Most bedside cribs feature a panel which can be lowered so that you can be able to monitor your baby's health during the night.

A lowered panel will also reduce the risk of your child falling over the edge of the bed. A lot of these panels have mesh sides that stop pillows and duvets from falling into the crib. This is essential to reduce the risk of SIDS. Babies who roll off their backs are more likely to suffocate.
