughtful features that help facilitate a good night’s sleep."
"New & Notable: The Helix Kids Mattress sports a dual-sided design so your kid can switch it up as they grow and their preferences change."
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.
"This mattress is light years ahead in design and quality. Helix thought of everything a parent 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."
Meredith Broderick, MD
Board Certified in Neurology, Sleep Medicine, and Behavioral Sleep Medicine; Founder, Sound Sleep Guru
"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."
Alanna McGinn
Certified Family Sleep Coach; Leading Family Sleep Expert and Founder of Good Night Sleep Site
"I highly recommend the Helix Kids Mattress to anyone who is looking to upgrade their child's sleep. From its flippable hybrid design which provides the proper support for my child's growing body, the safe certification guaranteeing that no harsh chemicals or toxins were used, to the comfort of the polyfoam and coils, my child instantly fell in love (and asleep) on it."
Sari Broda
Certified Child Sleep and Behavior Consultant; Sleep Expert In Chief & Founder of The Chil Pil
"As a sleep physician and parent, I am ecstatic there is finally a high quality kids' mattress and I have been thrilled with the Helix Kids Mattress! Studies show that improving the sleep environment (including the mattress) can boost sleep quality. A mattress should be designed with the weight and size of the sleeper in mind, making adult mattresses less than ideal for children."
Meredith Broderick, MD
Board Certified in Neurology, Sleep Medicine, and Behavioral Sleep Medicine; Founder, Sound Sleep Guru
"With its flippable softer and firmer design, The Helix Kids Mattress provides the proper support for all ages of development while also giving kids the comfort and feel they need for a great night of sleep. And its soft, absorbent TENCEL™ cover is naturally hypoallergenic and perfect for my hot sleeper son who also has sensitive skin."
Alanna McGinn
Certified Family Sleep Coach; Leading Family Sleep Expert and Founder of Good Night Sleep Site
"As a child sleep consultant, I always say we have to set up our children for success by optimizing their sleep environment and any factors that we can control. The most important one is a comfortable, thoughtfully-made, and safe mattress. As I transitioned my 3 year old from a crib to a big kid bed, I knew choosing the right mattress would be a game-changer in making this process easier for everyone. The Helix Kids Mattress was the perfect fit!"

Kids Mattress Benefits
Helix Kids: ’s Favorite Mattress
Mattress Match: Helix Kids
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
The firmer side is great for younger kids (suggested for 3-7 year olds) when they need additional support to aid proper development of their growing bodies.
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 8-12) that still provides excellent support.
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.
Cover
Antimicrobial, Water-Repellent Design
Made with soft, hypoallergenic, and breathable TENCEL™ and treated with a water-repellent finish and a hygienic microbe shield.
Fire Retardant
Protection From Flammability
This vital layer protects against potential flammability and keeps kids safe while they sleep.
Firmer Support Layer (Ages 3-7)
High Grade Polyfoam
This layer of sturdy, dense foam provides spinal support to aid the proper development of younger kids’ growing bodies.
Body Shape Coils
Wrapped Coils
Hundreds of individual 6” coils cradle your kid’s body and limit motion transfer. Two reinforced sides provide edge support to keep your kid safely in bed.
Softer Comfort Layer (Ages 8-12)
Gel Memory Foam
Plush and comforting, this layer has a soft, uniquely pressure relieving and cushioned feel.
Fire Retardant
Protection From Flammability
Both sides of this mattress, as well as the side panels, are safeguarded from flammability.
Cover
Hypoallergenic, Breathable Design
The entire Helix Kids Mattress is enveloped in a cool to the touch, hypoallergenic cover and is also treated with a non-toxic water-repellent and microbe shield.
Kids Mattress Features
This flippable mattress was designed with the safety and comfort of a growing kid in mind.
Hypoallergenic, Breathable Cover
The naturally hypoallergenic, soft, and breathable TENCEL™ mattress cover provides high levels of airflow. No more sweaty, itchy nights.
Water-Repellent Finish
The Helix Kids Mattress features RUCO®-DRY BIO NPE, an eco-friendly and plant-based durable water-repellent finish that protects the mattress from stains and water damage without impacting the fabric’s breathability and soft touch.
Odor-Fighting Antimicrobial Tech
This mattress uses AEGIS® Microbe Shield, a permanent fiber treatment on the mattress cover that combats odor-causing bacteria, but is safe for you, your kid, and the environment.

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!
