Safety

A bedside crib is a unique crib that seamlessly connects with the parents' bed to provide a convenient method for them to take care of their infant at night. This crib lets them reach their baby with ease so they can feed and comfort their child without having to leave bed, which is very beneficial for parents who suffer from sleep deprivation in the early years. It also aids in promoting the growth of the baby by providing a safe and comfortable sleeping environment.

A high-quality bedside crib will have a solid connection and an anti-slip design at the foot of the bed. This helps to reduce the risk of accidents that could harm your baby. They also have to meet safety standards, such as BS EN 1130:2019, which helps to ensure your baby is secure and safe when they sleep. It is also important to ensure that the mattress included in your crib is firm rather than soft, and also look for any gaps that could increase your child's risk of suffocation, or entrapment.

You should also be wary of using duvets, pillows or baby bumpers in your baby's crib unless they're made specifically to be used with a cot or crib, as they can pose a serious hazard and may not meet safety standards. You should also ensure that any toys your baby utilizes in the crib are securely attached and does not extend too far.

If you're unsure about a piece of equipment, ask other parents in a NCT group or at a baby cafe for suggestions, and make sure you search for a product that is brand new and meets current safety standards, not second-hand or used cribs. If you're going to buy a used crib, make sure you check it for damage and make sure all the components are in place prior to purchasing it.

Style

A bedside crib is a bassinet that is attached to the side of your bed.

These are also great for mums who have had c-sections but find it hard to get up in the middle of the night to take care of their infant.

There are a variety of styles to choose from, but you should look for the following qualities:

How easy it is to keep clean? Can it be cleaned by hand or is a machine washable mattress cover essential? How big is the bed and can you raise or lower it to fit? What's the weight and is it easy to move around your home, particularly in the event that you plan to use it in more than one room at one time?

She also liked the size, saying that it's not as big as a traditional crib but it is larger than standard Moses baskets. It's also a comfortable fit for her infant. It's also easy to put together and can be folded flat, making it easy to transport. Some moms complained that it was a little heavy, however, and this may be an issue for those who have mobility issues.

The Maxi-Cosi Lora is another option to think about. It won Gold in the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards for the Best Cot or Crib.

Budget

The best cribs for your bed are those that sit close to your bed to let you watch your baby, change nappys at night and feed your baby without having to get up from your bed.

The majority will have an upholstered bed, which is ideal because you don't want it too soft or lumpy.

You must also consider how easy it is to put together - some cribs are more simple than others, and the more complex models costing more. Be sure to consider whether the crib is suitable for your bed or not. Some cribs may only work with a specific kind of divan base, which could be a problem if you have a unique bed frame.
