How to Choose the Best cot for newborn infant cribs, Ressourcerie`s recent blog post,

A crib is among the most essential pieces of your baby's nursery. However, choosing a suitable crib can be a daunting task, especially with so many different styles and security concerns.

Find cribs that meet the most stringent safety standards and has no dangling or chewable components. We recommend a crib with a broad range of mattress height settings and a stylish design that is in line with your style.

Safety

Follow the safe sleep guidelines of the American Academy of Pediatrics when assembling and positioning your child's crib. It is essential to stay clear of putting anything in your baby's crib that could cause injury or harm, including pillows, blankets as well as sheepskins, stuffed toys, and bumper pads (see our complete guide to safe sleeping for more details). Also, your baby should not sleep with any teddy bears dolls or stuffed animals larger than 15 inches. These items can easily get caught between the crib bars or be stuck in them. They may also get taken up by the mattress.

The best cribs for infants are made of materials that are free of VOCs, toxic chemicals and other harmful substances. They also meet strict federal laws, Cot Bed state and local requirements for structural safety. They're also tested by third parties to ensure safety and quality. (Think GREENGAURD Gold or ASTM, JMPA or CPSIA certifications!) And they are designed to last and are adaptable, so they can adapt to your child's needs.

If you're buying a new crib or used, it's crucial to choose a crib that is in line with today's rigorous safety standards. Secondhand cribs may lose their structural integrity due to aging, humidity and prolonged use, which can pose serious risks to your infant.

The slats on your crib should not be more than 3/8 inches (6 centimeters) apart to keep infants from getting wedged between them and the hardware that is on the crib should be secure. Check the slats, mattress support rims and hardware for any broken or loose components.

It is recommended to stay clear of cribs that were used by children or pets in the past, since their safety could be at risk. Don't buy or purchase an older crib that has a drop side rail, which was deemed unsafe by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission in 2012 due to security reasons.

Style

While all cribs must adhere to strict safety standards, there are numerous design variations. Some are purely aesthetic, like whether the slats are all the same length or placed closer apart and others have a significant impact on the ease of the crib to maintain and use. Some features like drop sides and finials are not safe and should not be used. Other features, like the adjustable mattress height and Best Infant Cribs wheels, are desirable by a lot of parents.

A crib is not meant cots to tots be used as a place for toys or clothes. It's only intended to be a place for babies to sleep. You can also put the crib on your registry to get help from family and friends in the event you need help.

Cribs come in many different styles, but we prefer ones that blend design and function. The Storkcraft Equinox is a minimalistic crib that looks gorgeous. It is also GREENGUARD gold certified which we believe is a must for any toxic-free product. It can be transformed into a toddler and daybed with a separate conversion kit.

Some cribs are more traditional, such as the DaVinci Jayden 4 in 1. It is a stylish option that can be incorporated into larger nurseries. However, it takes up more floor space compared to smaller minimalist options. It has only three levels of mattress which is a fraction of the competition's number. It's not as sturdy as our other choices.

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

Adjustable Mattress Height

If your baby is sleeping in their crib, it is important that the mattress is at the right level. This will ensure that your child isn't able to climb out which could be hazardous or even fatal. A higher mattress also helps keep your child from suffocating or overheating.

A quality crib should have slats or railings that are adjustable to allow you to raise or lower the mattress as your child grows. The majority of cribs include a conversion kit that allows you can transform the crib into a toddler bed or daybed once your little one outgrows it. It's recommended for you to choose the crib that is tested and certified by a third-party institution. The Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association seal and GREENGUARD Gold Certification are two examples. These certifications guarantee your baby's crib is free of chemicals or finishes.

The Graco Sweet2Sleep Crib features an easy design and has no complicated parts. It is among the top cribs. The sides of the crib are shorter than many other models however one tester reported that her baby was comfortable in it and was still in good condition when she gave it to a friend after her second child was born.

Another option that is worth considering is the Stokke Sleepi Crib, which has a unique oval shape that gives it a modern look. It's a bit more expensive than other cribs, however it's durable and comes with numerous features to make up for the cost. It can, for instance, be transformed into a bassinet, or toddler bed. It also has wheels so it's easy to move from room to room. It has a canopy which can be used to create a space more like a womb for your baby. It adds a fashionable touch in any nursery.

The only downside to this crib is that it doesn't come with an additional mattress, which you'll have to purchase separately. It's a safe and comfortable crib that will grow with your child from newborn to toddler.

No dangling or chewable parts

The safest cribs are those that do not have chewable or dangling parts. Babies love to grasp objects, and if something is hanging from their crib or above them it could snag on the rails or become an entanglement hazard. If a parent decides to decorate their crib with decorative items or toys, they need to make sure that the items are securely attached and are not within Baby's reach.

We also look at how it is easy to build our top infant cribs. The crib should be easy enough to put together yourself without the need for special tools or spending a long amount of time. The majority of parents say it takes less than one hour to put together the modern crib, and the instructions are usually easy to follow.

It is essential to select the right crib that will last for many years. Select a crib that is able to be converted from a crib to a toddler's bed, and then to a full-size mattress.

Our favorite 4-in-1 convertible crib is the Ikea Nestig Cloud Crib that can be used to replace the bassinet in the early months, then convert into a toddler bed, daybed, or a full-size bed. It's designed for the long haul and comes in a range of colors which makes it easy to match your nursery design theme.

Another excellent choice is the Stork Craft Equinox 3-in-1 crib. This gorgeous, minimalist-style crib is low-profile so that small parents can reach their child to soothe them. It also has a stellar reputation for quality and comes in white, cherry, espresso, and natural pine colors.

This crib is Greenguard Gold Certified, which means it is made 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 cots and tots JPMA. The only thing missing is the toddler rail. It is available separately. This is a great option for those looking for a quality crib that is affordable and built to last for a long time.
