I am looking for a non-toxic mattress for my daughter's new non-toxic big-girl bed from a Maine company.

I realize that it's going to cost some money, but I am hoping it'll last a long time, and that it's worth the investment.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for your help!

You can get something with Certipur foam which will be the least expensive or go so far as a fully organic mattress. There are some good choices... we carry about 20 toxic free options in our Store in NC and can ship to you .

I splurged on a non-toxic, organic latex mattress for my 5yo. It was around $700, but he's super comfortable and I'm not worried about allergies or off-gassing anymore, so it's worth the investment. I purchased it through Organic Grace and it's made by Pure Rest, which makes their latex in-house.

I also looked at more reasonably priced organic cotton mattresses, but choose not to go with cotton due to dust mite allergies. Those sites were:

The two brands might be lower-priced on Amazon - I've seen some sold on there.

A canadian company called Essentia makes a baby mattress called the "La La". It's all natural, organic, and %100 non-toxic. It's also AMAZINGLY comfortable, made of all natural memory foam and latex. I looked into it, and this seems to be the only "real" natural memory foam on the market. Hope this helps.

I would not argue with the Essentia product being comfortable, but there is a significant amount of controversy surround all of their natural yet alone organic credentials.
