3 Tips for Choosing a Crib Mattress

Choosing a crib mattress can be a big decision–especially for any first-time parents. You want to ensure you are selecting a product that is both comfortable and durable, soft yet stain resistant, and most importantly–with your child’s safety at the forefront of its design. To aid you in finding your little one’s perfect fit, we’ve brainstormed a few of our best tips and tricks for selecting the best crib mattress for your tiny sleeper. 


  • Clean = Cozy
  • Here at Moonlight, we understand that mattresses must be durable. Accidents are bound to happen, but that doesn’t mean the cleanup process should be difficult. Look for a mattress that can be easily cleaned with minimal effort. Take for example the EZ Dreamer Crib Mattress. This classic mattress is built to survive spills and a multitude of other accidents. Simply wipe it down with a clean and damp sponge! For extra tough messes, you can add a bit of mild soap to clean the area. Your mattress will appear good-as-new for years to come.


  • Safe and Sound
  • Along with being easy to clean, it is important that your mattress is made with high quality materials that are safe for your child. Luckily, those standards are always met here at Moonlight Baby. We boast that our products are UL GREENGUARD® GOLD Certified and always exceed expectations when it comes to the safety of your little one. Each product is certified for indoor air pollutants, off-gassing and other potentially hazardous processes or materials. We believe that while your baby should rest easy, that you should, too. With so much on your mind as a parent–especially a new parent–your child’s bed shouldn’t be one of them. When you purchase an eco-friendly Moonlight product, sustainability is always a guarantee. 


  • Grow Baby Grow
  • If we know one thing for sure–it is that babies grow fast! It seems that one day you’re bringing them home and snuggling them in their nursery, and the next they are up and moving around the house. A transitional product that can support them in infancy and into their toddling phase is crucial. The Little Dreamer Crib Mattress has been raved about by parents everywhere since 2017. Winning multiple awards, including the 2024 Mom’s Choice Award-Gold, this mattress is not only solid, but also resilient. When your child begins to toddle, simply flip the mattress using the arrows located on the tag as a guide. It truly is that easy!


    No matter which Moonlight mattress you select, you can rest in the fact that you are getting top-quality comfort, sustainable materials and countless nights of tranquil sleep for your baby. After all, the better the baby sleeps, the better you are able to sleep.
