Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress Construction Details
Designed for a growing child’s sleep needs, the Nolah Nurture Mattress comes with two firmness levels in one mattress. Read on to learn how the eight layers are constructed.
Breathable Organic Cotton Cover (Firmer Side)
First, the organic cotton cover creates a comfy, breathable surface. It helps keep your child cool and dry throughout the night as it wicks moisture and allows air flow. The cotton fabric is Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certified.
Flame Retardant Organic Wool
Organic wool creates a natural flame-retardant barrier without the use of fiberglass or harmful chemicals. The soft, GOTS-certified wool also helps regulate temperature, thanks to its moisture-wicking properties.
Firmer Comfort Layer
On the firmer side of the Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress, a dense layer of foam provides gentle contouring. This comfort foam has more bounce than the foam on the softer side of the mattress. According to the Nolah website, this responsive layer helps with spinal alignment and is often a good support for younger children.
Individually Wrapped Steel Coils
A 6” core of individually wrapped steel coils provide compression support and additional aid for spine alignment. The coils also add durability and edge support for a longer mattress lifespan.
Softer Comfort Layer
The softer comfort later offers more cushioning and contouring than the firmer side. Gel memory foam provides soothing pressure relief for the spine and joints. The company website notes that the softer side is often a good choice for older kids or for a child who prefers a plush sleep surface.
Flame Retardant Organic Wool
Organic, GOTS-certified wool provides another chemical-free flame retardant for the softer side. The soft wool layer wicks moisture, promotes cooling air circulation and enhances the cushioning of the comfort layer.
Breathable Organic Cotton Cover (Softer Side)
On the softer side, the organic cotton cover extends over the side panels of the mattress. Air flows through the GOTS-certified fabric, carrying body heat away from the surface. The side panels also come with handles to make flipping the mattress easier.
Choice of Mattress Sizes
When shopping for the best mattress for kids, it’s important to find a mattress size that fits your growing child. At 8” thick, the Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress is available in the following three sizes:
- Twin: 38” x 74”
- Twin XL: 38” x 80”
- Full: 53” x 75”
Two Firmness Levels
With two firmness levels, the flippable Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress provides a comfortable sleep surface for a child’s changing preferences. On a firmness scale of 1 to 10 with 10 the firmest, the medium-firm side has a rating of 6-7. Flip the mattress and you have a medium-soft feel with a 4-5 rating.
Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress Review: Advantages and Any Limitations
We’ve looked at the construction of the Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress. After our research and review, we share what we believe are its advantages as well as any limitations.
Flippable with Choice of Firmness Levels
Kids have evolving sleep preferences as they grow and develop. Fortunately, the Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress has a flippable design with two firmness levels. One side has a medium-firm feel that supports the spine and may be a good option for a developing younger child. The other side offers medium-soft comfort that may be ideal for an older child.
We think you’ll like the flexibility of this design. The best firmness level ultimately depends on personal preferences. If one side just is working for your child, you can flip the mattress to the other side. It even comes with side handles to make it eas to flip.
Contouring Pressure Relief
The comfort layers on both sides offer contouring and pressure relief. The medium-soft side provides softer contouring that cradles your child’s spine, hips and shoulders. The pressure relief of the softer comfort layer is especially beneficial for kids who sleep on their side.
Support for Developing Bodies
Individually wrapped coils offer deep support for both firmness levels of the mattress. On the firmer side, the coil core and the firmer comfort layer provide support with just enough cushioning to help keep the spine properly aligned. The medium-firm feel is a good choice for side and back sleepers.
Stays Cool and Comfortable
Thanks to breathable, moisture-wicking materials, your child can sleep cool and dry. The organic cotton cover and organic wool flame retardant draw away moisture and let air flow, keeping the mattress cool and comfortable. Air also circulates through the coil core, adding to the temperature regulation.

Safety Features and Certifications
When it comes to your child’s safety, it helps to know that a mattress meets strict certification standards. The Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress is GREENGUARD Gold and CertiPUR-US certified. That means that the mattress meets strict standards for low volatile organic compound (VOC) and that the foams are free of harmful chemicals such as ozone depleters, formaldehyde, and toxic heavy metals.
Also, the organic wool fire retardant does not contain fiberglass or chemical fire retardants. You can have peace of mind when your child sleeps on the Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress.
Shipped in a Box
Life with kids can be hectic. We think you’ll appreciate having your Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress shipped to your home in a box. Before shipping, the mattress is compressed and rolled to fit in the box. When you unbox the mattress, it can take a few hours to fully expand and for the “new mattress smell” to air out.
If you prefer, Nolah offers a White Glove Delivery option. For an extra charge at checkout, you can choose setup and removal, removal only or setup only.
120-Night Sleep Trial
It takes time to get used to a new mattress. Fortunately, the Nolah Nurture Kids Mattress comes with a 120-night sleep trial. That give you and your child four months to decide if the mattress is a good fit.
Nolah requires a 30-day break-in period starting on the delivery date. After that, you can return the mattress for a refund during the 120-night trial period. You will, however, have to pay a return fee. If possible, the returned mattress is recycled or donated to a local charity.
Lifetime Warranty
Nolah stands by their product with a Limited Lifetime Warranty. Depending on the number of years after purchase, Nolah may repair or replace a defective mattress and may charge a prorated fee based on their warranty policy, which details responsibilities, coverage, and exclusions. As it can change at any time, so be sure to check the latest warranty terms before you buy.
