The standard size dimensions for a cot mattress in Australia are 130cm x 69cm.

Most cot manufacturers adhere to the agreed standard within a 1-2cm variance.

There are some brands however who make their cots significantly larger than standard sizing - check the Product Safety Sticker on your cot to find the recommended mattress size.

A well-fitted sheet should fit snugly on the mattress, so it doesn't slide off or get tangled as baby sleeps.

With fully elasticised corners to keep their shape, many fitted sheets are made from fabric that can stretch to fit mattresses of any shape, including oval, round or rectangle.

Fitted cot sheets also allow for the depth of the mattress, which can be between 10-20cm. If the cot mattress is slightly smaller than the sheet, any excess fabric can be pulled tightly under the mattress to avoid the sheet slipping or bunching and ensure a snug fit.
