Choosing the Best Crib Newborn

The Westport cheap cot beds Bed is an elegant crib that will look amazing in a modern Scandi nursery. It is also very flexible, as it has three different mattress support heights. Additionally, it can be transformed into the bed of a toddler.

Cribs can take up a lot room, so bassinets might be a better option in case your home is small. However, many parents choose a crib for safety reasons.

Safety

Choosing the best crib newborn (my review here) is crucial for your baby's health and wellbeing. You must ensure that it is in compliance with current safety standards and is free of any hazards that may cause harm to your baby while they sleep. It should be sturdy and well-constructed, without loose parts that could get caught on clothing or pose a choking hazard. It is also essential to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for assembly and use, and check the crib regularly for indications of wear or damage.

Examine the distance between slats. It should be no more than 2 and 3/8 inches apart, to prevent your baby's head or limbs being trapped between them. You should be capable of seeing and reaching your baby's crib. If not see, the slats need to be wider and not so close together.

Another aspect of the crib that you should be aware of is the mattress support system. It is important to adjust the levels so that you can lower the mattress as your child grows. This will reduce the risk that your baby will climb out of the crib once they begin to crawl.

Other security features to look out for include the fitted sheet that is able to fit the mattress with ease, and an enduring and solid construction. You should also select a crib with fixed sides, rather than ones with drop sides, which can be dangerous for your baby. You should also sleep in the same bedroom as your baby until they are old enough to sleep alone.

In the end, you must ensure that the crib is away from radiators and windows, and that any dangling objects like curtains or blind cords are not within reach. You should also take away anything that could create danger of choking such as blankets or pillows. Be cautious when buying used cribs as they may not be in compliance with current safety standards, or have been recalled.

Design

While cribs may look all the same, it is important to remember that each must comply with strict safety standards. For this reason, most of the cribs we reviewed have a similar layout to ensure consistency in terms of structural solidity. For example, most have circular bars that don't have any gaps or rough areas that could entangle or snag babies. We also tested and rated each crib based on the ease of use and assemble. More parts can mean more confusion, so we suggest choosing one that has clear instructions that are easy to follow to minimize frustration.

The Evolur Sprout crib is among our top picks. It is stylish, contemporary design and comes in a variety of colors, including two-toned options.

It is less expensive than the Stork Craft and features a classic design that will complement most every nursery. It comes with three different heights for the mattress, but some parents and toddlers might feel it is a bit low.

Mattress

Newborns are messy creatures, and a washable crib mattress is a must. Spit-up from babies and diaper leaks can cause mattresses to become damp and dirty which can lead to mildew or bacteria that could be harmful to infants. Look for a product that can be washed with a cloth or scrubbed with mild cleaner, and choose a waterproof mattress cover to prevent fluids from seeping into the mattress and causing health problems.

Find mattresses that are designed to last for 10 years, so it will be ready for toddlers and beyond. Many of the mattresses featured in this review are reversible with toddler and infant sides which allows you to use them from the time of birth until your child is old enough to be the full-size bed.

There are also certifications like Greenguard CertiPUR-US, GOTS, and CertiPUR-US, which are a good sign that the mattress has been examined for the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which can harm infants' respiratory and nervous systems.

The weight of the mattress is another factor to take into consideration. If you're unable cots to tots lift heavy objects or don't want to move an item that weighs a lot it is possible to choose an easier mattress. Newton Wovenaire, for example is only 8 pounds, while Naturepedic Organic Crib Mattress – Dual Firmness weighs 20lbs. This makes it one of the heavier mattresses featured in this review. It is also constructed of foam rather than woven-core inners, which makes it easier to maneuver when compared to traditional coil mattresses that weigh more.

Assembly

A crib that is easy to put together is great for parents with young children. You want to find a crib with firmly-secured hardware and with no sharp edges or rough patches that could rub the skin of your baby cots on sale. Avoid cribs that have drop-sides and headboard/footboard cuts. These features aren't up to the safety standards of today.

If you decide to purchase a convertible crib, you will require an additional kit to convert it into an adult bed. The majority of manufacturers offer these kits separately. They're often inexpensive, and they'll aid your child's transition to larger beds more easily.
