Some are shaped as a mini-crib or Moses basket while others have sides which can be placed on parent's bed.

Some cribs come with a drop-side that can be lowered to make it easier for you to do this, while others have a height adjustment to ensure they can be placed in your bed at home and when you go away. While it used to be advised that babies sleep in a separate bedroom, there is now a increasing preference for parents to co-sleep with their infants.
