Choosing the Best Crib A crib will be a major fixture in your nursery for many years and it's essential to choose a crib you enjoy admiring. Avoid cribs with cutouts or drop-sides that your child could fall into, and opt for a design that can be easily converted to a toddler bed, or daybed. Safety As parents, we want to give our babies the best start in life, and that begins with a safe crib. You shouldn't use cribs that have lots of missing or loose pieces, nor do you want one that isn't in line with the current safety standards. When purchasing a crib make sure it has the CPSC, ASTM or JPMA certification. The slats that comprise a crib should be tightly spaced so that children aren't falling or catching their heads in them and also they shouldn't contain any cut-outs for decorative purposes or other decorations that could create a risk. A mattress support system is essential to ensure the safety of your crib and should be able to adjust to different sizes to accommodate your child as they grow. Avoid hanging objects such as blind strings or curtains, as they can strangle your child. It's a good idea to inspect your crib on a regular basis for loose or missing objects, and replace any that have become dislodged in the course of time. Some cribs have a side panel that can be lowered. However it won't stay down for very long. These are great for parents who do not want to share with their children. Just make sure you keep your crib away from radiators and windows. If you're looking for a crib that is green, you should consider one made from wood from sustainable forests. You should also consider a crib that has been Greenguard Gold Certified. This means it has passed the tests to ensure low chemical emissions. If you're looking for something even superior, select a crib made of sustainable New Zealand pine that is free of BPA chemical compounds, BPA-based chemicals phthalates and other chemicals. Style If you're planning to work with a minimal or classic design, an attractive crib is a must. The SnuzPod4 can be used in small spaces because it is slim and sleek. It is also GREENGUARD Certified and has an adjustable lower height mattress. Maria Martin, Mother & Baby's Editor, said that the crib was "up there with the best-looking cribs we've ever seen, even in a sea grey!" The classic high-back crib for babies is made from solid New Zealand Pinewood and is available in a variety modern colors that match any style. It's heavier than other cribs that we've tried, but it's sturdy enough to last through toddlerhood and beyond. Its longer sides make it less aesthetically-pleasing than some other cribs, and you won't have a view of your little one from all four sides. It also takes more space in the nursery as compared to some of our other top picks. While a good option for smaller spaces, its unique design may be difficult to find sheets and other bedding for. It's also more bulkier than the other options and will need to be dismantled to fit through doorways that are standard when moving it from room to room. Standard cribs are usually constructed of wood like oak or maple. They can also be made of cherry, mahogany, birch, or cherry. They are more durable than other materials, and they resist nicks and dings much better than soft pine. But be top rated cots that some manufacturers use pine instead of hardwoods that are more durable since it's less expensive. This could make the crib more vulnerable to scratches and dent, which may require more frequent cleaning. Another benefit of the standard crib is that it typically comes with a toddler rail which can ensure your child's safety from climbing and falling out. Be aware, however, that many cribs designed for toddlers will require the purchase of an additional toddler bed rail. Convertibility When it comes to selecting a crib, there are a lot of factors to consider. Consider the size, style, slats, and whether it is convertible. It's important to find a crib that you love because it will be with your child for a long period of time. You should also pick the crib that is compatible with the style of your home, whether it's modern or traditional. A convertible crib can grow with your child, eventually becoming a toddler bed, then an adult size bed. This will save money in the long run because you don't need to purchase a separate bed for your child. There are a variety of convertible cribs on the market however, some stand out better than others. The Graco Benton 5-in-1 convertible crib is a good example. It is GREENGUARD gold certified, which means it meets or exceeds government safety standards in construction and finish. Additionally, it comes with three height settings that can be adjusted and a low profile that makes it easy to move your baby in and out of the crib. It's easy to put together this crib in less than 15 minutes to assemble using the use of a cordless drill/driver. Another option that is worth considering is an alternative to the DaVinci Jayden 4-in-1 convertible crib. This crib is GREENGUARD Certified Gold and a great buy. It's a classic style and can be converted to a toddler bed, daybed or a full-size bed by the purchase of separate conversion kits. It is also easy to assemble and has a low profile that makes it easy to reach into and out for small parents. The last crib on our list is the Oeuf Brooklyn convertible crib. This crib is a great option for minimalists looking to keep their nursery design simple and clean. This stylish crib can be transformed into a toddler or full-size bed by purchasing an optional rail and kit. This crib is made in Italy and uses environmentally conscious production methods. It's GREENGUARD Gold certified and specifically designed to work alongside the brand's non-toxic mattresses. Budget A quality crib will have a sturdy structure and easy assembly instructions that result in an easy and painless installation. And a design that is compatible with your nursery decor is also crucial. There are a variety of models of cribs that can be purchased at different costs. The Stokke Sleepi Bed, for instance, is among the most versatile options on the market. It can be used as a bassinet or crib or as a toddler bed. It can also gently rock your baby to slumber or create a gentle slope for reflux babies. The canopy and drape rods provide the baby with a cozy, womb-like atmosphere. It could also serve as a portable play area, giving your child the security and comfort to nap on the go. The Oeuf Sparrow crib is another option that doesn't sacrifice design. It combines a modern design with eco-friendly materials. The solid birch and Baltic birch wood plywood crib is manufactured sustainably in Europe and is able to be passed on to children. It meets all CPSC standards and has no drop-sides, cutouts for decorative purposes or sharp edges that could snag clothing. It does not have rough or sharp edges, and can easily be dressed by sheets. Some parents might prefer a minimal crib to complement their modern or contemporary home, while others may prefer a more stately design that is suited to the room's decor. If your preference falls in the latter category, consider the Babyletto Hudson 3-in-1 crib. This stylish model can be converted from a bassinet into the size of a mini-crib, and then into a full-size crib without the need for bars or mattresses. If you are a parent who isn't a fan of the fussiness of a crib, pick one that is simpler and cleaner looking. The Union 3-in-1 crib and the Babyletto Hudson both come with all the parts you need for your baby to develop into an adult, but they have a more traditional style than other models like the Storkcraft Equinox 3-in-1 or Dream on Me Ashton 5-in-1.
