Newborn Bedside Cot

A newborn bedside cot is a compact sleeper that allows newborns to sleep in the same room as their parents without the risks of true co-sleeping (which the AAP cautions against due suffocation and SIDS). It helps you care for your baby and give them a bottle during the night.

This sleeper has a sturdy mattress to help babies' backs and minimize the risk of SIDS. It can be swiveled over your adult bed to raise your baby to cuddle them at sunrise or during late night nursing.

Budget

A bedside crib with wheels cot, also known as a co-sleeper, is a bassinet-style baby cot that is attached or clipped to your existing bed. This lets you reach your baby comfortably and safely for a mid-night feed, comforting, or cuddles. These are great for new parents and mums recovering after a c section because they allow easy access to the baby without having to get up from the bed.

There are a variety of styles available, from the simple ones with a drop down side to more sophisticated ones with multiple adjustment options, including incline or height. The majority of them can be converted to an independent crib once your baby gets older and has a longer sleep time at night.

One of our favourites is the Maxi-Cosi Lora that was shortlisted for the 2021 Mother&Baby awards, including Best Cot Crib, Best Cot, or Moses Basket. MFM home tester Emily noted how stylish and modern the design was. She also liked the fact that it could be used as a bassinet, or attached to your existing bed for a safe side-by-side sleep. She also appreciated the soft mattress, which has passed our test for firmness and the fact that it features a manual rocking function that can be set to a slight incline for those suffering from reflux.

She didn't like that it had a non mesh panel at the bottom and considered it too bulky to move around from room to room. She also found it to be a bit heavy to carry up and down the stairs when folded into a bag for travel.

Size

A bedside cot is essentially a bassinet-style cot that fixes to your side of the bed. It allows you to easily reach your newborn for middle-of-the-night feeding nappies, feeding and comforting. It's ideal for mothers recovering from a c-section.

The NHS and Lullaby Trust recommend that you keep your baby away from you in the first six months, to lower the risk of SIDS. The bedside crib with its low sides is a great method to accomplish this. It allows you to be able to easily access your baby during the night.

It is essential that your baby is sleeping on a firm and not an extremely soft mattress. A mattress that is soft increases the risk of suffocation among infants as they lack the motor control needed to turn. The breathable fabric and skin-friendly materials make the mattress comfortable for your baby but also firm enough for safety.

Mum Jasmin was delighted that the crib didn't take up much space in her room and thought it was the perfect size for a newborn. She also said that the mattress was also good quality, unlike some that feel flimsy and thin. She also likes the fact that it has a storage area beneath for blankets and clothes - something she says many other bassinets lack.

Mehack Mehack, an MFM mum who tested the product at home, loves that you can remove the side wall to allow easier access to your baby. She also loves the fact that the legs can be put under the bed to make it appear less bulky and take up less space on the floor. She's also impressed with how easy it is to move around the house whenever you want to, for convenience during middle-of-the-night meals and check-ins.

The CoZee Air crib is a favourite among parents. It was awarded the Gold Award in the 2021 Mother and Baby Awards. It has a clever design with four pulleys built-in to raise or lower the crib and includes a large storage basket for your baby's toys, blankets and other essentials. It is also lightweight and easy to assemble, making it ideal to travel with your baby.

Safety

When selecting a newborn bedside rocking crib cot, it is important to keep the safety of your baby in your mind. Official safe sleep advice from both the Lullaby Trust and NHS recommends that babies should not be sleeping in the bed of their parents due to the dangers of suffocation, overheating and a higher risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Bassinets for bedside use allow parents to keep their newborns close to them, facilitating nighttime feedings as well as monitoring without having to get up.

This close proximity can also help breastfeeding mothers as it lets them attend to the baby's needs while they sleep. This can help to maintain the supply of milk and encourage breastfeeding. Some cots for bedside cot for twins use adjustable height features that make it easier for the mother and child to reach the bassinet to feed or take care of other needs throughout the night.

Many bassinets come with a mattress that is designed to decrease the chance of suffocation and conforms to industry standards. It is essential to provide support for the bones of a newborn, as they are still soft and are not fully formed. The mattress should be covered with a fitted sheet to reduce the risk that dust mites, or other allergens, will suffocate a child. It should be kept clean and free of allergens.

Some cribs on the bed can be tilted. This is useful for babies who have reflux or digestive problems. However, this should only be done gently and with care. Avoid putting pillows, duvets or padded crib bumpers inside the bassinet. These could create the risk of suffocation to your baby.

It is also recommended to consider the bassinet with a secure attachment system. It can be attached to your bed without the need for tools. This can be especially helpful for parents who may struggle to get their child in and out of the crib or concerned about the possibility of falling asleep. If your bassinet is equipped with a secure attachment system it's a good idea to regularly make sure it's secure and that there aren't any gaps or loose components that could cause danger.

Comfort

If you're a soon-to-be parent, the comfort of your child is among your top concerns. There's a brand new sleep solution that allows you to keep your baby close to you at night, without the danger of sharing a bed. The baby bedside cot is essentially a bassinet-style cot that is attached to the bed's side and allows you to move them towards you for night feeding and soothing. It's also a great choice for mums recovering from a c-section as it reduces the need to bend down too far or even get out of the bed.

Modern cots for infants should be fitted with a firm, flat mattress to promote safe sleeping habits and lower the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Bedding should be simple with just a cot sheet and a blanket that is tightly tucked on the bottom. Avoid toys, bumpers and pillows that can be thrown over your baby, creating an obstructive risk. If your baby is used to being swaddled during a few weeks, you can use either an swaddle or baby sleep bag. However, this should be removed once they have the strength to unwrap them.

Some cribs with a bedside have a removable or drop-down side for easy access to your baby's feeds and comforting. This feature is perfect for parents who wish to keep a close relationship with their child while adhering to NHS sleep guidelines. If you're planning to sleep with your child, it's crucial to be aware that this practice could increase the chance of SIDS. This is particularly true if a parent accidentally is able to roll their infant over during sleep.

A breathable fabric will keep your baby comfy and cool throughout the night. This is especially important if you plan to sleep with your baby, as the risk of overheating increases when you sleep. The SnuzPod4 features an exclusive breathable side panel that helps improve the flow of air, keeping your baby warm.
