Choosing the Best Crib Newborn

The Westport cot beds Bed will look gorgeous in a Scandi nursery. It also provides a good variety of versatility, with three mattress support levels and the possibility of transforming into the bed of a toddler.

Bassinets are a better choice for those with a small house. Cribs can take up more space. Many parents prefer a crib due to of safety concerns.

Safety

Choosing the best crib newborn is essential to your baby's health and wellbeing. You want to make sure that it is in line with current safety standards and is free of hazards that could cause harm during sleep. It should be constructed well and strong, with no loose pieces that may catch on clothing or create danger of choking. It is essential to follow the instructions of the manufacturer for assembly and use and to inspect the crib on a regular basis.

The first thing to look at is the space between slats. It should not be more than 2 and 3/8 inches, to prevent your baby's head or limbs from being trapped between them. You must also be able to easily reach and see your baby in the crib. If you aren't then the slats are close to each other and should be larger.

Another aspect of the crib to consider is the mattress support system. It should be adjustable so that you can lower the mattress of your crib as your child grows. This will decrease the chance that your baby will climb out of the crib once they begin to crawl.

A fitted sheet that is secure enough to fit over the bed and a sturdy and stable construction are other security features you should be looking for. You should also choose a crib that has fixed sides rather than one with drop sides, which could be hazardous for your baby. It is also advisable to share a room with your baby for the first six months or so, and then move them into their own room when they are old enough to be supervised when they are sleeping on their own.

Last but not least, ensure that the crib is removed from windows and radiators, and that any hanging objects such as blind cords or curtains are kept out of reach. It is also recommended to remove any items that could be a choking hazard, such as pillows or blankets. You should also be wary of purchasing cribs that are secondhand, as they may not be in compliance with the safety standards of today or been recalled for other reasons.

Design

It is crucial to keep in mind that cribs can look similar, but must adhere to strict safety standards. For this reason, most cribs we looked at have a similar design to ensure uniformity of structural integrity. Most cribs have circular bars that do not have gaps or rough surfaces that could catch a baby or pinch them. We also evaluated each crib and rated it for its ease of use and assembly. We suggest choosing the crib with less parts to avoid confusion.

One of our top cribs is the Evolur Sprout Crib, which comes with an elegant, modern design and comes in several colors, including two-toned. Additionally, it features a universal mattress fit and is Greenguard Gold certified to have minimal volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can off-gas into the nursery.

Another alternative is the Stork Craft Equinox 3-in-1. This crib is sleek, modern and minimalist in appearance. It's perfect for modern nursery designs. The crib comes in various colors and has four different mattress heights, meaning your baby can use it from birth to toddler.

If you're planning to have more children, you might think about a convertible crib. These options can be transformed into a toddler's bed and then a full-size mattress, providing the best value for money. The Graco Sweet2Sleep Crib is an example of a convertible crib that received excellent marks from our parents who tested it. Many of them said that the drop-down side rail made nighttime feedings easier and safer, and that the crib was big enough for a baby who was sleeping with the parents to feel comfortable while mom and dad were sleeping.

If you are looking for a classic style DaVinci's Carter's Colby 4-in-1 is a great option. This crib is cheaper than the Stork Craft and is a classic design that is compatible with most nursery decors. It comes with three different heights for the mattress however, some parents and toddlers might consider it too shallow.

Mattress

A washable crib mattress will be useful for infants. Diaper leaks, baby spit up and other accidents can make mattresses damp and filthy that can cause mildew and other bacteria that can be harmful to infants. Choose a mattress that is easily cleaned using an mild cleaner or cloth. Also, choose a waterproof cover to prevent fluids from entering the mattress.

A firm crib mattress is the best crib for newborn choice for infants because it provides the greatest support for their developing spines. A mattress that is extremely firm reduces the chance of SIDS, which is more likely to happen when a baby's head sinks into a mattress that is soft.

If you are looking for a firm crib mattress, examine the label to make sure it meets Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) standards. The CPSC requires that mattresses be tested for waterproofing, flammability lead, and other chemicals that might pose danger to infants. You'll also see certifications such as Greenguard CertiPUR, GOTS and CertiPURUS which are a great indicator that the mattress has been tested for emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which can harm infants their nervous and respiratory systems.

The weight of the crib mattress is another thing to consider. Regular nighttime sheet changes require you to lift and move the mattress, so if you have difficulty lifting heavy objects or don't want to carry a heavy item then consider getting a lighter crib mattress. Newton Wovenaire, for example is only 8 pounds, while Naturepedic Organic Crib Mattress – Dual Firmness weighs 20 pounds. This makes it one of the heavier mattresses featured in this review. It is also made of foam instead of inners with woven-core that makes it much easier to move around in comparison to a heavier traditional coil mattress.

Assembly

New parents will appreciate a crib that is easy to assemble. Look for Cot Bed one equipped with hardware that is securely held, no sharp edges or rough spots that could pinch your baby's skin. Avoid cribs beds with drop-sides or headboard/footboard cuts -- these items aren't in compliance with the safety standards of today.

When you're searching for a crib, keep in mind that you'll probably require a toddler bed conversion kit (if you decide to purchase a convertible crib). These kits are sold separately by a majority of manufacturers. These kits are often cheap and can aid your child in making the transition from a smaller bed more smoothly.

Many new parents appreciate the durability that can be found in the convertible crib and are a great investment for families with multiple children. The cribs are built to last and can be transformed into toddler beds, daybeds or full-size beds.
