Crib Sets - Everything You Need For Your Newborn to Sleep Soundly From Day One

Bedding

When it is time to choose a crib bedding, there are a lot of options out there. But choosing the right sheet is more than choosing a cute design to be in line with your preferences. You need to find one that is firmly fitted and doesn't get clumped into places that could be a risk of suffocation for your baby. It must also be soft to the touch and durable enough to stand up to months of diaper blowouts and spit-up without wearing out too fast.

It's constructed of solid wood and comes with one of the highest mattress heights (for parents who worry about reaching a low mattress).

Mattress

Size and firmness are crucial when it comes to crib mattress. The AAP recommends using a mattress that is firm and fits comfortably and does not leave an impression when you lay a sheet down on it. The mattress should be the appropriate size for the crib and should remain in place, even after your child grows out of it.

You should also determine whether the mattress is made up of chemicals that may harm your child. Find a mattress that is free of volatile organic compound (VOCs) that emit an unpleasant chemical odor. CertiPUR US certification is a good indicator. It certifies that the foam in the mattress is free of ozone depleters as well as other harmful chemicals.

A few other things to consider include how much weight the mattress carries and whether it's waterproof or not. You'll likely be dealing with changes to sheets at night and an easily wipeable or waterproof surface will make cleaning easier.

We also placed an 8-pound weight, a bit heavier than a newborn, on each mattress to determine how the mattress reacted. The most comfortable mattresses did not sink, meaning they provide enough support to keep your child from falling over or being suffocated in bed. Some of the mattresses we tested have a removable, machine-washable cover that is waterproof and zips closed. This makes cleaning them and maintaining them a breeze.

Crib Rails

A crib can't be complete without a set of rails that are fixed. Some furniture companies for babies provide baby rails as part of the crib. Others sell them separately. If you opt to purchase them separately, look for rails that meet the safety requirements. They should, for instance have no missing or loose screws, brackets, and other hardware. They should be strong enough to hold your child's weight without being too thin. They should also to secure themselves so that they can't be removed from your child.

The best cot beds crib rails will not only be strong, they should also fit snuggly within the crib frame. This will keep the mattress from becoming fragile and potentially hazardous for your child. When you purchase a crib rail, be sure to take measurements of the inside of the frame as there are slight variations in crib sizes. The area should be no more than three fingers.

It is also important to ensure that the crib rails don't contain any cutouts that are decorative or other embellishments. They could pose the risk of suffocation. Avoid placing pillows, quilts or blankets in the crib. They can result in an unintentional accumulation of carbon dioxide, increasing the risk of SIDS for your baby.

Crib Hardware

Some crib design features are strictly aesthetic and are subject to personal preference, however other features -- such as the design of the slats on the crib or whether it converts into a toddler bed- can have a significant impact on the user-friendliness of the crib as well as its durability. The best cribs are constructed of solid wood, meet multiple safety regulations and are easily adjusted to various mattress heights. Some cribs have distinct features that make them more useful. For example the Quick Zip Crib Sheet lets you replace the sheets without having to take off the entire mattress.

In general, you should avoid cribs that have decorative cut-outs, affordable Cots or other decorations which could get caught on clothes or pose a risk of choking for infants. Also, be sure to check the crib hardware regularly for loose bolts and other objects that could snag on clothing or other objects and create a hazard.

The best crib sets come with easy-to-follow instructions and all necessary parts including hardware. The majority of modern cribs take half hour or less to put together and a majority come with all the tools you'll need.

It is also possible to think about a convertible crib which can transform into daybed, toddler bed, or full-size bed. This is a good cribs option for families who plan to use the crib for many years or have a limited space. It is important to remember that certain crib conversion kits require additional purchases to fully complete the process.

It can be difficult to understand crib hardware, but it's vital for security and stability. The majority of cribs have the rectangular blocks and wedges (also known as "shims"), and big chocks referred to as step chocks, all of which are designed to snug up contact points between the crib and supported surface.

Some shims and chocks are made from soft woods that crack slowly, which can provide audible warnings prior to failure, while stiffer wooden materials could break abruptly and with more force. Plastic shims and chocks are also available, and can be installed more easily because they do not require drilling or screwing into the surface.
