No matter if you select a convertible or standard cot, the most important thing to ensure comfort is a good-quality mattress that is supportive and promotes a healthy posture.

The slats need to be firmly fixed to the frame, to ensure that your child will not get caught when they move during sleep.

Safety

A safe and secure sleeping environment is an essential consideration when choosing a crib. Make sure that the mattress is snugly fitted, with no gaps between it and the cot's bed's sides or ends (big gaps could keep your child's head from being caught in the arms). Make sure it's solid and thin - more thick mattresses aren't recommended, because they can increase the risk of SIDS. Many companies offer a range of mattresses, from simple foam to natural substances for allergy sufferers. Some contain anti-microbial treatments. If your cot features a drop-side, make sure it is secured and in the upward position.

Drop sides should only be allowed down only when an adult is in the room. This will prevent accidental release. Avoid placing your cheap cot bed on walls if it has a solid end. This will limit airflow, which could cause death in the coffin. Recent research suggests that slatted edges could be safer because they allow more airflow.

If your crib has a fixed edge choose this option as it will be safest when your baby starts to crawl and climb up. Once your child is confidently standing and climbing, it is a sign that they're ready to transition into the junior bed.

Some cots have a feature that allows the base to be raised to three levels. This is a fantastic security feature that allows your child's cot to grow with them. Other cots come with adjustable footplates, which are ideal for toddlers who wish to stand up in their bed.

Whenever you place your child in their cot, check whether there is no visible danger - it must be kept away from heaters, windows, power points and blind cords and curtains (these can be strangulation hazards). If you're buying second-hand or heirloom furniture Be sure to check for potential choking hazards like stickers and transfers that can be removed and pose danger.

If you're not sure about how to use your cot, consult other parents for advice or take part in a local NCT New Baby class. If your cot comes with an instruction manual, read it carefully before you start using it, and follow the safety-use guidelines carefully.
