Safety

A bedside cosleeper crib crib is a unique crib that connects seamlessly with the parents' beds to provide them a convenient way to take care of their baby during the night. The crib lets parents reach their baby with ease so they can feed or comfort them without having to leave the bed. This is helpful for new parents suffering from sleep apnea during those early months. It also aids in promoting the growth of the baby by providing a secure and comfortable environment for sleeping.

A top-quality bedside crib will have a solid connection and an anti-slip design at the bottom of the bed. This helps to reduce the chance of accidents that could hurt your baby. They also meet safety standards, such as BS EN 1130:2019, which will ensure your baby is safe and secure while they're asleep. Check that the mattress you have in your crib is firm and not soft. Also, check for any gaps or holes that could increase the danger of suffocation.

It is also recommended to avoid using duvets, pillows or baby bumpers in your child's crib unless they are designed specifically for use with a crib or cot as they could pose a serious hazard and may not be safe. It is also important to ensure that any toy your baby plays with in the crib is securely attached and does not extend too far.

Ask other parents for advice in case you are uncertain about certain pieces of equipment. Also, search for products that are new and have met the current safety standards instead of those that were passed down or second-hand. Examine the crib for any damage prior to purchasing it.

Another alternative is to purchase the bassinet, which is similar to a cot, but generally, it is attached to your bed and does not have legs. They are great for newborns and are ideal when you are recovering from an o-section. They keep your baby close to you throughout the day.

Size

Sweet2Sleep's crib for bed allows you to keep your baby close at night. This crib is a clever design with many features that aid you in bonding with your newborn and soothe them. It is ideal for feeding at night, cuddles, and comfort checks. You can easily raise or lower the side rail of the crib with only one hand, to help soothe and comfort your child or for a safe way to monitor sleep. It also has a gentle rocking mode and incline function to help relieve symptoms of reflux, such as indigestion or tummy pain.

It has a large storage compartment beneath the crib, perfect for blankets and nappies. It's also designed to be used with divan beds (check the specs for specific ones that may require straps that are longer) So you don't need to worry about your bed frame. Gulhan Arapoglu stated that it was a good size, sturdy and easy to move from room room. She adds that it's a bit heavier than other cribs for bed but that's because of the additional features like a rocking mode and reflux upwards.

Firm mattresses are among the most important things to look for when choosing the crib. Mattresses that are soft could increase the risk of SIDS, also known as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. A mattress that is firm is better for your child as it is more comfortable and helps support healthy spinal growth.

You can buy a crib mattress separately, but we recommend investing in a premium quality model to ensure that your child gets the best rest possible. Verify that the mattress meets British safety standards and is an appropriate size for your baby.

Style

A bedside crib is a baby bassinet that can be attached to the sides of your bed. These cribs are ideal to keep your baby close enough to reach them easily during night feedings and soothe them back into sleep during nap time. They're also great for mothers who have had c-sections but are unable to get up in the middle night to care for their newborn.

There are a variety of styles available but you should look for the following characteristics:

Can it be cleaned with a machine or do you need an easy-to-clean mattress cover? How big is the mattress and can it be raised or lower to accommodate your bed? It is easy to move and how heavy is it?

Jasmine, a mum tester, liked that the crib swivels. This made it easier for her to reach into and out of it to pick up her baby. She also liked the size of the crib, saying it's not as big as a full-sized crib but it's bigger than typical Moses baskets and is comfortable for baby. It's also simple to put together and folds flat, which makes it easy to carry. It was a bit heavy for some mums, which could be an issue for those who have mobility problems.

Another option to think about is the Maxi-Cosi Lora, which won Gold at the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards in the Best Cot, Crib or Moses Basket category. It's different from other cribs for bed in that it does not have an adjustable panel, but instead an adjustable side that you can lower to reach baby. It's not as compact as other cribs when dismantled, but it is still transportable and comes with a travel cot bedside bag.

Some cribs can be transformed into a toddler or cot with the help of an expansion kit. This feature is useful for families who want to expand their baby's sleeping space beyond the newborn stage. However, it is not always required.

Budget

The best cribs for your bed are ones that are placed close to your bed so that you can look after your baby, change nappys at night and feed your baby without having to get up from your bed. You can fold or close the sides so that you can access them in the dark. They must also be breathable to give you a comfortable sleep. The majority will have a bed, which is ideal because you don't want it too hard or clumpy.

The price of more complicated models will likely be higher. Consider whether the crib will work with your bed or not. Certain cribs can only be fitted to with a specific type of divan base. This could be a problem if you own a bedframe that is more unique.

The Next2me Magic crib which is popular with those who have a divan is a great choice for those who already have one. It was nominated for the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards in the category of the Best Cot or Crib, or Moses Basket. It's well-made and has a high mesh side to let you see the baby's face. Our mum testers gave it a thumbs up. It also comes with a handy storage shelf for nappies and blankets, and is relatively lightweight at just 10kg.

Another good alternative is the SnuzPod4, available in a variety of colours, and our mums have been very pleased with it too. The SnuzPod4 is a slim, sleek option that still offers plenty of space for babies to sleep comfortably. Our mums are also awed by features such as incline options which aid in reducing reflux, as well as a relaxing rocking mechanism.

Both cribs can be bought at PS99 or less, which makes them more affordable than a Moses Basket if you are trying to save money on the initial cost of your purchase. It is important to follow the guidelines for safe sleeping however, and ensure that the crib you buy conforms to the Lullaby Trust code for safety.
