Choosing the Best Crib Newborn

The Westport Cot Bed is a minimalist crib that can look amazing in a modern Scandi nursery. It also comes with a variety of versatility with three different mattress support heights and the capability to convert into a toddler bed.

Cribs consume a lot of space, so bassinets could be a better option in case your home is small. Many parents choose a crib because of security concerns.

Safety

Choosing the best crib newborn is essential to your baby's health and well-being. It is important to ensure that the crib meets the current safety standards and is free from hazards that may cause harm to your Baby Cot as they sleep. It should be sturdy and well-constructed, without loose parts that could get caught on clothing or create the risk of choking. It is also crucial to follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding assembly and use, and check the crib regularly for indications of wear or damage.

Be sure to measure the distance between the slats. It should not be more than 2 and 3/8 inches, to keep your baby's head or limbs from being trapped between them. You should be capable of seeing and reaching your baby's crib. If you're not reach your Baby Crib, the slats may be too close together and should be more spacious.

The mattress support system is an additional aspect to consider when choosing the crib. It is important to adjust the heights so that you can lower the mattress as your baby grows. This will decrease the chance that your child will climb out of the crib once they begin to crawl.

Other safety features to consider include the fitted sheet that is able to fit the mattress in a secure way and an enduring and solid construction. You should also select a crib that has 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 for them to sleep alone.

Also, ensure that the crib is positioned away from windows and radiators, and that any dangling objects like blind cords or curtains are out of their reach. You should also remove items that might pose the risk of choking like pillows or blankets. Be wary of purchasing second-hand cribs as they may not have met the safety standards of today or been recalled for other reasons.

Design

It is important to remember that cribs may appear similar, but must comply with strict safety standards.

Most cribs have circular bars that do not have gaps or rough surfaces that could catch the baby cots on sale or squeeze them.
