The Aela Cot Toddler Bed Half Frame is an adaptable cot-to-toddler sleeping solution featuring removable sides and a 3-step adjustable mattress base designed to accommodate your little one’s changing needs.
Available in White and Buttermilk Wood, the Aela can transition from an enclosed cot into a more accessible toddler configuration when appropriate.
Mattress included with the bed – no separate mattress purchase required.
The Aela Cot Toddler Bed Half Frame is a beautifully designed convertible sleeping solution created to grow alongside your little one. Combining timeless nursery styling with practical functionality, the Aela features removable sides, a 3-step adjustable mattress base and an included mattress, giving parents a complete and adaptable sleeping solution from the nursery stage through to the toddler years.
Available in White and Buttermilk Wood finishes, the Aela has a clean contemporary appearance with vertical slatted sides and softly finished lines that work beautifully in modern, Scandinavian-inspired and neutral children’s interiors.
Best of all, the mattress is included with the bed, so there is no need to purchase the mattress separately.
Mattress Included
The Aela Cot Toddler Bed Half Frame comes complete with a mattress, providing added convenience and value.
The included mattress is designed to fit the sleeping area of the Aela, giving you a coordinated bed-and-mattress combination without needing to source the mattress separately.
3-Step Adjustable Mattress Base
The Aela features a 3-position adjustable mattress base, allowing the sleeping height to be changed as your baby grows and becomes more mobile.
The higher setting provides convenient access during the early newborn stage. As your baby develops and begins sitting, pulling themselves up or standing, the mattress base can be progressively lowered.
This adjustable design allows the cot configuration to adapt to different stages of your child’s early development.
Removable Side Panels
The Aela has been designed with removable side panels, allowing the sleeping space to transition as your child grows.
Once your little one is developmentally ready to move away from the fully enclosed cot configuration, the sides can be removed and the bed converted into a more accessible toddler-style sleeping arrangement.
This gives the Aela greater longevity than a conventional fixed cot.
Toddler Bed Half-Frame Configuration
When converted for toddler use, the Aela can be configured with the distinctive half-frame side shown in the product images.
The half-frame provides a partially enclosed side while leaving an opening that allows your little one to get in and out of bed more independently.
This creates a useful transitional sleeping arrangement between an enclosed baby cot and a more open children’s bed.
Designed to Grow With Your Child
The combination of an adjustable mattress base and removable sides means the Aela can be adapted rather than immediately replaced as your child’s needs change.
During the earlier stage, it can be used in its enclosed cot configuration. The mattress base can then be lowered through its three available positions as your baby develops.
When the appropriate stage is reached, the removable sides allow the furniture to transition into its toddler configuration.
Clean Slatted Design
The vertical slatted detailing gives the Aela a light, timeless appearance while maintaining the distinctive character of contemporary nursery furniture.
Its clean lines make the bed easy to coordinate with different bedding, rugs, storage pieces and decorative accessories as your child’s bedroom changes over time.
Available in Two Finishes
The Aela Cot Toddler Bed Half Frame is available in:
Both options have been selected to coordinate beautifully with contemporary children’s interiors and the wider Aela furniture collection.
Beautiful From Nursery to Toddler Room
The adaptable Aela design allows the same piece of furniture to remain part of your child’s bedroom as the room evolves.
Style the White finish with soft pink, sage, lilac or colourful bedding, or pair the Buttermilk Wood finish with warm neutrals, woven baskets and natural textures for a softer organic look.
Part of the Aela Collection
The Aela Cot Toddler Bed Half Frame coordinates beautifully with other pieces from the Aela Collection, including the Aela Change Table, Chest of Drawers, Bedside Table and children’s storage furniture.
This makes it easy to create a beautifully coordinated nursery and gradually adapt the room as your child grows.

Adjustability
Regular Cleaning
Wipe the Aela Cot Toddler Bed regularly using a clean, soft and dry cloth. For light marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry the surface immediately afterwards.
Mattress Care
Because the mattress is included with the Aela bed, keep it protected with a correctly fitted mattress protector and fitted sheet.
Clean spills promptly according to the mattress care instructions and always allow the mattress to dry completely before replacing bedding.
Periodically remove bedding and allow the mattress to air in a clean, dry and well-ventilated room.
Mattress Base Care
Regularly inspect the adjustable mattress base and supporting fittings.
When moving the base between its three available positions, ensure all fittings are correctly installed and securely tightened before placing the mattress back onto the base.
Removable Side Panels
Always follow the correct assembly procedure when removing or reinstalling the side panels.
Before allowing your child to use the bed, ensure the remaining frame, side components and all associated fittings are secure.
Avoid Harsh Cleaning Products
Do not use bleach, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, solvents or harsh household chemicals on the bed frame.
Protect the Finish
Avoid dragging sharp or abrasive objects against the frame. Wipe away spills promptly and do not allow standing moisture to remain on the White or Buttermilk Wood surfaces.
Check Fittings Regularly
Periodically inspect the bed frame, slats, mattress base, screws, bolts and other fittings.
Tighten loose fittings when necessary and discontinue use if any important structural component becomes broken, damaged, missing or unstable.
Heat & Sunlight
Position the bed away from fireplaces, heaters, open flames and other direct heat sources. Avoid prolonged exposure to strong direct sunlight where possible.
Indoor Use Only
The Aela Cot Toddler Bed is designed exclusively for indoor use. Keep it in a clean, dry and well-ventilated nursery or children’s bedroom.
Child Safety
Always use the appropriate mattress-base position and bed configuration for your child’s developmental stage.
As your baby becomes increasingly mobile, the mattress base should be lowered accordingly. Transition to the toddler configuration only when your child is developmentally ready and according to the supplied product instructions.
Never modify the frame or use it in an unintended configuration.

Beautiful Bed and Great Value
We are very happy with the Aela Cot Toddler Bed. The design is beautiful and looks lovely in our little one’s bedroom. I especially like that the mattress comes included because it saved us from having to look for the correct size separately. The adjustable mattress base is also very practical, and knowing that we can remove the sides later makes it feel like a bed we will be able to use for much longer.

Love That It Grows With My Child
What attracted us to the Aela was the fact that it can change as our child grows. Having three different mattress-base positions is very convenient, and later we will be able to remove the sides and use the toddler configuration. We chose the white finish and it looks clean and beautiful with the rest of our nursery furniture. The included mattress was an excellent bonus.

Such a Lovely Nursery Bed
The Aela is exactly the style I wanted for our nursery. It has a simple design that still looks special, and the white finish works perfectly with our neutral décor. I was also pleased that the mattress was already included with the bed. There was no need to worry about finding a separate mattress that would fit. I’m very happy with the overall design and functionality.

Practical From Cot to Toddler Stage
We wanted something that we wouldn’t have to replace as soon as our baby outgrew the cot stage, and this was one of the main reasons we chose the Aela. The adjustable base is useful now, and the removable sides mean we can convert it when our little one is ready for a toddler bed. Having the mattress included also made the purchase feel much more complete.

Buttermilk Finish Is Gorgeous
We ordered the Buttermilk Wood finish and it looks beautiful in person. It has a warm and calming appearance that works really well with the natural colours in our child’s room. I love the slatted design and the fact that the bed can be adjusted and converted later. The included mattress was another big plus for us because everything we needed for the bed came together.
