|
||||
|
||||
Cots offer a restful and comfortable sleep for your little one and offer you the much-needed break between nappy changes, feeds and cleaning up. To maximize your baby's sleep, check out our Canstar Blue reviews to find the best [nursery cots](https://www.cots4tots.co.uk/) for your little one.
|
||||
|
||||
Some cots can be converted to an infant bed using the help of a kit. These are perfect for parents who don't want to purchase the purchase of a new bed once their child is old enough.
|

Size

When you're choosing the best bassinet or nursery cot there are numerous factors to consider. It's important to ensure that the cot you choose meets all safety requirements particularly if you're buying second-hand. You'll need to ensure that the cot isn't splintered from sharp edges or protruding corners, and that there aren't tiny gaps in which your child could get their head, fingers, or arms trapped. It's also essential to choose the cot that is in compliance with Australian standards for infant beds.
|
||||
|
||||
The size of the cot you pick will depend on the space you have and how long you plan to use it. Most standard cots are about 60 cm in size, and 120 cm wide and are ideal for toddlers and infants. Some cots are able to be converted to a single or toddler bed for children and can be used for a longer period of time. This is a great option if you want to avoid buying a new bed every time you have a child.
|
||||
|
||||
Many cots come with adjustable height settings so you can alter the mattress to suit your baby's growing body. They can be adjusted between 3 and five levels, based on the design. Some cots allow you to remove the entire side of the bed, which can be helpful when your baby is beginning to walk or you want to co-sleep with your little one.
|
||||
|
||||
Small cots are usually mounted on wheels or castors so they can easily be moved between rooms. They are great if you have an apartment that is small and do not have a nursery. You can also make them an infant crib when you plan to spend time away from home with your baby or be transferred between homes of family members for holidays. Some cots can be converted into an infant bed or sofa. This lets you sleep next to your child, providing peace-of-mind that they are safe and close.
|
||||
|
||||
Style
|
||||
|
||||
The cot is the most important furniture piece you'll purchase for your baby. It should be strong and secure. It should not have sharp edges or areas that children can get their hands, head or arms caught. The cot must also comply with Australian cot standards. It is important to not buy second-hand cots as they might not meet current safety standards.
|
||||
|
||||
Cots are available in a range of styles and colors to match any decor. They can even be decorated with various accessories, such as a cot mobile. These mobiles can bring different colors and patterns into the crib, which will pique your child's attention and encourage their sensory development. They can also soothe your baby during calm times and help them sleep longer.
|
||||
|
||||
Wicker cots are also popular. This material is reminiscent of simpler times and is perfect for rooms with a natural theme. Its minimalist design makes it a great choice for children of all age groups, and it's typically less expensive than other types of cots. If you do decide to purchase a wicker crib ensure that it is made of high-quality materials and is in compliance with all safety standards that are in force.
|
||||
|
||||
There are also many different shapes and styles for cots. Some cots have a built-in space for storage. This is a great option to store all the essentials for your baby including nappies, clothes bedding, and other things. Some cots come with legs which lift them off the floor, which helps to keep them clean and also prevents them from being exposed to dust and other germs.
|
||||
|
||||
Some cots are designed to transform into a toddler bed which can be used up until your baby is approximately six years old. This is especially beneficial for families planning to have more children or want to save money by purchasing more beds for your growing family. For example the Leander cot that has an extension kit can be made into a toddler bed that can last your child up to age 7. This option will save your time and money.
|
||||
|
||||
Safety
|
||||
|
||||
When shopping for a cot for your nursery, select one that is constructed from sturdy materials. It should have a sturdy base and sturdy sides with no gaps between slats that could allow baby fingers to get stuck. Make sure the furniture has non-toxic finishes and does not chip or peel. If you're not sure about the safety of a product, look for certifications that show it has been tested and that it meets all relevant regulations.
|
||||
|
||||
Some parents opt for the Moses basket or a crib instead of a traditional bed. They are great for infants as they provide the baby with a safe place to sleep and not have to leave them alone. However, if your baby is getting too big for these items, you can use the top of a cot to help them transition from smaller rooms.
|
||||
|
||||
To lower the risk of Sudden Infant Demise Syndrome (SIDS) to reduce the risk of developing SIDS, it is crucial to adhere to the guidelines for sleeping. NHS UK recommends a firm mattress, and to stay clear of pillows, blankets or toys that could lead to the child to suffocate.
|
||||
|
||||
Dressers, bookshelves and other furniture for storage could be a danger in the event that a curious child climbs or leans against them. Make sure that any high-heeled pieces are securely attached to the wall and regularly assessed for stability. Place heavier items on the bottom of shelves and drawers to redistribute the weight and prevent accidents.
|
||||
|
||||
Choking hazards are a further security concern in a nursery. Children are known to eat on the cot rails corners, slats, or corners. You can stay clear of these dangers by choosing a cot with smooth corners and no edges that protrude or removing these elements once your child is old enough to stand on their own.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, you should avoid placing any wall-mounted clocks or other accessories with cords that are long close to the cot. If their hands or toes get stuck in the cords, babies and children can be strangled. Also, make sure that cots are kept away from windows where curtains or blinds have cords that are long enough to cause an accident.
|
||||
|
||||
Originality
|
||||
|
||||
The bed is among the most important parts of a baby's bedroom, as this is where they'll spend most of their first year. This is why it is important to invest in a chic cot that will help to set the tone for the rest of the room's decor. There are a variety of options on the market, including contemporary cots with sleek lines and sleek designs that blend seamlessly into any space. There are also traditional cots such as metal ones that are ideal for rooms decorated in traditional style.
|
||||
|
||||
Wooden cots are popular because they have an organic appearance that can be paired with an array of nursery decors. They are typically made of birch, maple or beech and are typically varnished to protect them from accidental scratches. However, they can be expensive and not suited to all budgets.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are looking for an exclusive baby cot, think about buying one with curves on the edges. This gives it a distinctive aesthetic that makes it stand apart from other cots that are available. They also have more storage space underneath.
|
||||
|
||||
A cot can be turned into a toddler and day bed. This is a great way to maximize the value of your money and it will ensure that your child's bed will last all their developmental stages. Some cots are sold with conversion kits while others can be purchased separately.
|
||||
|
||||
When choosing a cot, ensure that it meets British safety standards. This includes checking that the mattress is fitted properly and there aren't any gaps that your child can escape from the crib. Also, you should remove any decorations or stickers that could pose dangerous to your child's health and ensure that the bars aren't too close to each other.
|
||||
|
||||
There are a wide range of cots both online and in stores at retailers like Dunelm Ikea and John Lewis. It is recommended to purchase from a store as you will be able to view the cots in person and decide if they're suitable for your baby.
