Easy to clean When you're looking at travel cots or bedside cribs be sure to look for models that have a removable mattress cover which can be washed in the machine. This will keep it clean and free of spills, spills, and leaky diapers. You should also choose an item that can be easily disassembled to allow you to clean and disinfect all the nooks. This is vital, as it's the best way to ensure that all dirt and germs have been removed. Check that the sides of the crib are securely secured to ensure that your baby doesn't fall off or be trapped. It is also important to ensure that the crib is easy to clean and it is a good fit for your bed. This is especially important if you're using a bedside crib for co-sleeping. These cribs are designed to be connected securely to the parent's side, giving parents to have easy access to their infant throughout the night to feed and comfort them, while ensuring the safety that separate sleeping surfaces provide. When choosing a crib for your bedside, you should also consider whether it has additional features that could be beneficial to you. For instance, some cribs come with the ability to rock (useful for sleepers who are fussy) or tilt – but remember that you should only utilize this feature with care because it could be dangerous if your child gets out of the crib. You'll also want to ensure that your crib or travel cot has a sturdy and flat mattress that is able to fit snugly into the frame. This will decrease the risk of SIDS because your baby's head and feet won't get caught in gaps or folds in the bedding. It's a good idea purchase a brand new mattress for your crib or travel cot, rather than use one that was handed down or purchased second-hand. Mattresses that have been used are more susceptible to losing their shape with time which increases the risk of SIDS. All new cribs have to meet BS EN1130 for 2019. This is the most current standard, which introduces stricter requirements to ensure the safety of your sleep and provide effective solutions.

They can also be used as standalone cribs during the day. They usually have a side panel that can be moved down so you can be able to see and touch your baby. Some cribs let you keep the panel in place all night, which gives you the comfort and intimacy of co-sleeping with your newborn, but minimises the risks of bed-sharing. Some cribs will also convert into a travel cot or come with additional features such as tilting, rocking (use with caution, make sure to talk to your GP about this), or turning into an older baby cot or playpen.
