How to Choose the best cot beds [visit the next page] for Your Baby

When you are expecting a child, it is important to choose a cot that will ensure safety and security for your baby. Choose a cot that has fixed sides instead of drop-sides. This will comply with UK safety standards.

Our top choice is this simple but elegant coffin from John Lewis' Anyday range. It comes with three mattress positions, teething bars and a storage drawer. It is also simple to assemble, with clear instructions.

Comfort

The best cot beds keep baby's warm and comfortable. Look for a soft, airy fabric, and ensure that the mattress is snug to prevent any gaps which could cause an suffocation threat. There are many types of mattresses available, including coils springs, foam and even natural materials for allergy sufferers. Do your research to find the best one for your child.

If you choose a convertible or standard cot, the most important thing to ensure satisfaction is a high-quality mattress that provides proper support and promotes a healthy posture. The same applies to the slats, which should be secured and not bent or sagging. The slats should also be securely fixed to the frame, to ensure that your child will not be caught when they move during sleep.

Ask your family and friends for recommendations or look at online reviews. Choose mattresses that are breathable, as they will aid in regulating your body temperature, and are less likely to hold bacteria.

In terms of style, there's a wide choice, from traditional sleigh styles with elaborate detailing to sleek, modern designs. Some are painted in bright primary colours to make your child feel cheerful and cheerful as they awake.

Most cots and tots come with an under-bed storage drawer, teething rails that prevent your child from chewing the sides of the cot and adjustable height bases to accommodate the growth of your baby cots online. You can also purchase a drop side for smaller infants or those with medical conditions that make it difficult for them to bend over.

For added peace of mind, search for a cot that meets the stringent UK safety standards and can easily convert into an infant bed when the time is appropriate. This information is available in the product description and key specifications.

Safety

When choosing a cot an environment that is safe for sleeping is a must. Make sure that the mattress is snugly fitted, with no gaps between it and the cot's bed's sides or ends (big gaps could trap your child's head or arms). Make sure it's solid and thin - more thick mattresses aren't recommended, as they may increase the risk of SIDS. There are many companies that offer a variety of mattresses, from simple foam to natural materials for allergy sufferers. Some even have anti-microbial treatment. If your mattress has an inclined side, make sure it is in the upward position and secured.

A drop side should only be allowed to drop only if an adult is present; to prevent accidental releases. If your Mini Cot Bed has a solid end be sure to avoid placing it against the wall because it will block airflow and could cause the death of a coffin. The latest research suggests that slatted ends could be safer since they allow for more airflow.

If your cot is fixed on one side, then you can choose it. It will be the safest option for your baby as they start to crawl and then pull themselves upwards. When your child is standing and climbing, it is a sign they're ready to move into a junior bed.

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

Whenever you place your child in their cot, ensure that there is no visible danger - it must be kept away from heaters and power points, windows, blind cords and curtains (these are a strangulation hazard). If you're purchasing second-hand or heirloom furniture, check for dangers to your child's health such as stickers and transfers that can be removed and create the risk of.

If you're unsure of what you should do to use your cot, consult other parents for help or take part in a local NCT New Baby class. If your cot comes with a manual, read it carefully before you begin using it, and be sure to follow the safety guidelines closely.

A cot isn't safe for babies to sleep in if it doesn't meet the strict UK safety standards outlined in BS EN 716 and BS 8509, which deals with the thickness of mattresses, the materials used and other essential elements of baby cot mattresses.

Stores

No matter if you're a first-time parent or a veteran, the amount of stuff that a baby requires is overwhelming. This is the reason it's important to think about storage options when selecting the cot bed. A number of cots have additional storage options such as drawers in the under-bed or a coordinating cot top changer (available separately). Some can be transformed to a toddler or a small single bed, increasing their usability for longer.

Some cots are able to be converted into day beds, as seen on the Cam Cam Copenhagen Harlequin Cot. This is an excellent option for those who like the flexibility of a design.
