On the Java edition, placing an observer next to a bed will send a redstone pulse whenever a player or villager enters/exits a bed.
On the Bedrock edition, an observer DOES NOT send a pulse when placed next to a bed and a player or villager enters/exits said bed.

This feature does not work as designed for the platform it was designed on...."
^ Taken from the Parity Request Guide you linked. Observers are designed to detect blockstate changes (such as a bed changing from empty to being used), there is currently a bug in the game that prevents observers from doing this. This issue is basically the same as https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-43841, https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-36783, and https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-41074 and yet all of those issues are allowed to remain open. How is this one any different? @@unknown
(Tested before reported - from 'Technical Bugs List' https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nziKYzCr4pBdCRj2gIMlfr9MVdWHd6HyafdiBHx9F0c/edit)
This issue happens in 1.14.30 hotfix and 1.15.0.51 also.
The issue reported here is unlike the other reported issues mentioned in the comment above as reasons for reopening this report. In those (crop growth, netherwart growth, and pumpkin stems attaching/detaching) there is a visible change in the block. With beds being slept in there is no change in the block whatsoever. There just happens to be an entity on top of the block. So so the argument given
Observers are designed to detect blockstate changes (such as a bed changing from empty to being used), there is currently a bug in the game that prevents observers from doing this
is not valid because it rests on a false premise. There simply is no block state change for an observer to observe. Beds apparently were implemented differently in Java, but that doesn't mean beds in Bedrock are not working as designed.
Thank you for your report!
However, this issue has been closed as Invalid.
