Safety
A crib that is bedside is a new crib that connects seamlessly with the parents' beds to provide them a convenient way to care for their baby at night.

This is especially beneficial for new mothers who may be suffering from sleep deprivation in the early months. It promotes healthy growth in the infant by providing a safe and comfortable environment.
A top-quality bedside crib will have a strong connection and an anti-slip design on the foot of the bed. This helps reduce the chance of accidents that could hurt your baby. The cribs also have safety standards such as BS EN 1130, which ensures that your baby is safe and secure while they sleep. Also, make sure the mattress that comes with your crib is firm rather than soft, and also look for any gaps which could increase your baby's risk of suffocation or entrapment.
Avoid using duvets, pillows or baby bumpers for your baby's crib except if they were specifically made to be used in conjunction with a crib.

It is also important to ensure that any toys or objects that your child plays with in the crib are securely secured to the crib and do not protrude too far of the crib's edges.
Ask other parents for advice if you are unsure about certain pieces of equipment. Also, look for items that are brand modern and meet current safety standards rather than ones that were passed down or used. Check the crib for damage before buying it.
