Ease of access A bedside crib, also referred as a co-sleeper or bedside bassinet is a specifically designed sleep solution that allows babies to be close to parents without the risks of co-sleeping (like rolling off the mattress of their parents or suffocating). It can be particularly helpful for mothers who have had C-sections while they recover and aid them in getting into the swing with their baby. While it's a fantastic method to teach sharing the space with your baby, you should consider certain things when buying one. As a rule of thumb it is best to ensure the crib has an enclosure of 12cm to prevent your baby from rolling out and over onto your side of the bed. It must also have a simple-to-access drop-down side so that you can reach and pick up your little one during the night for feeding or comforting, and it's essential that it sits neatly beside your bed.

Other popular options include the HALO BassiNest Essentia, which features a swiveling sleeping area and a sidewall that drops down effortlessly to allow you to easily reach in to pick up baby or soothe them.

They also comply with the latest BS EN1130:2019 safety standards, which set higher requirements for this type of product. There are rocking bedside crib on the market that do not meet these standards, but as manufacturers replace older models with safer models, they'll gradually disappear from the market. Check to see if the crib you're considering buying meets the new safety standard. Safety It is important to ensure a safe and secure environment for your newborn.

Bedside cribs are a safe and practical solution for parents who want to keep their children close. This encourages bonding and gives them the peace of mind knowing that they aren't in danger. When buying a bassinet, bedside cot or crib, make sure that it has a firm, flat mattress. Any gaps could lead to death. Also, make sure the crib frame is sturdy and that the slats are placed no more than 3/8 inches apart. Verify that the mattress is in compliance with EN 16890, and that it has been tested to ensure the strength, stability and firmness. Also, you should avoid putting in any items to your newborn's crib that increase the risk of suffocation, entrapment or strangulation, such as blankets, pillows, and toys except if they're designed for sleeping. Avoid sleep wedges and positioners, as they have not been proven clinically to help your baby sleep better. They could also be risky. It is a good idea to buy a crib that has fixed sides instead of cribs with drop sides, since they are considered to be safer. Avoid cribs that have mobiles attached, as they could cause strangulation and choke risk to your child when the string or cord becomes entangled. Finally, be sure to ensure the crib's hardware free of sharp edges which could hurt or scratch your child. In addition, ensure that the crib's bedding and mattress are properly secured and that there aren't broken or loose screws, brackets, buckles or snaps. You should also look for a JPMA Certification seal, since this indicates that the crib has been sample tested and meets the highest safety standards in the industry. The seal can be found by searching for a product category on JPMA's Certification Directory.

Many cribs have an additional side panel that can be lowered and then lowered to let you view your baby easily and raise them up towards you for feeding, night changing nappy or just for calming. Certain cribs feature a mesh wall that zips down and can be tucked into the mattress for extra security. This reduces the chance of duvets or blankets falling onto your baby. The SnuzPod 4, for instance, has a breathable material that boosts airflow and decreases the chance of the suffocation risk. Most cribs can be attached to your mattress or bed with straps. However, you should make sure that the straps provided with the crib will fit the bed frame. This is particularly crucial if you have divan-style beds.
