|

|

Cots provide quality sleep for your little one and offer you the needed time to relax between nappy changes, feeds and cleaning up. To maximize your baby's rest, check out our Canstar Blue reviews to find the best [nursery cots](https://www.cots4tots.co.uk/) for your baby.
|
||||
|
||||
Some cots are made to grow with your child and can be transformed to a toddler bed with a kit. These are ideal for parents who want to save money on purchasing a new bed when the baby is old enough.

There are many things to consider when choosing the best nursery cot or bassinet. If you're purchasing second-hand, you must ensure that the bassinet or cot you choose has passed all safety tests. You'll want to be sure that the cot isn't splintered of sharp edges or protruding corners and that there are no tiny gaps in which your child could be able to get their head, fingers, or arms trapped. It's also essential to choose the cot that is in compliance with Australian standards for infant beds.
|
||||
|
||||
The size of the cot you select will depend on the space you have and how long you plan to use it. The most common cots measure around 60 cm x 120 cm and are suitable for infants and toddlers. However some cots are made to convert into a toddler bed or children's single beds, which means they can be used for a longer period of time. This is an excellent option for those who want to avoid purchasing a new bed each time you have a child.
|
||||
|
||||
You can alter the height of a number of cots to fit the changing body of your baby. They can be adjusted between 3 and 5 levels, based on the design. Some cots also allow the removal of one side of the bed completely, which is useful as your baby begins to walk or you'd like to test co-sleeping with your little nipper.
|
||||
|
||||
Compact cots are usually with wheels or castors so that they are able to be moved easily between rooms. They can be especially useful if your home is small and doesn't have a dedicated nursery. You can also make them a travel crib if you plan to spend time away from your home with your baby or if they need to be transported between houses of family members during holidays. Some cots can be transformed into an infant bed or sofa. This lets you sleep next to your child, providing security and close.

|

Style
|
||||
|
||||
A cot is the focal point of your nursery and the most essential piece of furniture you will need to purchase for your baby. It should be safe and sturdy. It should be free of sharp edges protruding from the sides and no places where children's head, fingers or arms could become entangled. A cot must also meet Australian standards for cots. It is important to not buy second-hand cots as these may not meet current safety standards.
|
||||
|
||||
Cots are available in a wide range of styles and colors to match any decor. You can personalize them with a variety of accessories such as mobiles for cots. These mobiles introduce contrasting colours and patterns to the crib, capturing your baby's attention and stimulating their sensory development. They can aid your baby to sleep more comfortably and help them relax during calm times.
|
||||
|
||||
Wicker cots are also very popular. This material evokes simpler times and is perfect for a room with an organic theme. Its simple design makes this cot a great option for children of any age, and is often cheaper than alternative types of cots. If you decide to buy a wicker crib, make sure that it is made of top-quality materials and that it meets all safety standards.
|
||||
|
||||
There are also cots that come in a variety shapes and finishes. For instance, some come with a built-in storage space. This is a great place to store all your baby's essentials, such as nappies, clothing bedding, toys and more. Some cots come with legs which lift them off the floor, which helps to keep them clean and protect them from being exposed to germs and dust.
|
||||
|
||||
Some cots are designed to transform into a toddler bed, which can be used until your child is around six years old. This feature is particularly useful for families planning to have more children or want to save money on purchasing multiple beds for your growing family. For example the Leander cot with an extension kit can be converted into an infant bed that will keep your child until age 7. This option can save you lots of time and money in the long term.

|

Safety
|
||||
|
||||
When you are looking for a nursery cot, choose one that is sturdily constructed from durable materials. It should have a sturdy base and solid sides, with no gaps that can allow fingers to get caught in the slats. Also, make sure you choose furniture with nontoxic finishes that won't chip or peel. If you're unsure about the safety of a product be sure to look for certifications that demonstrate the item has been tested and meets all relevant regulations.
|
||||
|
||||
Some parents opt for a Moses basket or crib instead of a traditional cot. These are perfect for babies as they provide an ideal place for babies to sleep, without having to leave them to themselves. However, if your baby is becoming too big for these items you can make use of the top of a cot to help them transition from smaller rooms.
|
||||
|
||||
To lower the risk of Sudden Infant Demise Syndrome (SIDS) It is important that you follow the sleep guidelines. NHS UK recommends a firm mattress, and to stay clear of pillows, blankets, or toys that could cause the suffocation of your child.
|
||||
|
||||
Dressers, bookshelves and other furniture for storage can also be dangerous when an uninitiated child climbs on them or leans against them. Be sure to verify the stability of any tall piece and secure them to the wall. Also, keep heavier items at the bottom of shelves and drawers to distribute their weight and prevent accidents.
|
||||
|
||||
Choking hazards are another danger in a nursery. Children are known to eat on the cot rail, corners, or slats. You can prevent these risks by purchasing a cot that has rounded corners and no protruding edge or by removing the components when your child is old and able to stand on their own.
|
||||
|
||||
It is also recommended to avoid placing any clocks or wall-mounted accessories with cords that are long close to the cot. If their fingers or toes get caught in the cords, children and infants could be strangled. Also, make sure that cots are kept away from windows where blinds or curtains have long cords that could cause the possibility of falling.
|
||||
|
||||
Originality
|
||||
|
||||
One of the most important aspects in a baby's nursery is their bed, as it is where they will spend most of their their first few years. It is therefore worth investing in a chic crib that will set the style for your room's decor. There are many options available on the market, including modern cots with sleek lines and sleek designs that blend seamlessly into any space. There are also more traditional cots, like metal ones, which are perfect for rooms that are decorated in classic styles.
|
||||
|
||||
Wooden cots are also popular due to their organic look that will complement many different nursery decors. They are typically made from maple or birch and are varnished to shield them from accidental scratches. However, they can be expensive and not suited to all budgets.
|
||||
|
||||
If you're looking to purchase a truly unique baby cot, you should consider purchasing one with curves on the edges. This gives the cot a distinctive aesthetic that makes it stand out among other cots. These cots are also known for their practicality, since they provide more space beneath for storage.
|
||||
|
||||
A cot can be transformed into a toddler or day bed. This is a great way to get more value for your money and it will ensure that your child's bed will be able to last through every stage of growth. Some cots are equipped with conversion kits, while others can be purchased separately.
|
||||
|
||||
When you are choosing a cot ensure that it complies with British safety regulations. This includes making sure that the mattress is set correctly and that there are no gaps where your child may fall out of the crib. Also, you should remove any decorations or stickers that could pose dangerous to your child's health and ensure that the bars aren't close together.
|
||||
|
||||
There is a vast variety of cots online and in stores at retailers such as Dunelm, Ikea and John Lewis. You should always visit a store, as you can look at the cots, and decide which one is best for your child.
