Safety

The choice of the best crib for newborns is crucial to your baby's health and wellbeing. It is important to ensure that the crib meets the current safety standards and is free of hazards that may harm your baby while they sleep. It should be sturdy and well-constructed, with no loose parts that could get caught on clothing or create dangers of choking. It is crucial to follow the directions of the manufacturer to set up and use the crib and to check the crib regularly.

Check the distance between the slats. It shouldn't be more than 2 and 3/4 inches to avoid your baby being able to get their head or legs trapped between them. You should be capable of seeing and reaching your baby's crib. If you aren't, the slats should be broader and not as close together.

The mattress support system is a different aspect to consider when choosing the crib. It should be adjustable to different levels so that you can lower the mattress as your baby grows. This will decrease the risk of your baby climbing out of the crib, which is a common event as they begin to crawl.

Other safety features to look for include the fitted sheet that is able to fit the mattress with ease and an enduring and solid construction. You should also choose a crib with fixed sides instead of one with drop sides which could be hazardous for your baby. You should also share the same room as your baby until they are old enough to sleep alone.

Also, ensure that the crib is positioned away from radiators and windows and that any hanging objects such as curtains or blind cords are not within reach. It is also recommended to remove any objects that could pose a choking hazard, such as blankets or pillows. Be cautious of buying second-hand cribs, because they may not have met the safety standards of today or been recalled for different reasons.

Design

While cribs might appear identical, it is crucial to remember that every crib must meet strict safety guidelines.

For example, most have circular bars that don't have any gaps or rough areas that could catch or squeeze babies. We also tested and rated each crib on how easily it was to use and assemble. More components can cause confusion, so we recommend choosing a crib that comes with a few easy-to-follow directions to avoid frustration.
