Toddler Bed with Rails for Safe, Confident Sleep

Featuring a slatted design and modular construction, it delivers long-term flexibility with a clean, modern look. Named after the nightingale songbird, it evokes a sense of comfort, calm, and peaceful nighttime routines.

  • Meet physical and emotional needs: Rails help create a more contained sleep space for younger children. As your child grows, rails can be removed to create an open kids' bed frame.
  • Convertible kids bed frame that grows with your child: Add legs, remove rails, and adapt the setup over time without replacing the entire bed.
  • Solid wood bed frame: Built for everyday life, made from durable solid wood and holding 500-650 pounds, this bed can meet the needs of children or adults.

Care & Safe Use

Every child is different. We encourage you to observe and adapt your child’s space based on their unique abilities and needs

Until you observe your child and have a better understanding of their abilities with the bed, we recommend a 12-inch distance from the wall when just the platform is in use.  These recommendations are to avoid entrapment of your child between the wall and bed frame. Regulation states "if the bed is placed against a wall, the guardrail on that side is expected to prevent a child from being entrapped between the bed and the wall. The guardrail on the wall side of the bed must extend continuously from one end to the other." 

Sprout side rails, headboards, and footboards meet the ASTM Full-size Crib guidelines found in F1169-19.

Mattress Information

We recommend a mattress between 6-12 inches thick

Use the height calculator to determine the bed height depending on your mattress thickness.
