What Is My Bed Size? (Australian Bed Sizes Explained)

The first step to choosing the right bedding is knowing your mattress size.

Australian bed sizes are different to the US, UK, Europe, and New Zealand, so it’s always best to double-check measurements before purchasing fitted sheets, quilt covers, doona inserts, or pillowcases.

The most common adult bed size in Australia is a Queen mattress, while the most common kids bed sizes are cot, single, and king single.

Why Fitted Sheet Depth Matters (Especially for Kids Beds)

It’s not just about length and width — fitted sheet depth matters too.

If you’ve ever struggled with sheets riding up, popping off, or constantly needing to be re-tucked, it’s usually because the fitted sheet isn’t deep enough for your mattress.

At The Cuddle Collective, our fitted sheets are designed for real family life — wriggly toddlers, busy mornings, and washing machines that never stop running.

✔ Deep fitted sheet sides

✔ Secure elastic for a snug fit

✔ Designed to stay smooth and tidy

✔ Organic cotton bedding that feels soft and breathable

✔ Perfect for kids bedrooms, nurseries, and family homes

Our fitted sheets are made from premium organic cotton — gentle on sensitive skin, breathable for warm sleepers, and durable enough to handle everyday use.

✔ double sided

✔ made from organic cotton

Bedding Styling Recommendations (Cuddle Collective Approved)

Not sure how to make your bed look calm, cosy, and professionally styled? Here are our favourite bedding tips.

1. Layer Your Bedding (Like You Layer Outfits)

The secret to a beautiful kids bedroom or neutral master bedroom is layering.

Try:

fitted sheet + flat sheet

reversible quilt + doona cover

pillowcases + euro cushions

blanket folded at the end of the bed

Layering creates that soft “styled but lived-in” look without needing clutter or too much decor.

2. Size Up Your Quilt for a Cosy, Luxe Look

Want your bed to look fuller and more expensive? Size up your quilt or doona.

For example:

Double bed → try a Queen quilt cover

Queen bed → try a King quilt cover

King Single → try a Double quilt cover (depending on your look)

Sizing up creates extra drape, softness, and that dreamy “hotel bed” feel.

3. Add Extra Pillows (Yes, Even in Kids Rooms)

Pillows make a bed look instantly more styled.

A simple recommendation:

Single / King Single: 1–2 pillows + 1 euro cushion

Double / Queen: 4 pillows + 2 euro cushions

King: 4 pillows + 2–3 euro cushions

Bonus tip: Choose neutral tones and calming prints to keep the room feeling peaceful.

Here’s what we always recommend:

Choose organic cotton sheets for breathable, gentle comfort

Make sure fitted sheets have enough depth and strong elastic

Use a mattress protector to protect your bed long-term

Size up quilts if you want a softer, drapier look

Use pillowcases with a secure fold so pillows stay in place

Choose timeless neutral designs that grow with your child
