How to Choose the best cot bed Cot Beds for Your Baby

If you are expecting a child, it is important to select a cot which will ensure safety and security for your baby. Look for a cot that has fixed sides instead of drop-sides. This will meet UK safety standards.

Our top choice is this simple but elegant cot from John Lewis' Anyday range. It comes with three mattress height positions, teething rails as well as a storage drawer. It's also easy to set up with clear instructions.

Comfort

The best cot beds keep baby's warm and comfortable. Find a comfortable, soft fabric. Make sure that the mattress is fitted snugly to prevent any gaps that could cause the risk of suffocation. There are a range of mattresses on the market including coil springs, foam and other natural materials suitable for allergy sufferers - so do your research and choose the best one for your baby's needs.

No matter if you select a convertible or standard cot, the primary factor to comfort is a good-quality mattress that provides proper support and promotes a healthy posture. The same applies to the slats, which should be secured and not sagging or bent. The slats should also be firmly attached to the frame so that your child does not get caught when they move during sleep.

Ask your family and friends for recommendations or browse online reviews. Choose breathable mattresses, as they will help regulate your body temperature and are less likely to hold bacteria.

There are a variety of styles to pick from that include traditional sleighs with ornate details and modern, sleek designs. Some are painted in bright primary colours to make your child feel happy and cheerful as they wake up.

Most cots come with a drawer for storage underneath and teething rails that stop your child from chewing on the sides of the cot and height bases that can be adjusted to accommodate the growth of your baby. You can also purchase drop sides for small babies or those who have medical conditions that make it difficult to bend over.

To ensure your peace of mind, search for a cot that is compliant with the stringent UK safety standards and will easily transform into a toddler bed when the time is appropriate. This information is available in the product description and the key specifications.

Safety

When choosing a cot an environment that is safe for sleeping is a must. The mattress should be snugly fitted and there shouldn't be gaps between the mattress and the ends or sides of the cot or cot-bed (large gaps can restrict the child's arms or head). Check that the mattress is firm and thin. Mattresses that are too thick can increase the risk of SIDS. Many companies sell mattresses in various materials, from foam to natural materials that are great for allergy sufferers. Some have anti-microbial treatment. If your cot features drop-sides, ensure that it is locked and in the upward position.

Drop sides should only be permitted down when an adult is in the room. This prevents accidental releases. If your coffin has a solid edge, avoid placing it against the wall since it will block airflow and could cause the death of a coffin. Recent research suggests that slatted ends may be safer since they allow more airflow.

If your cot has a fixed side choose this option as it will be safest when your child starts to crawl and then pull themselves up. When your child is confidently climbing and standing, it's the time to upgrade to a junior bed.

Some cots feature features that allow the base can be raised to three different heights in order to increase with your child's growth This is extremely practical and a great safety measure. Other cots come with footplates that can be adjusted, which are great for toddlers who want to sit up in their bed.

Whenever you place your child in their cot, ensure whether there is no visible danger - it must be away from heat sources, power points, windows, curtains and blind cords (these can be strangulation hazards). If you're buying furniture from a secondhand store or an heirloom piece, check for hazards to choking such as stickers and transfers that can be removed and create the risk of.

If you are unsure what you should do to use your cot, ask other parents for help or go to an local NCT New Baby class. If your cot comes with a guide, make sure you go through it before using it and follow the instructions.

Style

This stunning cot bed with its sleigh design will look stunning in your nursery.

It's also simple to put together with clear instructions and separate sets of screws for each section. It could also be transformed into a toddler desk and bed as your child grows older (see the product description for more information).

The rails for teething are among our top features. They stop your Baby beds from hitting their head against the crib's side or any protruding portion of the crib, such as the corner post or handle. They also prevent children from chewing on the wood, and prevent them from getting suffocated. There's also a drop-side for easier access to your infant. We appreciate that the cot could be transformed into a toddler bed and that it's built to last for four years. It also met the strict UK safety standards, which are listed in the main specifications beneath each product.

Cot beds are usually larger than cribs and can be turned into toddler beds when your child is ready which means you don't have to worry about purchasing a bed when they're ready for the transition. However, they can be pricier upfront than the standard crib.

If your nursery is very small, a crib may be the best crib newborn option for you since it is smaller and takes up less space. However, if your baby is likely to spend a lot of time in their parents' rooms or you'd like a more long-lasting bed, you should consider a crib.

If the cot you are using does not meet the UK safety standards outlined by BS EN 716 or BS 8509 (which cover mattress thicknesses, materials, and other essential elements in baby mattress cots) it is not safe for babies to sleep. The slats shouldn't be too close together, to ensure that your child doesn't get tossed out.

Stores

The amount of baby stuff you need is overwhelming, whether you're a new parent or a seasoned one. This is the reason it's important to consider the storage options when you choose the right cot bed. Certain cots offer additional storage options, including drawers underneath the bed or a coordinating top changer (available separately). Some cots are able to be converted into toddler beds or a smaller single bed to increase their use.

Some cots are able to be converted into day beds, as shown here on the Cam Cam Copenhagen Harlequin Cot. This is an ideal option for those who prefer an unstructured design since the conversion process is simple and involves the removal of a side panel. It also lets parents save money on a bed purchase.

Some cot beds have hanging rails that can be used to hang muslins, dummies and other small items. This allows you to keep everything organised, neat and tidy and looks fantastic. These items are easily accessible to parents and make it easier for parents to feed their child.

Another desirable feature to look for is a toothing rail which is included with cots. This will stop your child from chewing on the wooden cot which can cause irritation. Some cots are designed with a more traditional style and include a large under-bed storage drawer which is perfect to store blankets, toys clothes, and other baby necessities.

This is a great solution if space is an issue, but you will have to purchase a drawer separately. It is also possible to purchase a different mattress and bedding, as oval mattresses and sheets aren't typically included in the cot.
