Mid Sleeper Beds For Kids
A mid sleeper bed is the perfect solution for your child if they are too big to fit in a bunk, or if you want to maximize the space available in their bedroom. With desks and storage space, these versatile children's beds are ideal for parents.
All people of all ages can benefit from mattresses that are smaller than the frame, which means that children are unable to roll out of the bed during sleep.
Height
A mid-sleeper is a type of bed for children that is a little lower than the high-sleeper. They come with a raised sleeping area, with a space beneath that can be used as storage as well as a desk or a play area. They are an ideal choice for smaller rooms, providing the same amount of sleeping space as a bunk bed, while taking less floor space. They're also great for children who want to share rooms with siblings or a friend, as the bed can easily accommodate two mattresses.
The height of a mid-sleeper varies based on the design. However they're typically between 110cm and 140cm high. This is similar to the height of the standard bed frame. The majority of our mid sleepers require a single mattress, however, some models are suitable for a double or even a triple mattress therefore make sure you check the specifications of the product prior purchasing.
When it concerns the size of a cabin mattress, safety is a top priority, and our range of kids' mid-sleepers are designed with safety in mind. For instance the staircase on many of our models has been designed with safety in mind. It has wide steps that are easier to use and reduce the chance of accidents. In addition the rails that hold the top of the sleeping area are higher than the rails on a traditional bunk bed to prevent your child from slipping out in the night.
We suggest that your child only use the mid sleeper to sleep and not to play with or hang off the ladder. This can increase the risk for falls and injuries. We also advise against using a middle sleeper for children younger than six years old, as they may struggle to climb the stairs safely.
Space
Mid sleepers, also known as cabin beds, are raised enough to let furniture slide beneath them, transforming bedrooms into multi-purpose zones for study as well as play and sleep. These beds are perfect for kids whose rooms don't have the space to accommodate furniture. They're also designed to be sturdy and durable.
Mid-sleeper beds typically have ladders or stairs that children can climb to get to the sleeping space above, rather than requiring them to climb up or crawl into bed, as traditional bunk or high sleeper beds do. This makes them easier for children who are younger to use and encourages independence when it comes to getting ready for bed. It is essential to ensure that the ladder or stairs have guard rails that comply with safety standards and are used in a way that doesn't put you at risk of injury.
One of the biggest advantages of a mid sleeper is that they are usually fitted with ample storage space. Apart from the obvious area under the sleeping platform, many models come with a stair-like drawer or cubby holes that can be used to store books, toys and other trinkets. These features are popular with parents due to their ability to clear the room of clutter and help create a neat space that provides plenty of space for kids to play.
Mid-sleeper beds can also be used as desk space. This is a great option to help children with their assignments and homework as well as an excellent opportunity to teach good study habits and promote the importance of having a dedicated workspace. The majority of models have an adjustable table that can be neatly tucked away in the corner when not in use. This is especially useful in small bedrooms where space is important.
If your child is creative they will be thrilled by the idea of a bed that could transform into a castle for princesses or a cozy living space. This is especially true of the Skye Playhouse mid-sleeper which has been built to look like a house, complete with windows and a roof. The kids can then decorate the exterior using curtains or even lights to add a spark of fun.
Style
A mid sleeper is a great choice for children that are older than six years old. It can provide storage space and sleeping space. Often lower to the ground than a high sleeper and with an elevated ladder or steps to the top, this kind of bed for kids is a real space saver and works well as a play or study space. Some models come with adaptable desk or shelving add ons which makes them ideal for a child to work at during the evening.
Mid sleepers come in a variety of styles to fit your child's tastes and decor. Some of them look like a bunk bed with fun curved sides, and others have an enclosed design with feature doors that will give them a stylish modern and contemporary look. mid sleeper beds are painted pink to match the girl's room, while others sport a shaker-style that suits a boy's bedroom.
Some of our mid-sleepers come with desks that can be pulled out, as well as additional storage to maximize the space they have. Our Trasman Girona Mid Sleeper Cabin Bed is a great illustration of this. It features a full size desk that can be moved in and out of the way when not in use and has an extensive amount of bookshelves, drawers and other compartments, too.

Most of our mid-sleeper beds have a large cavity under them which can be used as a place to store rolls mats or a camp bed for a friend who is visiting for a sleepover. This will be a big hit with any child who enjoys inviting friends over for a night of fun! night!
Many of our mid-sleeper beds include or without sliding. This is a fantastic feature that transforms their bed into a play area and encourages their imagination at time of bed. They can also use it as a place to relax during the daytime to play games or have adventures. If you opt for one that has a slide, make sure it has a sturdy, safe staircase with wide treads to make it easy to climb. It must also be secured in place securely to prevent accidents.

These sleep nests provide children with space to relax, learn and play in their beds while providing parents peace of mind knowing that their children are sleeping in a safe environment.
