Comfort

There are a variety of mattresses available, including coils springs, foam, and even natural materials for allergy sufferers. Do your research to find the most suitable one for your child.

If you choose a convertible or standard cot, the primary factor to comfort is a mattress of high-quality that is supportive and promotes a healthy posture. The slats need to be firmly attached, and not sliding. The slats should also be securely fixed to the frame, to ensure that your child will not become caught in the movement during sleep.

If you're not sure which mattress to buy, consult your family members or friends or look up online reviews for suggestions. Make sure you choose a mattress that's ventilated, as they'll aid in regulate temperature and are less likely to harbour bacteria.

You can also buy an extra drop-side for babies that aren't tall enough or suffer from medical conditions that make it difficult to bend over.

Find a cot that is compliant with the strict UK safety standards and is able to be easily transformed into a toddler's bed when it's time. Look for this information in the description or in the key specifications.

Safety

When selecting a cot, a safe sleeping environment is a must. The mattress should fit snugly and there should be no gaps between the mattress and the ends or sides of the cot/cot-bed (large gaps can restrict the child's arms or head). Check that the mattress is not too firm and thin. Mattresses that are thick could increase the risk of SIDS. Many companies offer a choice of mattresses, ranging from basic foam to natural substances for allergy sufferers. Some contain anti-microbial treatments. If your cot has drop-sides, ensure that it is locked and in the upward position.

Drop sides should only be allowed to go down when an adult is present in the room. This will prevent accidental release. If your coffin has a solid edge be sure to avoid placing it against the wall as it will block airflow and can cause coffin death. The latest research suggests that slatted ends may be safer since they permit more airflow.

If your cot has a fixed side, opt for this as it's safer when your child begins to crawl and then pull themselves up. When your child is confidently climbing and standing, it's time to move to a junior bed.

Some cots come with an option that allows the base to be raised up to three different levels. This is a fantastic safety measure and enables the cot of your child to grow with the child. Some cots have adjustable footplates, which are great for toddlers who want to sit up in their bed.

When putting your child's cot in the crib, make sure there aren't any visible dangers. It should be put away from heaters and power points. Also, keep it away from windows, curtains, and blind cords. These can all pose a strangulation risk. When buying second-hand furniture or heirlooms, be sure to check for potential hazards to your child's safety such as labels and transfers. They can come off and pose a danger.

If you're not sure how to safely use your cot, consult other parents for help or take part in an local NCT New Baby class. If your cot comes with a guide be sure to read it before using it and adhere to the directions.

Style

With its stunning sleigh design This gorgeous cot bed will look great in your nursery. The panel was impressed by the mix of natural and white wood, as well as the innovative features like under-bed storage drawers for all baby essentials, like bedding, nappies and an impressive array of baby clothes. It's also simple to build with clear instructions and separate screws for each section. It can also be converted into a toddler desk or bed as your child gets older (see product description for more details).

They also stop children from chewing on the wood and preventing them from being suffocated. The cot also has an opening that can be dropped to make it easier for access to your newborn. We love that the cot can be converted into a toddler bed, and that it's strong enough to last up to four years. It also met strict UK safety standards.

Cot beds are typically larger than cribs and can be transformed into toddler beds when your child is ready and you can avoid buying another bed until they're ready to transition. However, they can be pricier upfront than a standard crib.

If your nursery is small, a crib could be the best choice for you as it is smaller and takes up less space, but should your baby be expected to spend most of the time in their parents' bedroom or you're looking for a more durable bed, opt for a cot.

A crib isn't safe for babies to sleep in if it does not meet the strict UK safety standards set out in BS EN 716 and BS 8509, which deals with mattress thicknesses, materials and other essential elements of cot mattresses for babies. The slats should not be too far apart to prevent your baby from falling out.

Stores

The amount of baby gear you'll need is a mess whether you're a new parent or a seasoned one. This is the reason it's important to think about storage options when selecting a crib bed. Many cots come with additional storage options like drawers under the bed or a coordinating top changer (available separately). Some cots can be converted into a toddler bed or small single bed to extend their use.

Some cot beds can be transformed into a daybed as shown on the Cam Cam Copenhagen Harlequin Cot. This is a great option for those who like the flexibility of a design. The conversion is simple and requires only the removal of ONE side panel. This will allow parents to reduce the expense of the purchase of a separate bed.

A few cot beds have hanging rails that can be used to store muslins, dummies and other small items. This helps keep everything neat, tidy and organised. It also looks beautiful. These items are easily accessible to parents and make it easier for parents to feed their child.

A teething rail is a important feature that's included in some cots and tots. This can help to keep your baby from chewing on the wood, which could cause irritation. Some cots are designed with a more traditional style and include a large under-bed storage drawer that is perfect for storing toys, blankets, clothes and other baby necessities.

While this is a great idea if you're in a tight space, you must remember that you will require a separate extra drawer. You might need to purchase a separate mattress and bedding since oval mattresses and sheets do not come with the cot.
