One parent tester stated that she used hers for two babies, and then gave it to a different friend. This made it a wise purchase. Its streamlined design also makes it a perfect choice for small nursery spaces.

Bedding

There are many choices when it comes to bedding for your crib. It's not only about picking the right pattern that fits your personal style. It is also important to ensure that the sheet is tightly fitted and doesn't bunch up in areas where it could pose an choking risk to your child. It is important to choose a soft and durable material to withstand blowouts from diapers, spills and other messes for months without fading.

One of our top picks is this Avocado set It comes with two sheets that are made of 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton and MADE SAFE-certified, an independent third-party certification that guarantees the company's textiles meet rigorous standards for quality and safety. The sheets are pre-shrunk so that they won't shrink or stretch after washing. They also fit a standard crib bed (27 1 The size of the blanket is 4 inches wide and 51 5/8 inches long. They're also machine-washable to clean the inevitable mess your bundle of joy is sure to create.

Another great option for infants and toddlers is crib mattress pads which provides an additional layer of comfort while protecting the mattress from spills and stains.

Beware of anything that's too fluffy or has long ribbons, bows and other adornments that can detach and pose the risk of strangulation.

You should consider buying a convertible crib if you intend to keep your baby in the crib for a long time. These beds can be transformed into a toddler bed, and occasionally even a full-size daybed. Some cribs have the necessary conversion kits included, but others require an additional purchase.

This Dream On Me Ashton 5 in 1 sleigh crib is one of our top picks. It's constructed of solid wood and has one of the highest mattress heights (for parents worried about reaching an unattractive mattress). We love that it's also Greenguard Gold certified, meaning it complies with stringent environmental standards to reduce off-gassing.

Mattress

When it comes to crib mattresses, firmness and sizing are crucial. The AAP recommends using a mattress that is firm, is comfortable and does not leave an impression when you lay a sheet down on it. The mattress should be the right size for the crib and should remain in place, even when your child is out of it.

You'll also want to check if the mattress contains chemicals that may harm your child. Find a mattress that is free of volatile organic compound (VOCs), which emits an unpleasant chemical odor. A good indication is a CertiPUR US certificate that certifies that the foam used in mattresses is free of Ozone depleters, PBDEs, TDCPP and TCEP flame retardants mercury, lead, other heavy metals, formaldehyde Phthalates that are regulated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, and volatile organic compounds.

Other aspects to consider are the weight of the mattress and whether or not it is waterproof. It's likely that you'll be dealing with changes to sheets at night, so an easily wipeable or waterproof surface will help with cleaning. The Naturepedic Organic Cotton Classic 150 Seamless 2Stage is the most heavy product we've tested, weighing in at 20 lbs. This may be a deal-breaker for some parents.

Another aspect to be aware of is whether the mattress is dual-sided; some of these come with a firm infant side and the soft toddler side. Pediatricians suggest flipping the mattress of your child when they reach the peak of normal growth. This is usually around 12 months.

When testing crib mattresses we examined their weight and how they folded and Great Crib moved to dress the sides with sheets. We also put the weight of 8 pounds, slightly heavier than that of a newborn infant, on each mattress to observe how it reacts. The best ones did not sink, which means that they offer enough support to protect your child from falling out of mattress while sleeping or drowning. Some of the mattresses that we test had a removable cover that can be machine-washed and is waterproof. This makes cleaning and maintaining them easier.

Crib Rails

A crib can't be complete without the proper set of rails fixed. While some cribs for babies offer baby rails with the crib and others sell them on their own. If you choose to buy them separately, make sure they meet the safety standards. They should, for instance, be free of loose or missing screws, brackets, and other hardware. They should also be able support the weight of your child, but not be too fragile. They should also lock securely in place so that they cannot be removed from your child.

The crib rails need to not only be sturdy but also fit comfortably within the crib frame. This will prevent the mattress from becoming fragile and potentially hazardous for your child. Be sure to measure inside the crib frame when buying a crib rail. There are some slight differences in the crib sizes. The ideal space should not be more than three fingers wide.

It is also important to ensure that the crib rails don't have any decorative cutouts or other adornments. These can pose a suffocation risk. It is also recommended to avoid putting pillows blankets, blankets, quilts, and sheepskins on the crib, since they can contribute to an unhealthy carbon dioxide build-up and increase the risk of SIDS. Consider a crib cover and pad combination if you want a soft sleeping surface for your baby. These products consist of an upholstered mattress pad, an elongated waterproof lining as well as a fitted "skirt" that stretches around the mattress in the same way as a fitted sheet.

It is also important to make sure you have the correct crib rail guards. These are specifically designed to cushion your baby's head when it hits the crib railings while feeding or cradling him or her on the bed. They also help to prevent teeth marks and drool discoloration on the crib's fixed railings.

You'll have to purchase a toddler guardrail once your child has outgrown their crib. This will keep them safely in the crib until they are ready for a bigger bed. Sweetpea Baby offers a convertible crib toddler rail that will work with most standard cribs. It's easy to install and meets the CPSC safety standards.

Crib Hardware

Some aspects of crib design are only aesthetic or are subject to personal preference, however other aspects, such as the design of slats, or whether the crib converts to an infant bed--can have a major influence on the ease of use and how long the crib will last. The best cots cribs feature solid wood construction, meet numerous safety standards, and are easily configurable to a variety of mattress heights. Some have special features that make them more efficient, such as the Quick Zip Crib Sheet, which allows you to swap the sheets without removing the entire mattress from the crib.

Avoid cribs that have ornamental cutouts or other designs because they could get caught on clothing or pose a risk of choking for infants. Check the crib hardware for loose bolts, as well as other items that can catch on objects or clothing.

The best crib sets come with easy-to-follow directions and all the necessary parts, such as hardware. Most modern cribs take a half hour or less to put together, and many include all the tools you'll need.

You may also want to consider a convertible crib which can transform into a daybed for toddlers, a toddler bed or a full-size bed. This can be a smart buy for families that plan to keep the crib for many years or who have small space in their homes. It is important to remember that some crib conversion kits require a second purchase to fully complete the process.

Crib hardware can be a bit difficult to grasp, but it's essential for security and stability. Most cribs come with a system consisting of rectangular blocks wedges (also called "shims") and large chocks known as step chocks. They are all designed to tighten the contact points between the crib and the surface that supports it.

Some shims and chocks may be made of soft woods, which break slowly. This could trigger an audible warning before they fail. However, woods that are more rigid might break more quickly and with greater force. Plastic shims and chocks are also available, and can be easier to install because they don't require drilling or screwing into the surface.
