Comfort

The best cot beds keep baby's warm and comfortable. Choose a soft, airy fabric, and ensure that the mattress is fitted snugly to avoid any gaps, which could create the risk of suffocation. There are a range of mattresses available on the market - foam, coil springs and natural materials for allergy sufferers. So do your research before deciding on the one that is suitable for your baby's needs.

Whether you opt for an ordinary or convertible cot, the key to comfort is a good-quality mattress that provides proper support and promotes a healthy posture. This is also true for the slats. They should be firmly attached and not bent or sagging. The slats must also be securely fixed to the frame, so your child doesn't get caught in them when moving during sleep.

Ask your family and friends for recommendations or browse online reviews. Choose a mattress that is breathable, as they'll help to regulate temperature and are less likely to harbor bacteria.

In terms of style there's a variety of styles of styles, from traditional sleigh designs with elaborate details to sleek, contemporary designs. Some are decorated with bright primary colors to make your child feel joyful and cheerful as they awake.

Most cots come with a drawer for storage underneath and teething rails that stop your child from chewing on the sides of the cot, and height bases that are adjustable to accommodate the growth of your baby. You can also purchase an extra drop-side for babies that aren't big or suffer from medical conditions that make it hard to bend over.

For added peace of mind, search for a cot that meets the stringent UK safety standards and will easily transform into a toddler bed when the time is appropriate. Find this information in the description or key specs.

Safety

A secure sleeping space is an essential factor when selecting a bed. Make sure that the mattress fits snugly, with no gap between it and the cot's beds edges or sides (big gaps could keep your child's head from being caught in the arms). Check that the mattress is firm and thin. Mattresses that are too thick could increase the risk of SIDS. There are many companies that offer a variety of mattresses, ranging from basic foam to natural materials for allergy sufferers. Some contain anti-microbial treatments. If your cot has drop-sides, make sure it is secured and in the upward position.

Drop sides should only be allowed down only when an adult is in the room. This can prevent accidental release. Do not place your cot against a wall if it has an end that is solid. This could limit airflow, which could lead to coffin death. The latest research suggests that slatted edges could be safer since they allow more airflow.

If your crib has a fixed edge, opt for this as it will be safest when your child begins to crawl and then pull themselves up. If your child is climbing with confidence and standing, it's time to upgrade to a junior bed.

Some cots come with an option that allows the base to be raised up to three levels. This is a wonderful security measure that allows the cot of your child to grow with them. Some cots come with adjustable footplates that are perfect for toddlers who want to stand up.

When you place your child's cot ensure there are no visible hazards. It should be put away from heaters and power points. Also make sure it is away from windows, curtains and blind cords. All of these could pose a strangulation risk. If you're purchasing second-hand or heirloom furniture be sure to look for any hazards to choking such as stickers and transfer tapes that could be removed and create a risk.

If you're not sure what you should do to use your cot, consult other parents for advice or take part in an local NCT New Baby class. If your cot comes with a manual be sure to read it before using it and follow the instructions.

Style

Cot beds are generally bigger than cribs and can be transformed into toddler beds when your child is ready and you can avoid purchasing a bed until they're ready for the transition. However, they can be more expensive than the standard crib.

If your nursery isn't big enough, you might think about the possibility of a crib. It is smaller and takes less space. However should you be planning to spend a significant portion of your baby's time in your room or if you require a bed that will last longer, you should opt for a crib.

A crib isn't safe for babies to sleep in if it does not meet the strict UK safety standards set out in BS EN 716 and BS 8509, which covers the thickness of mattresses, the materials used and other essential elements of baby cot mattresses. The slats should not be too far apart to stop your baby from falling off.

Storage

Whether you're a first-time parent or a veteran the amount of things the baby will require is immense. It's crucial to think about storage when choosing a cot-bed. Some cots have additional storage options, such as drawers under the bed or a coordinating top changer (available separately). Some are even able to be converted into a toddler or small single bed, which can extend their use for a longer time.

Some cot beds can be converted into a daybed like this one on the Cam Cam Copenhagen Harlequin Cot. This is an excellent option for those who like an edgier design. The conversion is simple and only requires the removal of ONE side panel. It also lets parents save money on a separate bed.

A teething rail is a important feature that's included in some cots to tots. This will help keep your baby from chewing on the wood which can cause irritation. Some cots feature a more traditional design and have a huge storage drawer beneath the bed, which is perfect for toys, clothes blankets, and other baby essentials.

This is a great choice for those who have limited space, but you will have to purchase a drawer separately. You may also need to purchase a different mattress and bedding since sheets and mattresses that are oval are not typically included with the cot itself.
