Bedside Baby Beds

Baby cribs in bed allow parents to keep their newborn bedside cot close to them at night without compromising on safety. They are specifically designed for infants and can be used until 4 to 6 months.

The Halo Bassinest is a swivel-over-the-parent's-bed with a side that can be lowered so that parents can pick up their infant during feeding times at night. The base will not fit under beds lower than 4.5" high.

Safety features

A bedside crib allows parents to watch, comfort and feed their children at night without having to leave their bed. This arrangement of sleep is perfect for mothers who are recovering from childbirth or with limited mobility and may also help parents stay more rested throughout the night. However, it is important to consider safety features prior to purchasing a bedside baby bed.

The primary safety concern with this type of sleeping surface is that it's not a complete barrier between the bed of the parent and the baby's sleeping space, resulting in gaps that could cause dangers of suffocation to infants. Sharing a bed can increase the body heat of the parent and could increase the risk of overheating. This could lead to SIDS.

Although some manufacturers claim that co-sleepers for bedside use to be safer than cribs, they are not covered by the CPSC safety standards. These products may have slats that allow the baby's legs or head to be snagged, and their attachment mechanisms can be unstable and lead to separation.

Many of these surfaces have bedding that is loose, which can lead to suffocation. Babies don't have the strength or coordination to remove themselves from the tangles of soft bedding and the gaps between the frame and the mattress can cause a suffocation risk. Some of these beddings have a hard bottom that can cause injury to a baby if they fall onto it. One user suggested that CPSC include pictograms on its warnings about these products, which will reduce the chances of caregivers missing key elements. Sleepers at the bedside need an easy transition system that prevents the baby from sliding off the parent's mattress.

Bedding

A bedside crib, also referred to as a co-sleeper or bassinet, allows babies to sleep on their parents' beds while maintaining a separate sleeping space. This type of safe co-sleeping reduces the risks of entrapment, suffocation, and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) by keeping infants close to their parents and within arms' reach for middle-of-the-night feedings or comforting.

Baby bedding for a baby who sleeps at night can include crib sheets, blankets, bumpers and stuffed animals. Make sure the bedding you choose fits the baby's bed properly. This will prevent pockets or bulges from obstructing the baby's airway. Make sure that the mattress you choose for your baby's bed is firm and firmly fitted without gaps around the edges.

If you're in search of a bedding set that will keep your baby clean in case they fall or spill up in the night, choose something that is easy to wash and dry. It is also a good idea to think about a travel bag for your sleeper at night, so you can easily pack and unpack it when you travel with your family or visit the grandparents' homes.

When your child is no longer a bedside crib or cot sleeper, it is possible to transition them to a standalone toddler or a crib. When transitioning, make sure to remove the crib from the bed of your parent over several months or even weeks so that your infant can be comfortable sleeping in their own space, while still feeling connected to their parents. Be sure to select a crib that you can fold up easily for storage and transport. Some cribs can be converted into a play yard or deeper bassinet. This makes them a perfect option for parents who are new and like to travel cot bedside crib.

Tilt function

A bedside sleeper, sometimes referred to as the bassinet, is a bassinet that is attached to the side of a bed for adults. One side is lower than the other side to allow parents to reach their baby at night. It may have a tilt feature that helps reduce reflux in babies. Some parents report that this feature can help their children sleep better. However it is crucial to note that an elevated or slanted sleeping surface could cause your child to fall into a dangerous chest-to-chin position. This can lead to suffocation and should be avoided.

A suitable mattress is also an important factor when choosing the crib for your child's bed. It must be flat and firm and breathable. The mattress should be the same size as the crib and be able to fit into the frame. A second-hand mattress could increase the risk of SIDS, so it is recommended to purchase a new crib mattress. Some retailers offer mattresses made specifically for specific bed frames, therefore it is recommended to stick with them if you can.

Some cribs designed for bedside are made to tuck under your bed to conserve space and keep your baby close, such as the Halo BassiNest. However certain beds are too low for this type of crib. Additionally, the BassiNest's legs with splayed feet make it difficult to slide under certain beds. It is also difficult to tuck it under a divan bed, which could cause it to rock or shift out of alignment with the mattress.

Other types of bedside cribs like the Ingenuity Dream and Grow bedside baby sleeper Bassinet can be placed next to your mattress, but aren't capable of tilting. CHOICE suggests parents use these beds with a firm, breathable mattress. Tilting a bassinet or bedside crib could encourage your baby to slide into a risky position and increase the chance of the possibility of suffocation.

Foot-to-foot positioning

A bedside baby bed also known as a co-sleeper or bassinet, is a compact crib that is attached to the sides of a bed for an adult. It allows parents to easily access their child during the night. These beds are generally larger than standard cots or bassinets, and some even have a a lower side that forms an unintentional separation between the sleeping spaces. They are constructed of solid materials and have wheels that make them easier to move around the house.

Some bedside cribs come with a tilt feature that can help babies who suffer from digestive issues, such as reflux or colic. It is essential to use the tilt function with care and at a moderate angle to avoid suffocation. If you're uncertain about whether you should utilize this feature, speak to your doctor or health professional for guidance.

The mattress is a further safety factor to consider when choosing a crib for your child's bedside. The mattress must be firm, flat and breathable to minimize the risk of SIDS. A mattress that is too firm could cause obstruction of the airway in infants, which can lead to danger. A mattress that is breathable will help your child stay cool at night, reducing the chance of overheating.

It is recommended that you place your baby in a safe sleeping space - crib, cot or Moses basket. It could be tempting to sleep in the same bed as your infant, but this can lead to SIDS. You should wait until your baby is able to sleep independently before attempting to co-sleep. If you are able to, ensure that your bedroom is not smoke-free to protect your child from secondhand smoke. Plunket may offer assistance with a bassinet or a crib in the event that you are a low-income parent.

Second-hand cribs

Parents who want to save money could be tempted by a used bassinet, crib or cradle they get from a family member or friend. Cribs are one of many nursery items that could lead to death, particularly in older cribs that have damaged or missing parts, or have a wider space between the slats. In addition, older mattresses may develop dips and other conditions that could pose danger to your child. If your crib is too old to meet the current safety standards it could be contaminated by lead paint or other harmful chemicals.

Verify if the crib has been recalls on the crib. Check if the crib was painted with water-based, since this is safer for infants. Ensure that the mattress is firm and that it fits comfortably. Mattresses that are soft can cause infants to slip out, and they also pose a suffocation risk.

In addition to cribs, pay special attention to any used bassinets, cradles and play yards. They should all be JPMA-certified and free of sharp edges which could cause injury to your baby. Avoid putting pillows, blankets or toys to these items which could create dangerous entrapment risks.

Infants have died in cribs that were altered or interfered with. Most of these accidents occurred when caregivers or parents tried to make the cribs functional or more attractive by adding or altering things. Since 1973, the crib manufacturers and the CPSC have worked together to set mandatory standards for safer cribs, addressing issues like side height, slat spacing, mattress fit, corner posts and cutouts in the end panels. In the last few years, the number of crib-related deaths has decreased from 150-200 per year to 50.
