Which Baby Cot is Right For Your Baby?
|
||||
|
||||
Cots protect children from falling out of bed or suffocating when they fall between the mattress and cot. They should not have protrusions or sharp edges.

|
||||
The majority of cots have four secure sides to ensure your baby's safety throughout the day. They often come in an unchanging size, and can be converted into a toddler bed as your child gets older.

|
||||
Standard Cots
|
||||
|
||||
Standard cots are great for smaller nurseries and can be easily installed alongside the beds of parents, allowing them to keep an eye on their child while they sleep. The cots are designed with fixed sides to prevent infants from stepping over them. But, once babies can crawl and stand up, these sides can become dangerous and should be removed to prevent your child from falling off of the their bed or causing injury to themselves.

A cot-bed is a larger version than a cot, with sides that can be removed and end panels. It can be transformed into a toddler's bed once your child grows out of it. This feature is especially useful in the event that you're planning to have more than one child as it removes the need to switch between various types of furniture and saves money on buying separate beds.

Drop-side Cots
|

|

John Lewis Elementary cot is our top pick. It received high marks for its easy assembly. The mother tester Gina said that it was "a dream to construct with very clear instructions and pictures". It comes with a teething rail as well as a drawer to store things in and 3 different positions for the mattress's height.
|
||||
|
||||
The cot is a great option for babies who sleep all night. Make sure that the cot's slats and frame are properly secured and not too loose.
|
||||
|
||||
Check to see if the cot has been certified as meeting British safety regulations. Prior to 2011, US cots were not tested in the same manner as UK models and this has led to some unsafe designs being banned in the USA. Look for a model with an auto-locking side for the drop in the up position. It requires two consecutive actions to unlock. This will prevent your child from being able to pull the side down to climb out.

Corner Cots

While photos of styled nursery pictures may show blankets artistically draped over a cot according to Red Nose, a charity fighting to stop sudden infant death syndrome, any fabrics placed in the vicinity of the baby should be tucked in tightly to reduce the possibility of being suffocated. Red Nose advises that curtains or blinds shouldn't be left hanging above the cot, as they can be strangulating and children could get their heads against them when they roll over in their sleep.
