Safety

A safe sleeping environment is essential and a big consideration when choosing a bed. The mattress should be able to fit snugly and there shouldn't be gaps between the mattress and the sides or ends of the cot or cot-bed (large gaps could trap the child's arms or head). Make sure the mattress is not too firm and thin. Mattresses that are too thick could increase the risk of SIDS. There are many companies that offer mattresses made of different materials, from foam to natural materials that are great for allergy sufferers. Some have anti-microbial treatment. If your mattress has an inclined side, make sure it is in the up position and secured.

A drop side should only be allowed to drop only when an adult is present - this prevents accidental release. If your cot has a solid end be sure to avoid placing it against the wall because this will restrict airflow and could cause death in the coffin. According to the latest research, cots with slatted edges are safer since they allow for more airflow.

Also be sure to keep it away from windows, curtains and blind cords. These can all create strangulation risks. When 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.
