The Consumer Product Safety Commission's (CPSC) website is the best place to start. It will let you know whether a crib that is portable has ever been recall. You should also select a mattress that is the right size for your baby's crib so that it doesn't fall into the gaps between the crib's sides or cause suffocation hazards.

Also, do not put pillows, blankets toys, stuffed animals or other items in the crib. These objects can strangle or suffocate your baby. They must be removed at the time they are able to stand up on their own or before the age of five months. It's also important to check regularly for broken or loose hardware and screws, especially when traveling with your infant. Remove all plastic from the crib as well.
