Safety

When selecting a cot, a safe sleeping environment is a must. Make sure the mattress is snug and has no gap between it and the cot/cot bed sides or ends (big gaps could keep your child's head from being caught in the arms). Verify that the mattress is firm and thin. Mattresses that are thick could increase the risk of SIDS. Many companies sell mattresses in a variety of materials, from foam to natural materials that are good for those suffering from allergies. Some even have an anti-microbial treatment. If your cot has drop sides, make sure it is in the up position and locked securely.

A drop side should be allowed to drop when an adult is present - to prevent accidental releases. If your coffin has a solid bottom, avoid placing it against the wall since it can block airflow and may contribute to coffin death. Recent research suggests that slatted ends could be safer because they allow more airflow.
