Safety

Choosing the best cot newborn crib newborn is essential to your baby's health and well-being. It is important to ensure that the crib conforms to current safety standards and is free from dangers that could cause harm to your baby as they sleep. It should be sturdy and well-constructed, with no loose parts that might catch on clothing or create the risk of choking. It is also crucial to follow the manufacturer's directions for assembly and use, and regularly inspect the crib for signs of wear or damage.

You should also be able easily reach and observe your baby's crib. If you aren't see, the slats need to be wider and not as close together.

The mattress support system is another aspect to take into consideration when selecting a crib. It is important to adjust the heights so that you can lower the mattress as your baby grows. This will reduce the chance of your child climbing out of the crib, which is a common occurrence as they learn to crawl.

Other safety features to consider include an upholstered sheet that fits the mattress with ease and solid and stable construction. Pick a crib with fixed sides instead of one with drop sides. Drop sides can be hazardous for your child. You should also share the same bedroom as your baby until they are old enough to be able to go off on their own.

Not least, make sure the crib is placed away from radiators and windows, and that any hanging objects such as curtains or blind cords are out of reach. It is also recommended to remove any items that might pose a choking hazard like blankets or pillows. Be careful when purchasing used cribs since they may not be in compliance with current safety standards, or have been removed from the market.

Design

It is important to keep in mind that cribs can look similar, but must adhere to strict safety standards. This is why the majority cribs we examined are of a similar design to ensure consistency of structural integrity. For instance, the majority of cribs have circular bars that do not have any gaps or rough areas that could entangle or squeeze the baby. We also evaluated each crib and rated it for its simplicity of use and assembly. We suggest selecting one with fewer components to avoid confusion.

The Evolur Sprout crib is among our favorites. It is stylish modern design and comes in a range of colors, including two-toned. Additionally, it features a mattress that is universal and is Greenguard Gold certified to have low levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can off-gas into the nursery.

Mattress

Babies are messy and a washable crib mattress is a must.

Choose a product that is easy to clean with mild cleaner or cloth. Also, choose a waterproof cover to prevent liquids from getting into the mattress.

A mattress that is firm is ideal for infants, since it will provide the most support to their growing spines. A firm sleeping surface helps reduce the risk of SIDS which is more likely to occur when an infant's head sinks into a soft mattress.

Examine the label of a firm mattress to ensure it meets Consumer Product Safety Commission standards. The CPSC requires that mattresses be tested for the ability cots to tots withstand fire and water as well as lead and other chemicals that could pose a risk for infants. You'll also find certifications such as Greenguard, GOTS and CertiPUR-US, which are a good indicator that the mattress has been tested for the presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which can harm infants' respiratory and nervous systems.

The weight of the mattress is another factor to take into consideration. If you're not able to lift heavy objects, or you don't wish to move an item that weighs a lot it is possible to choose an easier mattress. For instance the Newton Wovenaire is incredibly light at just 8 pounds, while the Naturepedic Organic Breathable Crib Mattress - Dual Firmness is 20 pounds, which makes it the heaviest in this review. It is also made from foam instead of woven-core inners. This makes it much easier to move around in comparison to a traditional coil bed.

Assembly

New parents will appreciate a crib that's easy to put together. You want to find a crib with firmly-secured hardware and with no sharp edges or rough patches that could irritate the skin of your baby. Also, stay clear of cribs with drop-sides or cutouts for the headboard and footboard -- these features aren't compatible with the current safety standards.
