Size, price and safety are all crucial elements but the most important thing is that your child sleeps in a safe manner. Bedside cribs let parents keep their infant close by during the night, which promotes bonding and provides a soothing nighttime routine. Parents can respond to their infant's needs without having to leave their bed. Keep babies close to parents. This lowers the risk of SIDS. A safe crib for bed should have several safety features. This includes a sturdy mattress that is tightly pressed against the crib's sides and there are no gaps through which your child could get trapped. Another important feature is a durable mesh that is resistant to chewing, and is free of holes or tears. Finally, be sure to adhere to the manufacturer's guidelines for weight limits to avoid your child from being trapped or hurt. It is important to ensure that your crib for baby's bed is in compliance with all safety standards. You should also register your crib to be informed of recalls.

NHS Safe Sleeping Advice recommends that your infant sleep in a separate nursery crib or bassinet within your bedroom for the first six months to avoid the risk of suffocation and overheating due to sharing a bed. While co-sleeping can have many benefits that include a less stressful breastfeeding experience and bonding with your child but it also increases the risk of overheating and injury from falling on the baby.
