Safety

A secure sleeping space is essential and a big factor when selecting a crib. Make sure the mattress fits snugly, with no gap between it and the cot's bed sides or ends (big gaps could trap your child's head or arms). Verify that the mattress is firm and thin.

Also, keep it away from windows, curtains, and blind cords. These can all create strangulation risks. If you're buying furniture that is second-hand or an heirloom, check for choking hazards like stickers and transfers that may be removed and pose danger.
