Company Policies & Recommendations
Composition & Certifications
The Nolah Nurture is meticulously crafted in Arizona, using high-quality, organic materials to provide comfort, support, and durability. Here is a breakdown of its components:
1. Breathable Organic Cotton Cover
The closest layer to your child’s skin of the Nolah Nurture, is made from 100% organic cotton. This material is:
Sustainable: Sourced responsibly, making it eco-friendly.
Breathable: Promotes airflow to keep the surface cool and prevent night sweats (especially useful in active sleepers).
Soft: Gentle against sensitive skin, ensuring comfort for children and teenagers.
2. Temperature-Regulating Wool
Directly beneath the organic cotton cover lies a layer of natural wool. Wool is our favorite bedding material for so many reasons, and serves multiple purposes:
Natural Temperature Regulation: Keeps sleepers warm in the winter and cool in the summer by allowing the body to naturally regulate its own temperature.
Flame Retardant: Acts as a safe and natural alternative to chemical flame retardants.
Moisture-Wicking: Helps keep the mattress dry by absorbing and dissipating moisture.
3. Firmer Foam Layer
This will be the third layer in the Nolah Nurture is you place the firm side up. This is a 1-inch firmer foam layer, which we rated with a firmness of 7/10. This layer is:
Supportive: Designed to promote proper spinal alignment.
Ideal for Older Kids: Provides the stability and support needed for growing bodies.
4. Individually-Wrapped Coils
At the core of the Nolah Nurture is a 6-inch layer of individually-wrapped coils, which offer:
Enhanced Support: Provide targeted support to different areas of the body.
Edge Reinforcement: Expands the usable sleep surface, preventing sagging near the edges, which is great for kids sleeping bear the edge of their beds, preventing them from rolling off, and for parents who sit or lay near the edge while reading books and putting the kids to bed.
Motion Isolation: Reduces movement transfer, ensuring an undisturbed sleep.
5. Softer Foam Layer
On the opposite side of the mattress is a softer foam layer with a firmness rating of 5/10. This layer is the third layer from the top when the mattress is used on its Soft side. it is:
Comfortable: Cushions the body for a plush sleeping experience, providing pressure relief, and especially comfortable for lower-weight children from toddlerhood.
Great for Younger Kids: Provides a gentle and cradling surface for toddlers and young children.
6. Temperature-Regulating Wool
Mirroring the top layer, the bottom layer of wool ensures consistent temperature regulation regardless of which side is in use.
7. Breathable Organic Cotton Cover
The soft and breathable organic cotton cover encapsulates the mattress, ensuring comfort and sustainability on both sides.
Certifications
The Nolah Nurture is an organic kids mattress coming with a range of certifications from external agencies, including:
- GREENGUARD GOLD: Confirms the mattress meets strict emissions standards for indoor air quality.
- CertiPUR-US: Certifies the mattress is free of harmful chemicals, heavy metals, and other dangerous ingredients.
- Fiberglass-free design: while not an actual certification, we wanted to mention that the Nolah Nurture is free of fiberglass, especially important in a kids’ mattress as we know children may jump on their beds, and are more prone to being affected if loose fiberglass was to fly into the air.
Nolah Nurture Mattress Sleep Tests
Everything we felt in one box
| Firmness | Temperature | Maintenance | Sleeping Style | Bed Base |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
As a flippable mattress, each side of the Nolah Nurture provides a different firmness level. The Firm side, ideal of older kids and teenagers, is rated a 7/10, providing a medium-firm sleeping surface. The Soft side is great for toddlers and youngers kids, and rated a 5/10 on the firmness scale, providing a plush sleeping experience. |
Thanks to its breathable cover made of organic cotton, breathable and moisture-wicking wool, and a thick 6-inch layer of coils, which allows for plenty of air flow, the Nolah Nurture sleeps temperature neutral, allowing the body to regulate its own temperature, and is a great mattress for active kiddos who sleep hot or move a lot at night. |
The mattress cover should be spot cleaned only. Simply use a clean cloth, water, and a mild detergent to blot the stain. Never rub, as the stain may spread. We always recommend protecting your mattress investment with a high-quality waterproof mattress protector. We love the Nolah one! |
The Nolah Nurture works for all kids’ sleeping styles. Lower-weight and younger children will likely prefer the Soft side of the mattress, while older kids and teenager should flip the Nolah Nurture to its Firm side, to support their growing bones and joints. |
As with most modern mattresses, the Nolah Nurture mattress can be placed on any bed frame – box springs, divan bases, traditional frames, slats, adjustable bases, and even the floor will do! |
Firmness: Flippable Design for Versatility

The Nolah Nurture is designed with a dual-firmness flippable feature to accommodate the evolving needs of young sleepers:
Firm Side (7/10): Provides a supportive and stable surface ideal for teenagers and heavier children.
Soft Side (5/10): Offers a plush and comfortable feel suitable for toddlers and lighter-weight sleepers.
This flippable design ensures that parents can adjust the firmness level as their child grows, extending the mattress’ usability.
Temperature Regulation
The Nolah Nurture excels in maintaining a comfortable sleeping temperature thanks to its organic materials:
Wool Layers: Act as natural insulators, keeping the mattress cool during warmer months and warm during cooler months.
Organic Cotton Cover: Enhances airflow and moisture-wicking, preventing overheating.
Hybrid Design: The coil layer promotes ventilation, ensuring consistent temperature regulation throughout the night. Air from the coils is able to rise to the upper foams, while warm body air find an escape through the coils and organic mattress cover.
Motion Transfer
While motion transfer should not be a concern for a kids mattress, we have tested it for motion transfer in case you have children sharing a bed, or you, as a parent, fall asleep with your child and need a mattress with low motion transfer to get out quietly once baby is asleep.
The Nolah Nurture offers excellent motion isolation due to its hybrid construction:
Foam Layers: Absorb movement, minimizing disturbances, which is particularly beneficial for children who are light sleepers and may be easily awakened by shifts in the bed.
Individually-Wrapped Coils: Ensure that motion is localized, making it ideal for siblings who share a bed. This feature allows one child to toss and turn without disrupting the other’s sleep, promoting better rest for both, in case of bed sharing.
Maintenance
Caring for the Nolah Nurture is straightforward, ensuring its longevity:
Flipping: Rotate the mattress every 6 months to maintain even wear.
Spot Cleaning: Use a cloth, mild detergent, and warm water to clean any spills or stains by blotting them gently – never rub a stain on a mattress as you’d risk spreading it. Make sure not to over-saturate the stain with water and let the mattress fully air dry prior to covering with sheets again.
Protective Cover: Consider using a waterproof mattress protector to safeguard against accidents and spills.
Airing Out: Allow the mattress to air out periodically to maintain freshness.
Who Is The Nolah Nurture Mattress Good For?
The Nolah Nurture is a versatile mattress suitable for a wide range of sleepers:
Toddlers and Young Children: The softer side provides gentle support for developing bodies.
Teenagers: The firmer side offers the stability and spinal support needed during growth spurts.
Eco-Conscious Families: Made with organic materials, it’s a great choice for families prioritizing sustainability.
Sensitive Sleepers: Its organic, hypoallergenic materials are ideal for those with allergies or sensitivities.
