Choosing the Best Crib
Pick a crib you like. It will be in your nursery for many years. Avoid cribs with cutouts, or drop-sides that your little one might get into, and choose a design that is easily convertible into a toddler bed or daybed.
Safety
As parents, we want to give our children the best start in life, and that starts with a safe crib. You don't want an old crib that may have a lot of loose or missing parts, and you definitely do not want one that isn't conforming to the current safety standards. When purchasing a crib, make sure that it has CPSC, ASTM or JPMA certification.
The slats on a crib should be positioned so that children do not get their heads or fingers in them. They should also not include any decorative cutouts or other decorations that could result in injuries. The mattress support system, which is essential to the security of your crib, should be able to be adjusted to various heights so that it can adapt to the needs of your child.
It is also recommended to avoid dangling objects such as blind strings or curtains since they pose an opportunity for strangulation for your child. It's a good idea examine your crib frequently for any missing or loose items, and replace them if they are missing or that have gotten lost over time.
Some cribs come with an additional side panel that can be lowered. However it won't be down for long. They are ideal for parents who do not want to share the bed. Make sure to put your crib away from windows and radiators.
If you're looking for an environmentally friendly crib, select one made of sustainable forests. It is also recommended to choose one that is Greenguard Gold Certified. This means that it has passed a series of tests to ensure low chemical emissions. If you want to go further, you should look for a crib that's made from sustainable sourced New Zealand pine and is free of lead, Phthalates, BPA, and over 360 other chemicals and VOCs.
Style
Whether you're working with a classic or minimalist style for your nursery, choosing an attractive crib is essential. The SnuzPod4 is slim and sleek which makes it a perfect fit for tight spaces. It also comes with a lower mattress height setting and is GREENGUARD Gold Certified. One of our testers, Mother & Baby Editor Maria Martin, says the crib is "up there with the best-looking ones we've seen even in the midst of grey!"
This classic high-back crib has been constructed using solid New Zealand pinewood and comes in a variety of contemporary colors to fit any style. It's heavier than other cribs we evaluated, but is sturdy enough to last through the age of toddler 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 our other top picks.
It's a good choice for small spaces but its unique design makes it difficult to find bedding and sheets. It's also a bit heavier than our other picks and will probably need to be disassembled to fit through standard doors when moving from room to space.
Standard cribs are constructed from wood, such as oak or maple. They can also be made of mahogany, cherry, birch, or cherry. They are more durable than other materials, and they resist nicks and dings much better than soft pine. But be aware that some manufacturers use pine instead of the more durable hardwoods because it's less expensive. This can make a crib susceptible to scratches and dents and could require more frequent cleaning.
Another plus to the standard crib is that it often includes a toddler rail, which can help to keep your child safe from falling down and climbing. However, keep in mind that a lot of cribs designed for toddlers will require you to purchase your own separate toddler bed rail to ensure security.
Convertibility
There are a lot of aspects to take into consideration when selecting the right crib. It is important to think about the size, style and slat type and whether it's convertible or not. It is essential to choose a crib you like because it will be a part of your baby for a long period of time. It is also important to select the crib that fits into your home's decor regardless of whether it's traditional or modern.
A convertible crib will expand with your baby, becoming a toddler bed, then to a full-size bed. This will save you money in the end because you won't have to purchase a mattress for your child.
Certain convertible cribs stand out more than other. The Graco Benton 5-in-1 convertible crib is a great example. It's GREENGUARD Gold Certified, which means it meets or exceeds government safety standards for construction and finishing. It also has three adjustable height settings for the mattress and an extremely low profile, making it easy to get your baby out of the crib. It is also easy to put together in less than 15 minutes using a cordless drill/driver.
Another option is the DaVinci Jayden 4-in-1 convertible crib. This crib is an excellent value and is GREENGUARD Gold Certified. It is a classic crib that could be converted into a toddler bed or daybed. This crib is easy to put together and its low profile makes it easy for parents to get in and out.
The last crib on our list is the Oeuf Brooklyn convertible crib. This crib is an excellent option for minimalists who want to keep their nursery decor simple and clean. It's a stylish and affordable crib that can be made into an adult bed or a full-size bed with the purchase of an optional rail and kit. The crib is manufactured in Italy and is made using environmentally-friendly manufacturing techniques. It is also GREENGUARD gold certified and designed to be used in conjunction with the brand's mattresses that are free of toxic substances.
Budget
A crib that is of good quality should have sturdy construction and straightforward assembly instructions that lead to an easy and painless installation. A stylish design that fits with the decor of your nursery is essential. Cribs can run the gamut in terms of price however there are some models that are suitable for every budget.
For instance, the highly rated Stokke Sleepi Bed is one of the most flexible options on the market. It can be used as a bassinet, a crib or a toddler bed and can also rock and roll to gently soothe your baby to sleep or create a gentle incline for babies with reflux. The canopy and drape rods will encase your baby in the comfort of a womb-like environment. It can also be used as a portable play space and provides your child with a safe and comfortable spot to sleep when they are moving around.
Another option that doesn't sacrifice on design is the Oeuf Sparrow crib, which combines a modern aesthetic with environmentally friendly materials. infant cot bed and Baltic birch plywood crib is produced sustainably in Europe to last generations (and can be passed down through siblings) and meets all CPSC safety standards, including no cutouts for drop-sides or decorative cuts which could catch clothing. It is easy to dress with a sheet and has no sharp edges.
Some parents may want a minimalist crib to match their modern or contemporary home, while others might prefer a more formal style that complements the decor of the room. If your preference falls into the latter, consider the Babyletto Hudson 3-in-1 crib. This beautiful model transforms from a bassinet to an infant crib and then a full-size crib, without the need for bars or mattresses.
If you're a parent who's not interested in fussiness, go for the simpler and cleaner-looking cribs. The Union 3-in-1 crib as well as the Babyletto Hudson both come with all the components you require to allow your baby to develop into a toddler, but they have more of a traditional look than some other models, like the Storkcraft Equinox 3-in-1 or the Dream on Me Ashton 5-in-1.
