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

The best crib sets come with everything you need for your newborn to rest comfortably from day one. They're pre-shrunk, machine washable and designed to fit tightly around the mattress, without bunching. This is a major safety hazard for babies.

One tester for parents said that she used hers for two babies, and then gave it to a friend. This made it a smart buy. Its sleek design makes it a great choice for minimalist nurseries.

Bedding

When it comes to crib bedding, there are a variety of options. It's not only about picking one that is in line with your style. You should also ensure that the bedding is fitted tightly and doesn't get tangled in places that could be the risk of choking your child. And it has to be soft to the touch and durable enough to stand up to months of blowouts in diapers and spit-up spills without wearing out too fast.

One of our top picks is this Avocado set, which contains two sheets made from 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton and MADE SAFE-certified. This is an independent third-party certification that guarantees the company's textiles meet rigorous standards for quality and safety. They're pre-shrunk so they won't shrink or stretch after washing, and they're designed to fit a standard crib mattress (27 1 The blanket's dimensions is 4 inches wide and 51 5/8 inches long. They're also machine-washable to clean the inevitable mess your little Baby Cot Bed is bound to make.

Another great option for newborns and toddlers is a crib mattress pad, which provides an additional layer of comfort and protects the mattress from accidents and stains. Choose a mattress cover which is less than one inch thick to allow your child to breathe. Avoid anything that is too fluffy or with bows, long ribbons or other ornaments. They can fall off and pose a strangulation hazard.

You should consider buying a convertible crib if you plan to keep your child in the crib for a long time. These cot beds typically convert to a toddler cheap cot bed and sometimes to a daybed or full-size bed, too. Some cribs come with required conversion kits included however, others require a purchase.

A few of our most-loved cribs include this Dream On Me Ashton 5-in-1 sleigh-style crib, which is made of solid wood and has 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 meaning it complies with strict environmental standards for reduced off gassing.

Mattress

When it comes to crib mattresses, firmness and sizing are essential. The AAP recommends a mattress that is firm which fits snugly, and does not leave an indentation on the surface when you place a sheet over it. The mattress should also be of the right size for the crib, and it should remain in place, even after your baby grows out of it.

In addition, you'll want to consider if the mattress is made from chemicals that could be harmful to your child. You should look for a mattress free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which release an unpleasant chemical smell. A good indicator is a certificate from CertiPUR-US, which certifies that the foam used in a mattress is made without Ozone depleters, PBDEs and TDCPP and TCEP flame retardants mercury, lead, and other heavy metals, formaldehyde, Phthalates that are regulated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, and volatile organic compounds.

Other aspects to consider are how much the mattress weighs and whether it's waterproof or not. A waterproof or wipeable surface is ideal for cleaning, since you'll be changing sheets at night. The Naturepedic Organic Cotton Classic 150 Seamless 2-Stage is the heaviest of the ones we tested at 20lbs which could be a nagging issue for certain parents.

Another aspect to be aware of is if the mattress is dual-sided; some of these have a firm infant side and the soft toddler side. Pediatricians suggest flipping the mattress once your child reaches the height of their normal growth, which is usually at around 12 months.

When we tested crib mattresses, we weighed them and looked at how they folded and moved to dress the sides with sheets. We also put an 8-pound weight which was slightly heavier than the weight of a newborn baby, on each mattress to observe how it responded. The top mattresses did not sink, meaning they provide enough support to prevent your child from falling over or suffocating in bed. Some of the mattresses we tested have a removable, machine-washable cover that is waterproof and zips shut. This makes cleaning and maintaining them simpler.

Crib Rails

A crib is not complete without the correct set of rails fixed. Some furniture companies for babies offer baby rails with the crib. Others sell them separately. If you decide to purchase the rails separately, ensure that they meet all safety standards. For instance, they must be free of any missing or loose screws, brackets and other hardware. They should also be able to support the weight of your child without becoming too flimsy. They should also be secured in a secure way so they can't be taken away by your child.

The crib rails need to not only be strong and sturdy, but they should also fit within the crib frame. This will stop the mattress from becoming too fragile, which could cause harm to your baby. When you purchase crib rails, be sure to examine the inside of the frame since there are slight variations in the sizes of cribs. The space should ideally be no more than three fingers.

You should also make sure that the crib rails don't include any cutouts with decorative designs or other embellishments. These can pose the risk of suffocation. You should also avoid placing pillows blankets, blankets, quilts or sheepskins in the crib, because they can cause the carbon dioxide build-up and increase the risk of SIDS. If you're looking to provide a soft sleep surface in the crib, you can try a crib pad-and-cover combination. These products consist of mattress pads with waterproof lining and an adjustable "skirt" that stretches around the mattress in the same way as an oversized sheet.

In the end, you'll need to find the best crib rail guards. They are designed to cushion the head of your child when it comes into contact with the crib railings as you feed him or her or cradling them on the bed. They also can help avoid teeth marks and drool discoloration on the crib's railings fixed.

When your child is no longer in the crib, you'll require a toddler guard rail to keep your child safely in their bed until they're ready to move on to an adult bed. Sweetpea Baby offers a convertible crib toddler rail that will work with most standard cribs beds. It's easy to install and is compliant with the safety standards of the CPSC.

Crib Hardware

Certain aspects of the crib's design are only aesthetic or otherwise subject to personal preference, but others--such as the style of slats, or whether the crib can be converted into an adult bed--can have a significant impact on the ease of use and the length of time the crib will last. The best cribs are constructed of solid wood, comply with numerous safety standards, and can be easily configured to different mattress heights. Some cribs have unique features which make them more efficient. For example the Quick Zip Crib Sheet allows you to replace the sheets without having to remove the entire mattress.

In general, you should avoid cribs with ornamental cut-outs or other ornaments which could get caught on clothes or create a choking risk for infants. Be sure to check the crib's hardware for loose bolts, as well as other items that could snag on objects or clothing.

The most effective crib sets come with simple instructions and all the essential components, like hardware. Modern cribs can be assembled within a half-hour or less, and the majority come with all of the necessary tools.

Look into a convertible crib that can be transformed into a daybed, toddler or full-size mattress. This is a good option for families who plan to use the crib for a number of years or have limited space. Be aware that some crib conversion kits require additional purchases in order to complete the process.

Crib hardware can be a bit difficult to grasp, but it's essential for security and stability. Most cribs come with a system of rectangular block wedges (also called "shims") and large chocks, also known as step chocks. They are all designed to strengthen the connections between the crib and the surface that supports it.

Some chocks and shims are made of soft woods which crack slowly, which can provide audible warnings before they fail as more robust wood materials could break abruptly and with more force. The shims and chocks are made of plastic and are also available for purchase. They are much easier to install, as they don't require drilling into the surface.
