How to Choose Linen Savers for Children
Children need smaller, comfortable pads that protect the bed without being bulky. This guide helps parents and carers choose linen savers suited to children.
Suitable sizes
Smaller pads such as 40 x 60 cm or 38 x 51 cm are usually enough for a child. Choose a size that covers the at-risk area without being oversized.
Comfort matters
Look for a soft top layer for comfort against the skin, and a waterproof backing to protect the mattress.
Travel and sleepovers
Disposable pads are handy for travel, sleepovers and short-term needs. See our travel guide.
