Indisputable Proof You Need Bedside Crib And Travel Cot
Bedside Crib and Travel Cot
Bedside cribs look similar to an infant bassinet, and are attached to the side of a bed. Some have a side that can be raised for easy access, while others come with an incline that is ideal for babies who have reflux.
MFM tester Georgina found this crib to be easy to put together and the instructions were simple, resulting in a quick and easy build. It also folds down to the size of a small bag and comes with a handy bag for travel.
Easy to put together
They are small and easy to set up, so they can be placed near your bed. They are also lighter, which makes them more transportable. Georgina who was one of the MFM’s home testers said that the Maxi-Cosi Lora was “super easy to assemble, with clear instructions and easy zips.” The crib can be used as a travel crib, and it comes with a handy bag. It comes with multiple mesh windows that allow for ventilation, and the adjustable height makes it can be adapted to any mattress.
Some cribs for bedside use a side panel which can be lowered to allow you to easily reach your baby without getting out of the bed. This is a great option for breastfeeding mothers or parents who want to be with their baby throughout the night but do not want to risk co-sleeping (which is linked to an increased risk of SIDS).
Many models come with built-in functions that allow you to rock your baby. This can be a very relaxing experience for your baby and aid them to sleep. Some cribs have a reclining position, which is useful for babies suffering from reflux or colic. They should only be used under supervision, and a health professional or a GP is recommended prior to attempting this position.
bedside crib that turns into cot for bed come with a canopy to protect your baby from light or sound, which can be beneficial in keeping them quiet. Some cribs come with a storage area underneath that is perfect for storing extra blankets, diapers and other clothes for your child.
Some cribs that are bedside can be transformed into standalone cots or toddler beds, and this is often an important selling factor for families. MFM’s 2021 Mother and Baby Awards winner, the Joie Roomie Go for instance, comes with removable side panels, conversion kits and a tummy tilt, making it a versatile travel bed. It has five height adjustments that can be matched to your bed. The MFM home testers loved it for being comfortable, easy to assemble and compact. The Graco Play Yard is also known as a Play and Pack Play is a different popular choice. It was a finalist for the 2022 Mother&Baby Award.
Cozy and comfortable
A bedside crib allows you to monitor your little one from the comfortable bed. It’s the ideal solution for a mother recovering from a c-section because you can easily pull baby out towards you for nappy or night feeds changes without needing to get out of bed. The most comfortable cribs come with mesh sides that which you can see your baby through.
Some cribs let you lower the barrier completely. This lets you co-sleep without the risks. (Make sure that the crib you choose is compliant with the current safety requirements). Some allow you to keep the barrier lowered but then raise it after you’ve lifted baby out, which is ideal for parents who have an apprehension of their child falling off the side of their mattress.
The Luah – which won the 2021 Mother&Baby Award for Best Crib, Cot or Moses Basket – is designed to be attached to bedsteads and divan beds, but does require some longer straps than other models (check the specifications to be certain your bed is able to accommodate). It’s a spacious model with an opening side panel as well as a patented perforated base that creates an air cushion to increase airflow. Plus, there’s an integrated setting for reflux and the 360 swivel, so you can rotate the crib to accommodate the position of your baby.
If you’re seeking something smaller Tutti Bambini CoZee comes with oak legs that come with a range of fabrics that complement your decor. It is also very easy to put together. Georgina who took part in the MFM test was able to put it together quickly, without requiring any instructions. It’s also a great travel cot. It folds flat and easily fits into bags.
The Next2me Magic, which was shortlisted for the Best Cot, Crib or Moses Basket at the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards, is also slightly larger than the average, however it is still compact and easy to fit onto your bed. Georgina also found it easy to set up, though she felt the instructions could have been clearer regarding the zips.
Easy to clean
Look for cribs that come with removable mattress covers that can be washed in the machine when looking at bedside cribs or travel cots. This will keep it clean and free of dribbles, leaky diapers, and spit-up. It’s also a good idea to select a model that can be disassembled and dismantled in parts, so you can get into all the corners and crevices to conduct a thorough cleaning and sanitising session.
This is vital, as it’s the best way to be sure that all dirt and germs have been cleared away. Check that the sides of the crib are secure to ensure that your baby won’t fall down or get trapped.
In addition to being easy to clean, you’ll also want a bedside crib that is a comfortable place for your baby and will fit comfortably into your bed. This is especially important if you’re using a bedside crib to facilitate co-sleeping. These cribs are designed to be connected securely to the parent’s side, giving parents to easily access to their infant during the night to feed and comfort their baby while still ensuring the safety that separate sleeping surfaces offer.
When you are choosing a crib to put at your bed it is important to consider whether it has additional features that could be beneficial to you. Some cribs tilt or rock, which is great for babies who are fussy.
You’ll want to make sure that your crib or travel bed has a flat, firm mattress that is snugly fitted into the frame. This will lower the risk of SIDS by making sure that your baby’s head and feet aren’t slipping into gaps or folds in the bedding.
It’s also recommended to purchase a new mattress for your travel cot or crib instead of using one that has been passed down from another person or bought second-hand. Used mattresses are more prone to lose their shape with time, increasing the risk for SIDS. All cribs that are new should be compliant with BS EN 1130:2019, the most recent standard that introduces more stringent requirements for safe and effective sleep solutions.
Multi-faceted
The bedside crib, also known as a co-sleeping bed as it’s sometimes referred to, attaches to the bed to allow you to access your baby easily at night without having to leave your sleeping area. They can also be used as a separate crib during the daytime. Most will feature a side panel which can be adjusted to lower, so that you can see and touch your baby. Some cribs let you keep the panel in place throughout the night, giving you the intimacy and convenience of sleeping in a bed with your newborn and reduces the dangers of bed-sharing. Some cribs will also convert into a travel cot or include additional features such as rocking, tilting (use with caution, be sure to speak to your GP regarding this) or even turning into an older baby cot or playpen.
The SnuzPod 4 crib is popular for many reasons, and not only because of its sleek design in Scandi. This model comes with six height adjustments, as well as a useful storage shelf. It’s also a bit heavier and bulkier than many of our cribs that are more suitable for travel and comes in an attractive bag that keeps it dust-free and clean when stored.
It’s easy to assemble with clear instructions and a handy toolkit to help you. It is also easy to clean with a machine washable mattress cover and breathable fabric. It comes with a few extras in comparison to other cribs, including an anti-reflux angle as well as a rocking feature and an storage compartment.
Jasmin says that this crib is fantastic because it’s “easy to reach the baby during the night to provide a relaxed feeding and is larger than the majority of Moses Baskets, which means it will last for a longer time before my son grows out”. She also appreciates how easy it is to clean and how it feels solid and well-made. It’s even designed to fit on a divan bed which makes it an ideal option for those with limited space. Plus, it has an easy-to-carry bag that you can take with you when you’re traveling. A perfect all-rounder.
