Age group and supervision
Infant rooms usually need stackable or evacuation-ready cots with clear sight lines. Toddler and preschool rooms more often use sleep stretchers or sleep mats that pack away after rest time.

How to choose cots and rest furniture for your centre
Start with age mix, whether the room must convert after sleep, and how laundry and wipe-down actually run on a busy day. Those three decisions usually narrow the range faster than browsing every model.
Room size and stackability
If the same space becomes a play area after sleep, prioritise stackable cots, folding stretchers, and mats with carts. Dedicated sleep rooms can keep a calmer fixed layout while still planning mattress and bedding spares.
Hygiene and laundry flow
Plan wipeable mattresses, spare fitted sheets, and labelled bedding sets so laundry turns around without borrowing from other rooms. Ask us for bulk packs sized to your cot and stretcher lines.
Representative cots, rest beds and sleep mats
Below is a curated mix of what centres ask for most often — not an exhaustive catalogue. When you enquire, tell us room ages, sleep versus play conversion needs, evacuation requirements, and bedding volumes; we refine quantities and configurations with you.
Nursery changing areas sit under changing tables. Cubbies and lockable storage for sleep rooms sit with storage and shelving. Full openings and staged fit-outs are covered on new centres.

Frequently asked questions
Which options suit infants, toddlers, and preschool rooms?
Infants typically need stackable childcare cots — and many centres also plan evacuation cots for drills and emergencies. Toddlers often move to sleep stretchers or low timber rest beds. Preschool groups commonly use sleep mats that store neatly after rest. Share each room age range and we will suggest a practical mix.
What are evacuation cots used for?
Evacuation cots are mobile cots designed so infant rooms can move sleeping tamariki quickly during drills or emergencies while keeping a secure sleep surface. We help you match castors, turning circle, and mattress fit to your corridors, exits, and emergency plan — exact requirements stay with your centre policies.
Do you offer space-saving solutions for sleep rooms that also need play space?
Yes. Stackable childcare cots, sleep stretchers, and folding sleep mats are designed for rooms that convert after sleep. Sleep mat storage and carts keep mats aired and organised between sessions.
Can we match cots and sleep mats with nursery storage and changing areas?
Yes. Many centres plan sleep furniture alongside changing tables and storage and shelving so finishes and circulation feel consistent. Sleep mat carts cover rest-time storage; full room shelving and lockable cabinets sit under Storage & Shelving.
Do your cots, rest beds, and sleep mats meet NZ childcare expectations?
We select lines for licensed early childhood environments and align recommendations to AS/NZS safety expectations appropriate to the product category. Exact model details, mattress sizing, and any certification documents are confirmed in your written quote — centres remain responsible for meeting their own licensing and safe-sleep policies.
Do you supply cots and sleep mats across New Zealand?
Yes. We supply and deliver nationwide across Aotearoa and coordinate logistics around your site readiness, renovations, or staged room openings.
Do you help with full nursery or new-centre sleep-room fitouts?
Yes. For a single sleep room or a whole new centre, share floor plans, age mixes, and timelines. We can package cots, stretchers, mats, mattresses, bedding, and related nursery furniture, or point you to a broader new-centre fit-out conversation. Height and sizing context also sits in our childcare furniture size guide.
