bedside rocking crib crib and travel cot; Northwestu explains,

Bedside cribs are a cot with a bassinet style that is attached to the side of your bed. They typically come with a side that can be lowered down for easy access, and some have an incline setting that's perfect for babies who have reflux.

MFM tester Georgina said that the crib was simple to put together and the directions were extremely easy to follow. It was a fast construction. It folds down to a compact size and comes with a handy bag for traveling.

Easy to assemble

Bedside cribs are typically easy to set up, and are on the smaller side so they can be easily tucked away beside your bed. They also tend to be lighter, making them more portable. Georgina who was one of the MFM's home testers said that the Maxi-Cosi Lora was "super easy to assemble with clear instructions and zips that are easy to open." The crib can also be used as a travel cot and comes with a handy bag for when you're on the move. It includes multiple mesh openings to allow ventilation and its height adjustable allows it to fit any mattress.

Some bedside cribs feature the option of a side panel that can be adjusted to allow you to be able to easily reach your baby without stepping out of the bed. This is a great solution for breastfeeding mums or parents who want to be close to their baby all night long but do not want to risk co-sleeping (which is associated with an increased risk of SIDS).

Most models come with a built-in function that allows you to rock your baby. This can be a soothing experience for your baby and help them to fall asleep. Some cribs have a recline position that can be helpful in the case of reflux or colic. It is best to use them under supervision, and a health professional or a GP should be consulted prior to trying this position.

A lot of cribs with a bedside have a canopy to shield your baby from sound or light. This can help in calming your baby down. Some cribs come with an under-bed storage space which is ideal for storing extra blankets, diapers and clothing for your child.

Many cribs for twin bedside cot use can be converted into toddler beds or standalone cots. This is a key selling feature for a lot of families. MFM's 2021 Mother&Baby Awards winner, the Joie Roomie Go for instance, comes with removable side panels as well as conversion kits and tilting tummies that make it suitable for travel. It also has five different height settings to match your bed, and was loved by our MFM home testers for being simple to put together, comfortable and compact. The Graco Play Yard (also known as a pack and play) is another popular choice and was shortlisted for the 2022 Mother&Baby Awards.

Cosy and comfy

A bedside crib with changing table crib lets you to keep an eye on your child from the comfort of your own bed. It's a great choice for new mums recovering from a C-section since you can easily carry your baby towards you to feed them at the night or change their nappies without getting out of your bed. The most cozy cribs have mesh sides that let you observe your baby's growth.

Some cribs lower the barrier completely, allowing the convenience of co-sleeping without the risk (check that your chosen model is in compliance with the most recent safety standards though). Some cribs let you lower the barrier and then pop it up again after you lift the baby out. This is ideal for parents concerned about their child's ability to roll off their mattress.

The Luah - which won the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards Best Crib, Cot or Moses Basket - is designed to attach to bedsteads as well as divan beds, however it does require a few more straps than some other models (check the specifications to make certain your bed is able to accommodate). The spacious design comes with an opening side panel, a patent-pending perforated bottom that creates air cushioning to improve air flow. In addition, there's an integrated reflux setting and the 360 swivel, that allows you to turn the crib to fit your baby's position.

If you're looking for something little smaller the Tutti Bambini CoZee is a different stylish option, with oak legs and stylish fabrics that will match your decor. It's also extremely easy to assemble as Georgina, who took part in our MFM tests, put it together speedily and didn't even need to read the instructions. It's also a great travel cot. It folds flat and can be popped into a bag.

The Next2me Magic, shortlisted for Best Cot, Crib, or Moses Basket in the 2021 Mother&Baby Awards, has a larger size but is still compact and easy to attach to your bed. Georgina also found it easy to assemble although she thought the instructions could have been clearer regarding the zips.

Easy to clean

Look for cribs with mattress covers which can be washed in the machine when you are looking at cribs for bed or travel cots. That will help you keep it clean from leaky nappies, sick babies and drips. It's important to choose one that is easily disassembled and dismantled in parts, so that you can access all the nooks and crannies to conduct an extensive cleaning and sanitising.

This is important, as it's the best way to make sure that all dirt and germs have been eliminated. It is also important to ensure that the sides of the crib are securely connected, ensuring there are no gaps or areas that your child could slip down or become trapped.

You'll also need to ensure that the crib is easy to clean and it fits with your bed. This is particularly crucial if you're using a bedside crib to cot crib to facilitate co-sleeping. These cribs are designed to be attached securely to the parent's side, allowing parents to have easy access to their infant throughout the night to feed and comfort their baby while still ensuring the security that separate sleeping areas provide.

Another thing to consider when selecting a crib for your bed is whether it has any extra features you might consider useful. For example, some have the capability to rock (useful for fussy sleepers) or tilt - although keep in mind that you should use this feature with care as it could be risky if your child falls out.

It is also important to make sure that your crib or travel cot has a firm and flat mattress that is able to fit snugly into the frame. This will reduce the chance of SIDS because your baby's head and feet won't fall into any gaps or folds in the bedding.

It's a good idea to buy a new mattress for the crib or travel cot rather than use one that was passed down or bought second-hand. Mattresses that have been used are more susceptible to lose their shape over time and increase the risk of SIDS. All cribs new to market must be compliant with BS EN1130:2019. This is the most current standard that introduces stricter requirements to ensure secure and efficient sleep solutions.

Versatile

A bedside crib (or co-sleeping crib, as they're sometimes known) attaches to your bed to allow you to easily reach your baby at night without having to leave your own sleeping area. They can also be used as standalone cribs during the daytime. The majority of cribs have a side panel which can be adjusted to let you be able to see your baby and hold him. Some cribs allow you to keep the side panel in place at night. This lets you be close and convenient with your baby, while minimising the risk of sharing a bed. Some cribs can be converted into a travel cot, or include additional features such as tilting, rocking (use with caution, remember to speak to your GP regarding this) or changing into a baby cot for older children or playpen.

The SnuzPod 4 is a consistently popular crib and it's not only about its sleek Scandi aesthetic. This crib comes with six height settings, as well as a handy shelf for storage. It's also a little larger and heavier than some of our cribs that are more suitable for travel and comes in a convenient bag to keep it free of dust and clean when it's stored.

The instructions are simple and there's a handy toolkit included to assist you. It is also easy to clean using an easy-to-clean mattress cover and breathable fabric. It comes with a few more amenities than other cribs for bed we've tested including an anti-reflux incline, a rocking function, and a storage pocket.

Jasmin says that this is a fantastic crib since it's "easy to reach baby during the night to feed him without fuss and it's larger than many Moses baskets, which means it will last longer before my son outgrows it". She also loves how easy it is to clean and feels solid and well-made. It's also designed to fit on a divan, which makes it a great option for those who have small space. It also comes with a handy bag that you can carry on your travels. A perfect all-rounder.
