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

The best crib sets (sneak a peek at this site) come with everything you need for your infant to sleep soundly from the first day. They're pre-shrunk, machine washable and designed to fit snugly around the mattress without bunching--a significant safety risk for babies.

One parent tester said that she used it through two babies and then passed it to a relative, making it a smart purchase. Its sleek design makes it a good option for nurseries with minimalist designs.

Bedding

There are plenty of options to choose from when it comes down to bedding for your crib. However, picking the right bedding is more than picking a cute pattern to match your aesthetic; you also want something that is firmly fitted and doesn't get clumped into places that could be a suffocation hazard for your baby. It must also be soft to the touch and durable enough to endure months of diaper blowouts and spit-up without wearing out too fast.

This set from Avocado is one of our top picks. It comes with two sheets that are made from 100% certified organic GOTS cotton. The fabrics are MADE SAFE certified, an independent third party certification that ensures that the products of the company are in compliance with strict standards for quality and safety. The sheets are pre-shrunk to ensure that they don't shrink or stretch after washing. They also fit a standard crib bed (27 1 cots 4 tots inches wide by 51 5/8 inches long). They're also machine washable for the inevitable mess your little baby is bound to make.

A crib mattress pad is a ideal option for babies and toddlers. It provides an additional layer of comfort and shields the mattress from spills and stains. Choose mattresses that are less than an inch thick, so your child can breathe easily. Avoid things that are too soft or has long ribbons, bows and other adornments that could detach and pose the risk of strangulation.

If you're planning to keep your baby in a crib for a long time, consider buying a convertible crib. They typically convert to a toddler bed, and occasionally to full-size cot beds for sale or a daybed also. Some cribs come with required conversion kits included, but others require a separate purchase.

A few of our most-loved cribs include this Dream On Me Ashton 5-in-1 crib in a sleigh style, which is made of solid wood and has one of the highest mattress heights (for parents who are concerned about reaching down to a mattress that's low). We also love that it's Greenguard Gold certified, meaning it complies with stringent environmental standards to reduce off-gassing.

Mattress

When it comes to crib mattresses, firmness and size are essential. The AAP recommends a firm mattress which fits snugly, and doesn't leave an indentation on the surface when you put a sheet over it. The mattress should be the appropriate size for the crib and remain in place even after your child has grown out of it.

You should also determine if the mattress contains substances that could harm your child. Choose mattresses that are odorless and free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)--which typically emit a unpleasant chemical smell. CertiPUR US certification is a good indicator. It confirms that the foam used in the mattress is free of ozone depleters as well as other harmful chemicals.

Other things to think about include how much weight the mattress is weighing and whether it's waterproof or not. A mattress that is waterproof or able to be cleaned is ideal for cleaning, since you'll be changing sheets at night. The Naturepedic Organic Cotton Classic 150 Seamless 2Stage is the heaviest product we've tested, weighing at 20 pounds. This may be a problem for certain parents.

A dual-sided mattress may have a firm side for infants and a softer side for toddlers. Pediatricians suggest flipping the mattress when your child is at the peak of their normal growth, which is usually about 12 months.

When we tested crib mattresses, we measured them and observed how they folded and moved to dress the sides with sheets. We also placed a weight of 8 pounds which was slightly heavier than the weight of a newborn Baby Crib, on each mattress to observe how it responded. The top mattresses did not sink into the mattress this means they offer enough support to protect your child from falling out of the their bed during sleep or drowning. A few of the mattresses we tried have an easily washable, removable cover that is waterproof and zips closed. This makes cleaning and maintaining them more simple.

Crib Rails

A crib can't be complete without the proper set of fixed rails. Some baby furniture companies offer baby rails with the crib. Others sell them separately. If you opt to purchase them separately, look for ones that meet the safety requirements. For instance, they should be free of missing or loose screws, brackets, and other hardware. They should also be able to support the weight of your child without being too fragile. They should also be able lock securely in place to ensure that they are not removed from your child.

The crib rails you choose should not only be strong, they should also fit comfortably within the crib frame. This will keep the mattress from being too fragile, which could cause harm to your baby. When purchasing crib rails, be sure to measure the inside of the frame, as there are slight variations in crib sizes. The ideal space should not be more than three fingers wide.

It is also important to make sure the crib rails are devoid of decorative cut-outs and other adornments which could be suffocation hazards. Avoid placing pillows blankets, blankets, Cribs (Daoqiao.Net) quilts, and sheepskins in the crib, as these can contribute to a dangerous carbon dioxide build-up and increase the risk of SIDS. If you're looking to provide a soft sleeping surface in the crib, you can try a crib pad and cover combination. They consist of mattress pads with a waterproof lining and an adjustable "skirt" that stretches around the mattress like an oversized sheet.

You'll also need to make sure you have the right crib rail guards. These are designed to cushion your Baby Crib's head if it falls on the crib railings while feeding or cradling him or her on the bed. They can also help prevent the formation of marks from teeth and drool on the crib's fixed railings.

When your child is no longer in the crib, you'll require a toddler guard rail to ensure your child's safety in the crib until they're ready for a bigger bed for their child. Sweetpea Baby has a convertible crib toddler guard rail that works with the majority of cribs. It's easy to install and is compliant with the safety standards of the CPSC.

Crib Hardware

Some crib design features are only aesthetic and are subject to personal preference, however other features -- like the style of the slats on the crib or whether it converts into a toddler bedcould have a significant impact on the user-friendliness of the crib as well as its durability. The best cribs are constructed of solid wood, comply with various safety standards, and can be easily adapted to different mattress heights. Certain cribs have unique features that make them more efficient like the Quick Zip Crib Sheet, which allows you to swap the sheets without taking the entire mattress from the crib.

You should avoid cribs with decorative cutouts, or other accessories, as they could snag on clothing or pose a risk of choking for children. Examine the crib's hardware for loose bolts and other items that could snag on clothing or objects.

The most effective crib sets come with easy-to-follow directions as well as all the required components, like hardware. The majority of modern cribs take half-hour or less to put together and a majority come with all the equipment you'll need.

Think about a convertible crib that can be transformed into a toddler, daybed or full-size mattress. This can be a smart purchase for families who intend to keep the crib for a number of years or who have little space in their homes. You should be aware that some crib conversion kits require additional purchases to complete the process.

Crib hardware can be a bit tricky to understand but it's vital to ensure safety and stability. Most cribs feature the rectangular blocks and wedges (also known as "shims"), and large chocks called step chocks. They're all designed to secure the contact points between the crib and its support surface.

Some shims and chocks are made from soft woods that break slowly, and can give warnings that sound before they fail and more rigid wood materials can break up suddenly and with more force. Plastic shims and chocks are also available, which can be installed more easily since they don't require drilling or screwing into the surface.
