Oh, dear, the joys of children. (I've got two.) Wipe up what you can with a towel, then dab it with a wet towel until you've removed all you can. Sprinkle with baking soda, allow to dry and then vacuum it off. Be sure to check down the side of the mattress, as well as the carpet/floor, to prevent a sour milk smell later.
The good thing is that you can cover up the visible stain with sheets. If it continues to smell, see if you can take it out into the sun for awhile, or try repeating the baking soda treatment.
Maybe from now on, all foods and drink should be strictly restricted to the kitchen, the dining room, and the great outdoors! Make those places inviting and fun places to eat by adding flowers, cleaning up any clutter, and maybe scattering cushions where you want to eat outdoors. It'll be fun, and will save on the housework in many ways!

blotting with a moist towel. might even try a moist towel with soap. do the best you can and be happy that it's just a mattress, not your new white couch or new car seats. sheets cover up the mattress.

dip it in to the soap water and left it there about a few hours.
Then use vinegar simply pour some on to a warm towel and rub it off.
