It doesn't matter if you pick a conventional cot or a convertible the mattress is vital to your comfort. It should provide adequate support and encourage an ideal posture. The same applies to the slats, which must be secured and not bent or sagging. The slats must also be securely fixed to the frame so that your child doesn't get trapped in them while moving during sleep.

Safety

When choosing a cot a safe sleeping environment is a must. The mattress should be snugly fitted and there shouldn't be gaps between the mattress and the edges or sides of the cot or cot-bed (large gaps can restrict the child's arms or head). Make sure it's firm and thin - thicker mattresses aren't advised because they can increase the risk of SIDS. Many companies offer a choice of mattresses, from simple foam to natural substances for allergy sufferers. Some contain anti-microbial treatments. If your cot features drop-sides, make sure it is locked and in the upward position.

Drop sides should only be allowed to go to fall when an adult is present in the room. This will prevent accidental releases. Avoid placing your cot against a wall if it has a solid end. This could hinder airflow and could cause death in the coffin. Recent research suggests that slatted ends could be safer since they allow for more airflow.

If your crib has a fixed side you should choose this because it is the most secure option when your child begins to crawl and then pull themselves up. When your child is confidently standing and climbing, it is a sign that they are ready to transition into a junior bed.

Some cots have a feature that allows the base to be raised up to three levels. This is a great safety measure and enables your child's cot to expand with their needs. Some cots also have adjustable footplates, which are great for toddlers who want to stand up in their bed.

When placing your child's cot ensure there aren't any obvious dangers. It should be put away from power and heater points. Also, keep it away from windows, curtains and blind cords. These can all pose a strangulation risk. If you are buying second-hand furniture or heirlooms, make sure to look out for dangers to your child's health such as stickers and transfers. These can peel off and create a risk.

If you're not sure how to use your cot safely, ask parents around or go to an local NCT New Baby course for assistance and guidance. If your cot comes with an instruction manual, read it carefully before you start using it, and follow the safe-use instructions closely.

Storage
