The Best Bedside Cots

A bedside crib is a bassinet-style cot that attaches to your own bed and allows your babies to sleep right next to you. This is a great solution for parents who want their child to be near for peaceful feedings during the first few months of his life.

The HALO bassiNest Essentia is the winner of our best bedside cots test. It features a swiveling sleep surface and sidewalls that can be easily lowered. This allows you to reach over and soothe them.

Safety

A bedside baby bed cot is a great solution for new parents who want to keep their child close to them without sacrificing security. The crib is attached to the side of your mattress. It is movable so that you can reach out to your baby. You can use the crib as a night time feeding station or to help soothe your baby to sleep. This is a fantastic option particularly for mothers who have had C-sections. Bedside cots come in a variety of styles and sizes, and some come with storage. If you're looking for a bedside cot be sure to check the safety features to make sure it is safe for your child.

The Boori Oasis Oval Cot has elegant design and is easy to put together. Its oval-shaped design is perfect for babies who roll in their sleep. They won't end up in a corner like they would with a rectangular cot. The cot is also easy to fit into doors with standard frames which is a major advantage for parents who are stretched out by their space.

La Redoute Willox adjustable Cot Bed is another good alternative. This cot is an excellent all-rounder with lots of features to simplify parenting and have an attractive design. Its adjustable sides allow it to grow with your child, and then convert into an infant's bed when the time arrives. It's also light, so it's easy to move around the house.

A quality crib for your bed should have a high mesh side to stop your baby from falling out. It should also be fitted securely to your bed, with no gaps or areas that are loose. If you're unsure about fitting a rocking bedside crib cot yourself you can ask a professional to complete the task for you.

Co-sleeping is not advised until your baby is at least six months of age. Official advice from The Lullaby Trust and the NHS is that newborns should not be sleeping in your bed because of the risk of overheating and suffocation. If you must co-sleep with your child, a crib at the bedside is the best option.

Size

A bedside cot is a bassinet-style cot that fixes to the side of your bed. It is a side that can be adjusted to allow you to reach your baby without needing to leave the bed. Celebrity moms like Stacey Solomon Binky Felstead, and Lucy Mecklenburgh are awestruck by these. They are great for those who have limited mobility after a C-section.

Our top choice, the Maxi-Cosi Lora, comes with an opening that lets you view your child from below the bed. It can also be adjusted to the height of your mattress - though some mothers complained that it was difficult to move up and down. It's also among the lightest options we've seen and it folds down to the size of a suitcase which makes it perfect for travelling with your child.

Another option that is great is the Slumber Carbon 3-in-1, which converts into an a portable cot, bassinet and playpen. It also was awarded our 2021 Mother&Baby Awards gold award in the Best Cot, Crib or Moses Basket category. It has a handy storage shelf underneath and is light enough to carry into and out of the car. Some mothers, however, were concerned that it was too long and wide to fit in tight spaces, particularly when it is used as a sleeper by the bed.

Design

The best cribs for beds are sleek, stylish and contemporary. Some cribs come with unique designs, such as an open-air flap on the sides that allow you to observe your baby without disturbing him. Other features like adjustable heights are helpful for those who have difficulties getting up. Some sleepers can also be used as a bassinet, cot, or for babies with reflux. There are also plenty of options if you're looking for something more traditional.

The CoZee Air by Tutti Bambini won bronze at the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards, in the Best Cot or Moses Basket category. Next2me Magic was also shortlisted. Both are adjustable in height and can be used as a travel cot when away from home. They're also super lightweight and easy to move from room to room.

Some moms prefer the Lua bedside crib with wheels sleeper that includes a changing mat, storage area and a collapsible baby bassinet that can be transformed into an e-couch that can be carried around. It also comes with a storage bag. Jasmine says it's the ideal size for babies and is more substantial than Moses baskets which may feel flimsy or thin.

Another option that is great is another option is the iCandy Cocoon, which can be used as an Moses basket, cot or travel cot. It features an adjustable changing table that pops up, a shelf for books and toys, and an adjustable mesh side that allows you to view your baby. It's not the lightest one, but it's simple to move and looks sleek in any bedroom.

Cost

Cost will be an important aspect when searching for a crib bassinet, or small bedside cot sleeper. Certain of the most popular models can be quite expensive. However there are a lot of cheaper alternatives. There are a variety of colors and styles to match your nursery decor.

The best bedside cots have adjustable sides that can be adjusted to match the height of your bed. Some have an inclined position that is perfect for babies suffering from reflux. Some models come with a travel bag and can be folded up when not in use. This is perfect for mothers who are constantly on the go or have guests to entertain.

Bedside cots tend to be a little bigger than Moses baskets, but smaller than cribs. They can be moved from one room to another, while others have a side which can be lowered so that you can lift your baby towards you to feed them or comfort them. Some also have built-in rockers so you can soothe your baby to sleep.

The Clair de Lune is a mid-priced option that was shortlisted in the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards Best Cot, Crib or Moses Basket category. The design is sleek and elegant however, it's a bit larger than other options, which means it might not be the best fit for tight spaces. It's also quite heavy at over 10kg, and will require some maneuvering to get it into the right position. Emily from Clair de Lune also notes that it's not as easy to get into and out of as some other beds for sleepers, as the sides don't flex much and you have to bend over to pick up your baby.
