It will be in your nursery for a long time. Avoid cribs with cutouts and drop-sides as your child could fall in. Instead, opt for a design which is easily converted to a daybed or toddler. Safety We want to give our children the best possible start in life. This begins with a crib that's safe. You don't want an old crib that might contain a number of loose or damaged parts, and you definitely don't want one that isn't conforming to the current safety standards. When purchasing a crib ensure that it is certified by the CPSC, ASTM or JPMA certification. The crib's slats should be spaced evenly so that children cannot catch their heads or fingers in them. They shouldn't include any decorative cutouts or other ornaments that could cause injury. A mattress support system is essential to ensure the safety of your crib, and it should be able to adjust to different heights to accommodate your baby as they grow. Avoid hanging items like curtains or blinds, as they can strangle your child. It is a good idea to check your crib regularly for missing or loose objects, and replace any that have gotten lost over time. Some cribs come with a side panel which can be removed. However, it will not stay down for long. These are useful for parents who want to co-sleep without the risks of bed-sharing, but be sure that you're positioned in a room free of windows and radiators and that your child isn't too close to the curtain or window sill. If you're looking for an environmentally friendly crib, select one constructed from sustainable forests. It's also a good idea to select a crib that's Greenguard Gold Certified, meaning it has passed tests for low emissions of chemicals. If you're looking to go even further, look for a crib that is made from sustainably harvested New Zealand pine and is free of lead, phthalates, BPA, and over 360 other chemicals and VOCs. Style Whether you're working with a minimal or classic style for your nursery, choosing an elegant crib is a must. The SnuzPod4 is sleek and slim which makes it a perfect choice for small spaces. It's also GREENGUARD Certified and has an adjustable lower height mattress. One of our test subjects, Mother & Baby Editor Maria Martin, says the crib is "up there with the most beautiful cribs we've seen even in the midst of grey!" This classic high-back crib is crafted with solid New Zealand pinewood and comes in a variety of modern colors to fit any style. It's heavier than other cribs we've test, but it's durable 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 occupies more space in the nursery than some of our other top cribs. While it's a great option for small spaces, its distinctive design can be difficult to find bedding and sheets for. It's also heavier than some of our other picks and may need to be disassembled to fit through standard doors when you move from room to the next. Standard cribs are typically made from wood, including maple oak, ash mahogany, cherry or birch. They are more durable than other materials, and can withstand nicks and dings much better than soft pine. However, be aware of the fact that certain manufacturers use pine instead of the more durable hardwoods because it's less expensive. This can make the crib more vulnerable to scratches and dent, which may require more frequent cleaning. Another plus to a standard crib is that it often comes with a toddler rail which can help to keep your child safe from climbing and falling out. Be aware that a lot of cribs specifically designed for toddlers require you to buy a separate toddler bed rail. Convertibility There are many things to think about when choosing a crib. You must consider size, style and slat style, as well as whether it's convertible or not. It is essential to choose a crib you like because it will be with your child for a long period of time. You should also choose the crib that will go with the style of your home, whether it's contemporary or traditional. A convertible crib will grow with your baby, turning into a toddler bed, then an adult size bed. This will save you money over the long term because you won't need to buy a separate mattress for your child. There are numerous convertible cribs on the market However, some stand out more than others. One example is the Graco Benton 5in1 convertible crib. It's GREENGUARD Gold Certified, which means that it is in compliance with or exceeds the government safety standards for construction and finish. It also comes with three mattress settings that can be adjusted and a low profile that makes it easier to take your child into and out of it. This crib is also relatively easy to build, taking less than 15 minutes using an electric drill or driver. Another option that is worth considering is the DaVinci Jayden 4-in-1 convertible crib. The crib is GreenGuard Certified Gold and is a great purchase. It is a classic design and can be made into a toddler bed, daybed, or full-size bed with the purchase of separate conversion kits. This crib is easy to put together, and its low profile makes it easy for parents to move in and out. The final crib on our list is the Oeuf Brooklyn convertible crib. This crib is perfect for those who want to keep their bedroom simple and clean. This elegant crib can be made into a full-size toddler bed by purchasing an additional rail and kit. This crib is made in Italy and is made using environmentally-friendly production methods. Mini Cot Bed is also GREENGUARD gold certified and is designed to be used alongside the brand's mattresses that are free of toxic substances. Budget A quality crib is one that has a solid construction and easy assembly instructions. This will make the process effortless. And a stylish design that fits with the decor of your nursery is crucial. There are a variety of cribs available to be purchased at different prices. The Stokke Sleepi Bed, for instance, is among the most flexible options available on the market. It can be used as a bassinet crib or a toddler bed. It also has the ability to roll and rock to gently soothe your baby to sleep or create an incline that is gentle for reflux babies. The added drape rod and canopy envelop your baby in a comfortable baby-like womb. It can also serve as a portable play space that provides your child with a safe and comfortable spot to sleep when they are on the move. The Oeuf Sparrow crib is another option that does not sacrifice style. It combines a modern aesthetic with sustainable materials. The solid birch and Baltic birch plywood crib is made sustainably in Europe to last for generations (and can be passed down through siblings) and is compliant with all CPSC safety standards, which include no cutouts for drop-sides or decorative cuts which could catch clothing. It is easy to dress with sheets and is free of sharp edges. Some parents may want an uncluttered crib that complements their contemporary or modern home, while others might prefer a more formal design that is suited to the room's decor. If your preference falls in the latter category look into the Babyletto Hudson 3-in-1 crib. The elegantly designed model can be converted from bassinet to an infant crib, and then to a full crib, all without the need for mattresses or bars, so you'll have less mess to clean up. If you are a parent who doesn't like the fussiness of a crib, pick one that is simpler and cleaner in appearance. The Union 3-in-1 crib as well as the Babyletto Hudson both come with all the pieces you'll need to allow your baby to grow into a toddler, but they have a more traditional design than some models, like the Storkcraft Equinox 3-in-1 or Dream on Me Ashton 5-in-1.]]> Choosing the Best Crib Choose a crib that you love.
