How to Choose the best cots for newborns Infant Cribs

A crib is one of the most essential items for your baby's nursery. It isn't easy to select the ideal crib, due to so many designs and safety concerns.

Choose a crib that adheres to the highest safety standards and includes no chewable or dangling parts. We also recommend a sleek crib with a variety of mattress sizes and a sleek, modern design.

Safety

Follow the safe sleeping guidelines of the American Academy of Pediatrics when placing and assembling your baby's crib. Avoid placing any items that could cause injury or harm in the nursery of your baby. This includes blankets, pillows, and sheepskins. Also, avoid bumper pads, stuffed toys and blankets. Your baby should not sleep with any teddy bears, dolls or stuffed animals bigger than 15 inches. They could easily fall into or be caught between your baby and the crib bars, or they could be engulfed by the mattress.

The best cribs for infants are made from safe materials that are free of VOCs and other toxic chemicals. They also meet strict federal laws, state and local standards for structural safety. They're also third-party tested to ensure quality and safety. (Think GREENGAURD Gold or ASTM, JMPA or CPSIA certs!) They're also designed to be durable and flexible, allowing them to grow with your child.

It is essential to select cribs that meet current safety standards, no matter if you're purchasing a new or used crib. Secondhand cribs may have their structural integrity weakened due to humidity, age and frequent use, posing serious dangers to your baby.

The slats of your crib should be spaced no more than 2-3/8 inches (6 centimeters) apart to keep babies from getting trapped between them and the hardware on the crib must be secured. Examine the slats, mattress support rims and the hardware for any loose or damaged components.

It is also advisable to stay clear of cribs that have been used by other children and/or pets, as their safety may have been compromised. Don't buy or accept a crib with a drop-side rail. This feature was removed in 2012 by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission for Top Ranked cribs safety reasons.

Style

While all cribs have to meet strict safety standards, there are a lot of design differences. Some differences are purely cosmetic, such as whether the slats all have the same length or are spaced further apart, while others can make it difficult to clean and use the crib. Certain features, such as finials and drop sides, aren't safe and should be avoided and others, like adjustable mattress height and casters/wheels--are highly sought-after by many parents.

A crib is not meant to be used for toys or clothes. It's designed to be a place for babies to sleep. You can also include the crib on your registry to receive help from friends and family in the event you need help.

Cribs are available in a variety of sizes and shapes, but the ones we prefer combine style and functionality. For instance the Storkcraft Equinox 3-in-1 is minimal and looks sharp. It's GREENGUARD Gold certified, which is an essential feature for any baby product that is non-toxic and it's able to convert into a toddler bed and daybed (toddler conversion kit available separately).

Other cribs have more traditional designs, such as the DaVinci Jayden cots 4 tots-in-1. It's a stately choice that can be incorporated into big nursery spaces, but it takes up more space than smaller minimalist options and has exposed hardware that some find distracting. It only has three mattress levels, which is half the competition's number. It's not as durable as our other choices.

Another option that has modern design is the Babyletto Hudson. The Babyletto Hudson's all-round mesh and hidden hardware help to improve airflow, and Dr. Casares believes that this is a feature that new parents appreciate. It can be raised to relieve reflux and colic. This is suitable for babies who are 6 months and the birth. It's also GREENGUARD certified GOLD and comes with a complimentary mattress. It's important to note that this bed is more expensive than the other top picks, and it requires an additional conversion kit to accommodate toddler beds.

Adjustable Mattress Height

If your baby sleeps in their crib, it's important that the mattress is at the correct height. This will ensure that your child isn't able to climb out which could be hazardous or even fatal. A higher mattress also helps to keep your child safe from overheating or becoming suffocated.

A quality crib should include adjustable rails or slats which allow you to raise the mattress or lower it as your child grows. Most good cribs will also include a conversion kit so you can turn the crib into a toddler bed or daybed after your baby outgrows it. Finally, it's recommended to select a crib that has been tested and inspected by a third party organization for safety. The Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association seal and GREENGUARD Gold Certification are two examples. These certifications guarantee the crib of your baby is free of finishes or chemicals.

The Graco Sweet2Sleep Crib is one of the top-rated cribs available, and it's simple to put together and has a simple design that doesn't include any jarring pieces or parts. The sides of the crib are shorter than the other models. However, one test subject said that their baby slept well and that the crib was still in good shape when she gave it to a relative for her second child.

Another great option is the Stokke Sleepi Crib, which is a unique oval-shaped design that gives it a modern look. It's a bit more expensive than most cribs, but it is durable and has numerous options to make up the cost. It can, for instance, be converted into a bassinet or a toddler bed, and it is able to be moved on wheels, making it easy to move from room to room. It has a canopy which can be used to create a space more akin to a womb your baby. It adds a fashionable accent to any nursery.

The crib doesn't come with mattress. You'll need to buy one separately. It's a secure, comfortable crib that will adapt to your child's needs as they go from newborn to toddler.

No Dangling or Chewable Components

The safest cribs are those that have no dangling or chewable components. Babies love to grasp things, and if a piece of furniture is hanging from or above their crib, it could pull off the rails or become an entanglement hazard. If a parent decorates their crib with toys or other items, they must make sure the items are securely secured and aren't in the reach of Baby.

In addition to the safety features of our best infant cribs, we also consider how simple it is to put together. The ideal crib will be simple enough that you can do it yourself and doesn't require special tools or extensive assembly time. Most parents report that it takes less than an hour to put together the modern crib, and the directions are generally simple to follow.

It is crucial to choose a crib that will last many years. Select a crib that is able to be transformed from a crib to an adult bed, and later a full-size mattress.

The Ikea Nestig Cloud crib is our top pick for a convertible crib that can be used as a bassinet during the beginning, and later transformed into an infant bed, a daybed or a larger bed. It is designed to last and comes in many colors so you can match it to your nursery's design theme.

Stork Craft Equinox is another fantastic alternative. This beautiful, minimalist-style crib has a low profile that allows parents who are small to touch their child and comfort them. It also has a stellar reputation for quality and cots to Tots is available in cherry, white and espresso colors as well as natural pine colors.

This crib is Greenguard Gold Certified, which means that it is constructed from sustainable New Zealand pine and is free from toxins such as lead and phthalates. It also surpasses standards set by the government like ASTM, CPSC and JPMA. The only thing missing is the toddler rail. You can buy it separately. This is a great option for those who are looking for an affordable, high-quality, and low-cost crib that will last.
