Advice please

Hello, my daughter was diagnosed with autism in January. I have a real trouble getting her to settle to sleep at night, she gets very frustrated that she's now broken her cot by jumping to much. She is almost 3 and I dont know whether to buy her a new cotbed or dive straight in and buy her a bed? She has little communication and I cant reason or talk to her. I'm not sure whether trying to get her into a bed is the right thing or not but I don't want to risk buying a new cot for her to then break it again. 

I was also thinking of changing her mattress from a foam one to a spring one, does anybody know whether it will make a difference to her sleep? Or a difference in general? 

Thankyou :) Any suggestions welcome!!
