How to Choose the Best Cot Beds for Your Baby

If you're expecting a baby, it's important to choose a cot that will be safe and secure for your little one. Choose a cot that has fixed sides (rather than drop-sides) that meet strict UK safety standards.

This minimalist, stylish crib is our top choice from the Anyday range by John Lewis. It has three mattress positions, teething bars and an storage drawer. It is also simple to assemble, with clear instructions.

Comfort

The best crib for newborn cot bed keeps children comfortable and warm. Look for a soft, breathable fabric and make sure the mattress is snug to avoid any gaps, which could cause a suffocation risk. There are a variety of mattresses available: coils springs, foam and natural materials for allergy sufferers. Do your research to find the ideal mattress for your child.

It doesn't matter if you pick a conventional cot or a convertible, a good mattress is vital to your ease of use. It must provide the right support and encourage an ideal posture. The slats must be securely attached and not sliding. The slats must also be firmly attached to the frame so that your child does not become caught in the movement during sleep.

Ask your family and friends for recommendations or look at online reviews. Make sure you choose a mattress that's breathable, as they'll help maintain temperature and are less likely to harbour bacteria.

The majority of cots have a drawer for storage underneath and teething rails that stop your child from chewing the sides of the cot, and adjustable height bases to accommodate your child's growth. You can even buy a drop side for smaller babies or those who have medical conditions that make it difficult to bend over.

Look for a cot which is in compliance with the strict UK safety standard and is able to be easily transformed into a toddler's cot when it is time. This information is available in the product description and key specifications.

Safety

When choosing a cot, a safe sleeping environment is a must. The mattress should be snugly fitted and there shouldn't be gaps between the mattress and the sides or ends of the cot or cot-bed (large gaps can trap the child's arms or head). Verify that the mattress is firm and thin. Thick mattresses could increase the risk of SIDS. Many companies sell mattresses in a variety of materials including foam and natural materials that are suitable for those suffering from allergies. Some even come with an anti-microbial treatment. If your crib has a drop side, ensure it is in the upward position and locked securely.

A drop side should be allowed to drop only when an adult is present, this prevents accidental releases. Do not place your cot against the wall if it is a solid end. This can restrict airflow, which can lead to coffin death. Recent research suggests that slatted edges could be safer since they allow more airflow.

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

Some cots have an option that allows the base to be raised up to three levels. This is a fantastic security measure that allows your child's cot to grow with them. Other cots come with adjustable footplates, which are ideal for toddlers who wish to sit up in their beds.

Whenever you place your child in their cot, check whether there is no obvious danger - it must be kept away from heaters and power points, windows and curtains and blind cords (these are a strangulation hazard). When purchasing second-hand furniture, or heirlooms, make sure to look out for potential hazards to your child's safety such as labels and transfers. They may peel off and pose a danger.

If you're not sure how to safely use your cot, consult other parents for help or attend an local NCT New Baby class. If your cot has a manual, read it carefully before using it, and follow the safe-use instructions closely.

Style

Our panel was impressed by the mix of white and natural pine, as well as its innovative features, like under-bed storage drawers to keep all the baby necessities like bedding, nappies and a stunning array of baby outfits. It's also simple to put together with clear instructions and separate sets of screws for each section. It can also be converted into a toddler desk or bed as your child grows older (see product description for more information).

The teething rails are one of our favorite features. They stop your child from hitting their head against the crib's side or any protruding portion of the crib, like the handle or corner post. They also prevent them from chewing the wood and preventing them from getting suffocated. The cot also has an opening that can be removed to allow you to get access to your baby.

If your nursery isn't big enough, you might think about the possibility of a crib. It is smaller and occupies less space. However should you be planning on spending a lot of your baby's time in your bedroom, or if you need a bed that will last longer, you should choose a cot.

A cot isn't suitable 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 covers the thickness of mattresses, the materials used and other key elements of baby cot mattresses. The slats should not be too wide apart to stop your baby from falling off.

Storage

No matter if you're a first-time parent or an experienced one the amount of items that a baby requires is overwhelming. It's important to consider storage when choosing a cot-bed. Many cots come with additional storage options such as drawers in the under-bed or a top changer (available separately). Some can even be adapted to a toddler or a small single bed, which can extend their usability for longer.

Some cot sale beds can be further transformed into a daybed, as seen here on the Cam Cam Copenhagen Harlequin Cot.

Some cots are designed with more traditional designs and come with a large drawer under the bed that is perfect for storing toys, blankets clothes, and other baby essentials.

While this is a great idea if you're running out of space, it's important to be aware that you'll have to purchase an extra drawer. You might need to purchase an additional mattress and bedding since oval mattresses and sheets do not come with the cot.
