Standard bed frames do not offer the same storage options as mid sleepers or cabin beds. Consider options such as pull out desks that can be pushed neatly into furniture when not in use, and plenty of shelves to accommodate their ever-growing collection of games and toys.
You can also consider bunk beds for kids with shelves that are equipped with hooks - perfect for drinking a glass of water or reading.
Sleeping Area
The platform that sleeps on for a mid loft bed-sleeper is elevated from the ground, and usually includes sides to create an environment that is secure and safe that encourages a healthy sleep posture and spinal alignment. This helps children sleep better, longer and more comfortably. It also improves their physical and mental health.
A mid sleeper small single is a great option for children who are transitioning from crib to bed as it provides a safe and comfortable sleeping space while introducing the elements of a grown-up bed that encourages independence. The elevated platform and enclosed space will also promote the relaxation and a tranquil evening routine.
Mid sleeper cabins are designed as multi-purpose spaces for your child to play, study and rest. The raised sleeping surface is great to place furniture such as desks or a sofa on top and the sturdy construction means you don't have to worry about it falling through. This makes a mid sleeper an ideal choice for children who are beginning to show an interest in academic and homework pursuits.
Mid-sleepers for kids can have built-in storage and give your child more room to spread out and relax. These beds usually include a chest of drawers, pullout desk or extensive shelving that can hold all kinds of things, including books and toys. Certain models, such as the Julian Bowen Skye Playhouse Mid Sleeper, are made to resemble houses or castles of knights that kids can personalize with windows and curtains to add a playful touch.
The majority of mid-sleepers for kids will have an stairway or ladder that helps them reach the sleeping platform above. These are designed to be strong and safe, with guardrails as well as wide treads to make the climb easier for younger children. Always supervise your child while they use the ladder or stairs to ensure they're following safety guidelines and are not trying to climb too quickly. You can also find single mid sleepers that don't require a ladder or stairs at all for a sleeker and more compact look.
Mattress
There's a lot to like about a mid sleeper small single. The striking designs and exciting features of these beds captivate the imagination of children and let them relax in a dreamlike state. The majority of these beds come with built-in storage under the bed, which is a great option for those who struggle to find space to store a wardrobe or drawers. Open cupboards that are ready for totes or neat and tidy drawers that have smooth, non-wobble operation, the extra space beneath the mattress could be perfect for adaptable low-level storage that can grow with your child.
The kind of mattress you pick will be based on the sleeping position of your sleeper. A mattress with a soft feel is ideal for side or front sleepers, whereas a more firm mattress is better for back and stomach sleepers. There are also mattresses that have added advantages like anti-dustmite treatment and cooling features to promote healthy sleep. Some of these mattresses can accommodate pull out desks that provide a perfect study space. These can be a lifesaver when you're trying to clean up the carpet in your child's bedroom and still allow them to do their homework.
The majority of mattresses we offer for cabin beds that are mid cabin bed with storage-sleeper size are vacuum packed to make delivery easier. This reduces their size by a small amount, making it easier to move them around your home after arriving. This is an excellent option for those who suffer from joint or back issues and are concerned about moving a large bed.
With the help of conversion kits, some of our beds for mid-sleepers can be converted into a daybed and a bunkbed. This lets them expand with your child. This is ideal for families who might need to use an entire bedroom for a lengthy period of time. The Kidsaw Urban midsleeper cabin 1 for instance is a classic white midi bed and birch bed that converts into an loft-style bed or a single bed with ladder. Additionally the Julian Bown Skye Playhouse Midsleeper is a style dream built to look like an old castle or a house and is able to be given a personal touch with curtains and twinkly lights as well as removable stickers.
Under-bed Storage
One of the main benefits of mid sleeper cabin beds is that they provide numerous storage options. In contrast to high sleeper and bunk beds, which are elevated to a high level, they typically only sit just a few centimetres from the floor - leaving plenty of room underneath to install furniture and other practical features. The most obvious under-bed storage solution is the drawers. They can span the entire length of the bed, and be placed at either end, or be used as tables to sit on at night. Find drawers that can be incorporated seamlessly into a divan base, to create a neat and seamless finish.
Another option for storage under the bed is woven baskets and drawers. These are made of natural materials. Woven fibers circulate air and eliminate dampness and musty odours. This keeps stored items fresh and secure. A storage bag that is vacuum-packed is perfect for items that need to be stored for a longer period of time. It will eliminate all air and allow you to squeeze into more.
You could also opt for a stylish, purpose-designed small single cabin bed with built-in cabinets and drawers. These will not only make use of the space under your bed to the max, they'll also keep things neat and tidy. Drawer systems that have smooth, no-wobble runners are essential, particularly if you want to prevent them from jamming. If you opt for a wooden model, make sure you choose an attractive painted finish that is in sync with the rest of your interior decor.
It's also worth looking for mid sleeper cabin beds with pull-out desks if study is your top priority. They'll not only provide your children a comfortable place to do homework or hang out with friends, but they'll help you save some space in their bedroom, too. Select options that include chairs to make the most of this feature.
Design
A single, mid-sleeper is great for children who love to climb, explore and discover. These mid-sleepers are often made of solid hardwoods, and come with ladders that meet strict safety standards. Look for designs that include guard rails on all sides of the upper mattress or bunk beds to avoid the risk of entrapment. Some beds will also include an extra net to protect the mattress to provide peace of mind.
Most children's cabin beds are aimed at six year older or more and are adorned with bright colors that appeal to their naiveté. Find a style with shelving and a pull-out desk that give you more space for studying or playing.
A lot of the designs we have in our collection are available with a selection of accessories, such as tents tunnels and pocket organisers that help to keep their bedroom tidy and organized. For example the Pino wooden mid sleeper beds-sleeper with curtain is available in three frame colours and 9 different bed curtains ranging from simple neutrals to themed styles like unicorns and princesses.
Similar to that, a few of our loft or single cabin beds can be transformed into a bunk or day bed with the help of an optional conversion kit (sold separately). This allows your child to adapt the space according to their preferences. If you are thinking of a single convertible cabin bed, choose a sturdy construction that can support the weight of an adult up to 80kg.
If you're introducing an individual mid-sleeper small single in a shared space think about an uncluttered style that can be adapted to accommodate different tastes. Paint the walls with a fresh coat of grey or duck egg blue to create a background that is easily changed with furniture and bedding in shades of purple, pink or red, or any other hue your child is fond of.
Think about a bed that has an integrated wardrobe if introducing one to your child's bedroom. This will save floor space and allows your child to keep their clothing neatly organized. Our Julian Bowen Stella and Cookie mid sleeper models come with side drawers that have plenty of storage space for books, toys and bits and bobs.
