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

The best crib sets come with everything you require for your baby to rest comfortably from the first day. They are pre-shrunk and washable. They are designed to fit comfortably on the mattress without getting tangled - a major danger for infants.

One parent testigator said she used hers through two babies and passed it on to a friend, making it a smart purchase. Its sleek design makes it an ideal choice for smaller nursery spaces.

Bedding

There are many choices when it comes to bedding for your crib. It's not just about choosing a pattern that matches your personal style. You also want to ensure that the sheet is fitted tightly and doesn't bunch up in areas that could be the risk of choking your child. It should also be soft to the touch and durable enough to withstand months of blowouts from diapers and spit-up, without deteriorating too fast.

One of our top picks is this set from Avocado, which contains two sheets made from 100% organic cotton certified by GOTS and MADE SAFE-certified, an independent third-party certification that guarantees the company's textiles meet rigorous standards for quality and safety. They're pre-shrunk, which means they won't shrink or stretch after washing, and they're made to fit a standard crib mattress (27 1 4 inches wide by 51 5/8 inches long). The blankets are machine washable to get rid of the inevitable mess that your baby will create.

A crib mattress pad is another ideal option for babies and toddlers. It provides an additional layer of comfort and shields the mattress from spills and stains. Look for mattress pads that are less than an inch thick so your child is able to breathe easily. Avoid anything that is too fluffy, or with bows, long ribbons and other adornments. They can fall off and pose a strangulation hazard.

If you're planning to keep your baby in a crib for a long time, you should consider purchasing a convertible crib. These cot beds can be transformed into a toddler bed, or even a full-size or daybed. Some cribs come with required conversion kits included, but others require a separate purchase.

A few of our most recommended cribs-loved cribs are this Dream On Me Ashton 5-in-1 crib that is sleigh-style, constructed of solid wood and features one of the taller mattress heights (for parents who are worried about reaching down to a mattress that is low). It's also Greenguard Gold-certified, which means it meets strict environmental standards to reduce gassing.

Mattress

When it is about crib mattresses, firmness and size are essential. The AAP suggests using a firm mattress that fits comfortably and does not leave an indentation when you lay a sheet down on it. The mattress should be of the proper size for the crib and should remain in place after your child has grown out of it.

In addition, you'll want to be aware of whether the mattress is made up of chemicals that could be harmful to your child. You should look for a mattress free of volatile organic compound (VOCs) that emit an unpleasant chemical odor. A good indicator is a CertiPUR-US certificate, which certifies that the mattress's foam is made without Ozone depleters, PBDEs, TDCPP and TCEP flame retardants, mercury, lead and other heavy metals, formaldehyde phthalates regulated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, and volatile organic compounds.

Other factors to consider include the weight of the mattress and whether or not it is waterproof. A surface that is waterproof or wipeable is better for cleaning, since you'll be changing sheets every night. The Naturepedic Organic Cotton Classic 150 Seamless 2Stage is the largest product we tested, weighing at 20 pounds. This could be a problem for some parents.

Another thing to keep in mind is if the mattress is dual-sided. Some have a firm infant side and a soft toddler side. Pediatricians suggest flipping the mattress of your child when they reach the peak of normal growth. This is typically at around 12 months.

When testing crib mattresses, we measured them and observed how they could fold and move to dress the sides with sheets. We also placed the weight of 8 pounds which was slightly heavier than the weight of a newborn baby, on each mattress to see how it responded. The best mattresses did not sink, meaning they offer enough support to stop your child from falling over or being suffocated in bed. Some of the mattresses we tested come with an easily washable, removable cover that is waterproof and zips closed. This makes cleaning and maintaining them even more simple.

Crib Rails

A crib isn't complete without the proper set of rails that are fixed. While some cribs for babies offer baby rails with the crib however, some offer them on their own. If you choose to buy them on their own, make sure they meet all safety standards. They must, for instance, be free of loose or missing screws, brackets and other hardware. They should also be able to support the weight of your child, but not be too fragile. They should also be able be secured in a secure way to ensure that they are not removed from your child.

The best crib rails will not only be strong They should also fit comfortably within the frame of the crib. This will stop the mattress from becoming flimsy and potentially risky for your child. Make sure you measure the crib frame prior to purchasing the crib rail. There are slight variations in the crib sizes. The dimensions should be no more than three fingers.

It is also important to ensure that the crib rails do not contain any cutouts that are decorative or other embellishments. They could pose an suffocation threat. It is also recommended to avoid putting pillows, blankets, quilts and sheepskins on the crib, because they can cause the carbon dioxide build-up and increase your baby's risk of SIDS. If you want to include a soft sleep surface in the crib, consider a crib cover-and-pad combination. These are comprised of a waterproof mattress pad and a fitted "skirt" that can be positioned around the mattress just like the fitted sheet.

You'll also need to make sure that you have the proper crib rail guards. They are designed to cushion the baby's head when it comes into contact with the crib railings when you feed them or cradling them next to the bed. They also help prevent teeth marks and drool staining on the crib's fixed side railings.

You'll need an infant guardrail when your child outgrows their crib. This will keep them safely in the crib until they are ready to move into a larger bed. Sweetpea Baby has a convertible crib toddler guard rail that is compatible with most standard cribs. It is simple to install and meets the CPSC safety standards.

Crib Hardware

Certain crib design elements are purely aesthetic and are subject to individual preference, while others like the style of the slats on the crib or the possibility of it converting into a toddler bed -could have a significant impact on the ease of use of the crib as well as its longevity. The best cribs are made from solid wood, and meet multiple safety regulations, and can be easily configured to different mattress heights. Certain cribs come with special 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 with ornamental cut-outs or other ornaments that could snag on clothes or pose a choking risk for infants. Also, Cot sales make sure to check the crib's hardware frequently for loose bolts or objects that could get caught on clothing or other objects, and pose a hazard.

The best great crib sets (home-page) come with easy-to-follow instructions and all the necessary components, including hardware. The majority of modern cribs take half an hour or less to assemble, and a majority come with all the tools you'll require.

Look into a convertible crib that can be converted into a toddler bed, daybed or full-size mattress. This is a good option for families who intend to utilize the crib for a long period of years or have a limited space. It is important to remember, though, that some crib conversion kits require a second purchase to fully complete the process.

Crib hardware can be a bit difficult to grasp, but it's essential to ensure security and stability. Most cribs have a system of rectangular block wedges (also called "shims") and large chocks known as step chocks. They're all designed to tighten the contact points between crib and the supported surface.

Some shims and chocks may be made from soft woods, which crack slowly. This may give an audible warning prior to when they fail. However, woods that are more rigid may break more suddenly and with greater force. Plastic shims and chocks are also available, and can be installed more easily since they do not require drilling or screwing into the surface.
