How to Choose the Best Cot Beds for Your Baby
If you're expecting a child it is essential to select the right cot that is secure and safe for your little one. Look for a cot that has fixed sides instead of drop-sides. This will comply with UK safety standards.
Our top choice is this simple but stylish cot from John Lewis' Anyday range. It comes with three mattress positions, teething bars and storage drawers. It is also simple to put together, and comes with clear instructions.
Comfort
The best cot mattress keeps infants comfortable and warm. Choose a breathable, soft fabric. Make sure that the mattress is fitted snugly to prevent any gaps that could pose the danger of being suffocated. There are a variety of mattresses available: foam, coils springs, and even natural materials for allergy sufferers. Do your research to determine the best one for your child.
Whether you opt for a convertible or standard cot, the key to comfort is a good-quality mattress that provides proper support and encourages healthy posture. The slats should also be securely attached and not sagging. The slats must also be securely attached to the frame so that your child does not be caught when they move during sleep.
Ask your family and friends for recommendations or browse online reviews. Look for ones that are breathable, as they'll help to regulate temperature and are less likely to be a home for bacteria.
There are a myriad of styles to choose from such as traditional sleighs, with ornate details and modern, sleek designs. Some are decorated with bright primary colors to make your child feel joyful and cheerful as they wake up.
You'll find most cots have an under-bed drawer for storage and teething rails to guard your child from chewing on the side of the cot and adjustable height bases to accommodate baby's growth. You can also purchase a drop side for smaller infants or those with health issues that make it difficult to bend over.
For added peace of mind, look for a cot that complies with the stringent UK safety standards and can easily convert into an infant bed when the time is appropriate. Find this information in the description or in the key specifications.
Safety
When choosing a cot, the safety of your child's sleep is a must. Make sure the mattress is snugly fitted, with no gaps between it and the cot/cot bed sides or ends (big gaps can restrict your child's head or arms). Make sure the mattress is not too firm and thin. Mattresses that are too thick can increase the risk of SIDS. There are many companies that offer a variety of mattresses, ranging from basic foam to natural materials suitable for allergy sufferers and some even contain anti-microbial treatments. If your cot features drop-sides, ensure that it is locked and in the up position.
Drop sides should only be permitted to fall when an adult is present in the room. This can prevent accidental release. If your coffin has a solid edge be sure to avoid placing it against the wall because it can block airflow and may contribute to coffin death. The latest research suggests that slatted ends may be safer because they allow more airflow.
If your crib has a fixed edge, opt for this as it is the most secure option when your baby starts to crawl and then pull themselves up. If your child is confidently climbing and standing, it's time to move to a junior bed.
Some cots feature an option where the base can be raised to three different levels, so that it will grow with your child - this is very useful and is a safety measure. Other cots come with footplates that are adjustable, which is great for toddlers who want to sit up in their bed.
When placing your child's cot, make sure there aren't any obvious dangers. It should be kept away from power and heater points. Also be sure to keep it away from windows, curtains, and blind cords. All of these could create strangulation risks. If you're buying second-hand or heirloom furniture be sure to look for any hazards to choking such as stickers and transfers that may be removed and pose danger.
If you're not sure how to use your cot safely, ask parents around or go to an local NCT New Baby course for support and advice. If your crib comes with a manual, make sure you read it before using it and adhere to the instructions.
Style
This gorgeous cot bed with its sleigh-style design will look fantastic in your nursery. The panel was impressed by the combination of natural and white wood and the clever features like under-bed storage drawers for all baby essentials, like bedding, nappy and a wide selection of baby clothes. It's also easy to assemble with clear instructions and separate packs of screws for each section. What's more, it can be converted into a toddler bed or desk when your child gets older (see the product's description for more details).
One of our most loved features is the teething rails which protect your little one from bumping their head on the side of the cot or any other protruding parts of the cot, such as a handle or a corner post, and which also help stop them chewing on the wood, preventing them from being in danger of being suffocated. It also has a drop-side to allow easier access to your newborn. We love that the cot can be transformed into a toddler bed, and that it's sturdy enough to last for up to four years. It also met strict UK safety standards. You can find these in the key specs below each product.
Cot beds are typically larger than cribs and can be transformed into toddler beds when your child is ready, allowing you to avoid purchasing a bed at an age when they're ready for the transition. They can be more expensive than cribs.
If your nursery is small, a crib might be the best choice for you since it is smaller and occupies less space. However, should your baby be expected to spend most of the time in their parents' room or you want a longer-lasting bed, opt for a cot.
A cot isn't safe for babies to sleep in if it does not meet the strict UK safety standards outlined in BS EN 716 and BS 8509, which deals with mattresses' thicknesses, materials, and other important elements of cot mattresses for baby. The slats shouldn't be too far apart to prevent your child from falling out.
Storage
No matter if you're a first-time parent or an experienced one, the amount of stuff a baby needs is staggering. This is the reason it's important to think about the storage options when you choose the right cot bed. Some cots come with additional storage options, including drawers underneath the bed or a coordinating top changer (available separately). Certain cheap cots can be transformed into an infant bed or a small single beds to expand their use.
Some cot beds can be converted into a daybed like this one on the Cam Cam Copenhagen Harlequin Cot. This is a great choice for those who prefer more flexible designs as the conversion process is fairly simple and requires just the removal of one side panel. It also lets parents save money on a separate bed.
A few cot beds feature a hanging rail which can be used to store muslins, dolls and other small objects. This makes everything tidy, neat and organized. It also looks fantastic. The ease of access to these items makes it much easier for parents to feed their baby.
Another feature worth looking out for is a teething rail that is available with cots and tots. This will stop your child from chewing on the wooden cot which can cause irritation. Some cots feature a more traditional design and come with a large storage drawer under the bed. It is perfect for toys, clothes blankets, and other baby necessities.
While this is a great option if you're running out of space, you should be aware that you'll require a separate extra for the drawer. You might need to purchase a separate mattress and bedding, as oval sheets and mattresses don't come with the cot sets.
