Safety

A secure sleeping space is essential and a big factor when selecting a bed. The mattress should fit snugly and there should be no gaps between the mattress and the edges or sides of the cot/cot-bed (large gaps can hold the child's arms and head). Make sure it's firm and thin. Thicker mattresses aren't recommended, since they could increase the risk of SIDS. There are many companies that offer a variety of mattresses, ranging from basic foam to natural materials suitable for allergy sufferers and some even contain anti-microbial treatments. If your mattress has an inclined side, make sure it is in the up position and secured.

A drop side should be allowed to fall only if an adult is present, to prevent accidental release. Do not place your cot against walls if it has an end that is solid. This will restrict airflow, which can result in death of the coffin. According to the latest research, slatted end cots could be safer as they permit more airflow.

If your cot is set on one side, choose it. It's the safest option for your baby when they begin to crawl and then pull themselves upwards. When your child is confidently climbing and standing, it's the time to upgrade to a junior bed.

Some cots are equipped with an option that allows the base to be raised up to three levels. This is a great security measure that allows your child's cot to expand with their needs. Some cots have adjustable footplates, which are ideal for toddlers who wish to sit up in their beds.

When placing your child's cot ensure there aren't any visible dangers. It should be put away from any heaters or power points. Also make sure it is away from windows, curtains and blind cords. All of these could present a strangulation threat. If you're purchasing furniture that is second-hand or an heirloom Be sure to check for potential hazards to choking such as stickers and transfers that can be removed and pose a risk.

If your nursery is small, you may be considering the possibility of a crib. It is smaller and requires less space. However, if you plan to spend a lot of your baby's time in the room, or if you need a bed that will last longer, you should opt for a cot.

If a cot doesn't meet the UK safety standards set by BS EN 716 or BS 8509 (which covers the thickness of mattresses, the materials used, and other important elements of baby cot mattresses) it is not safe for babies to sleep. The slats shouldn't be too close together, to ensure your baby doesn't fall off.

Stores

The amount of baby equipment you'll need is overwhelming regardless of whether you're a new mom or an experienced one. This is the reason it's important to consider the storage options when you choose a cot bed.
