Safety features

This type of arrangement is ideal for new mothers recovering from childbirth, or who have limited mobility. It could help parents stay rested throughout the night. However, it is important to evaluate safety features before purchasing a bedside baby bed.

The main safety concern for this type of sleep surface is that it's not an entirely secure barrier between the bed of the parent and the baby's sleeping space, resulting in gaps that could lead to the risk of suffocation for infants. In addition, sharing the bed with an infant increases the parent's body heat and raises the chance of overheating which can contribute to SIDS.

While some manufacturers claim that bedside co-sleepers are more secure than traditional cribs, they are not subject to CPSC's safety standards. These products can include slats that allow babies' legs or heads to be caught. The mechanisms for attachment could also be unstable, resulting in separation.

Many of these surfaces contain loose bedding that could cause suffocation. Babies lack the strength and coordination to untangle themselves from bedding that is soft. The gaps between the mattress and frame can also create an entrapment risk. Some of these products have a hard base that could cause injury to a baby should they fall onto it. One commenter suggested that CPSC include pictograms in its warnings on these products, which will lower the risk of caregivers missing key elements. Sleepers at the bedside need a smooth transition system that prevents the baby from falling off the parent's bed.

Bedding

A bedside sleeper cot crib (also called a co-sleeper or bassinet) lets babies sleep next to their parents' beds, while still occupying a separate space. This safe form of co-sleeping reduces the chance of suffocation and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome by keeping babies close to their parents.

Baby bedding to sleep in the bed can include crib sheets and bumpers. It could also include stuffed animals and blankets. Make sure that the bedding you choose to use is appropriate for the bedside sleeper to avoid pockets or bulges which could hinder the baby's breathing.

If your baby has outgrown the bedside sleeper you can transition your child to a crib or a toddler that is all on its own. When transitioning, make sure to remove the crib from the parent's bed over several months or weeks to allow your child to be comfortable sleeping in their own space, while still being a part of their parents' presence. Pick a crib that is able to be folded up to be stored and transported. Some models can even be converted into an outdoor play area or a deeper bassinet. This makes them a great option for parents who frequently travel.

Tilt function

A bedside sleeper is a bassinet which attaches to the side of the adult bed and has one side lower than the other, allowing parents to reach out to care for their child at night. It could also come with a tilt function to help alleviate reflux in babies. Some parents find this feature helps their baby sleep better. It is important to remember that a slanted or elevated, sleeping surface may encourage your baby's chin to chest position. This can cause suffocation, and should be avoided.

A suitable mattress is also crucial in deciding on the right crib for your child's bed. It should be firm and flat, as well as ventilated. The mattress should be similar to the size of the crib and be able to fit into the frame. It is best to purchase an entirely new mattress for the crib since a second-hand one could increase the chance of SIDS. If you can, it is recommended to purchase mattresses that are designed specifically for specific bed frames.

It's also a challenge to place it under a divan bed, which could cause it slide or sway out of alignment with the mattress.

Other cribs for bedside use like the Ingenuity Dream and Grow bedside crib co sleeper Bassinet can be set up beside your mattress, but they aren't capable of tilting. CHOICE suggests that parents only use these beds when they have a sturdy air-conditioned bed. The tilt of a bassinet can encourage your child to roll into a risky position, increasing the risk of suffocation.

Foot-to-foot positioning

These beds are usually larger than traditional bassinets or cots. Some have a lower edge, which creates an enclosure between the sleeping spaces. They are usually made of durable materials, and some have wheels to make it easy to move around the home.

Some bedside cribs have a tilt function which can assist babies with digestive issues like reflux or colic. However, it's important to utilize this feature with extreme care and at a small angle to avoid suffocation. If you're uncertain about whether or not to make use of this feature, talk to your GP or health visitor for advice.

Another important aspect to consider when choosing a crib for a bedside cot mattress is the mattress. The mattress must be smooth, firm and breathable, to lower the risk of SIDS.

Second-hand cribs

Parents who are looking to save money may be attracted by a secondhand bassinet, crib, or cradle that they get from a family member or friend. Cribs are just one of the nursery items that could lead to death, especially in older cribs that have damaged or missing parts, or have larger spaces between the slats. In addition, older mattresses may create dips and other conditions which could be dangerous for your child. If a crib is not old enough to meet the safety standards of today, it may be contaminated by lead paint or contain other toxic chemicals.

Verify if the crib has been removed from the crib. Make sure the crib was painted with water-based, as this is safer for infants. Additionally, ensure that the mattress is sturdy and snugly fits. Babies can easily slide off mattresses that are soft, which also could pose a danger of suffocation.

Be especially cautious of second-hand bassinets and cradles, and play yards. They must all be JPMA certified, and have no sharp elements that your baby can scratch or poke themselves on. Avoid putting pillows, blankets or toys to these products which could create entrapment hazards.

Infants have died in cribs that were altered with or altered and the majority of incidents occurred when parents and caregivers tried to make the cribs more functional or attractive by adding items or modifying them in a way. Since 1973, crib makers and the CPSC have worked together to create standard requirements for safer infant cribs. These standards dealt with things like side heights, slat spacings, corner posts, mattress fits and cutouts on the end panels. In the last few years, the number of deaths attributed to cribs has decreased from 150 to 200 a year to 50.
