Safety

If you are looking for a travel cot, ensure that the manufacturer is adhering to all safety standards. The Consumer Product Safety Commission's (CPSC) website is a good place to begin. It will tell you if a portable crib has ever been recalled. Pick a mattress that's suitable for the crib of your baby so it won't fall through the gaps or pose the risk of suffocation.

Search for bassinets and cribs that are in line with the latest safety standards of 2022. You should also avoid cribs with a long history or cribs that have been modified, or drop side cribs that are used for travel as they have not been tested and could pose a risk to your baby's well-being.

A travel crib must be built well and strong. Make sure you check for broken, missing or loose screws as well as other hardware. If you're using a playard, it should have a secure wall and mesh windows for adequate air flow. The crib slats shouldn't be more than 2 3/8 inches apart to prevent the baby's head and legs from getting trapped. Also, do not put blankets, pillows or toys with stuffed animals in the crib. These objects can choke or strangle your baby. They should be removed from the crib as soon as your child is able push up on their hands and knees or prior to 5 months of age or 5 months, whichever is first.

Make sure you check regularly for loose or broken screws and other hardware. This is especially important when traveling with an infant. Make sure to remove all crib furniture before use, as well.

If you're using a portable crib, be sure it's not close to windows. Windows pose an injury risk for falls and if your baby falls into it, they could be injured. cots4tots.co.uk 's recommended to keep your baby's room away from windows, even if they are old enough to roll over. If your child begins to roll over during sleep it's a good idea to wake them up to prevent injuries.

Portability

These portable cribs are simple to build and compact when closed, and feature the most comfortable padded mattress that can hold newborns up to 15kg.

MFM home testers appreciate the BabyBjorn travel crib because it's simple to fold and to store. Its easy drop down panels that can be operated by one hand are also easy to use for parents who are tired. It's not the tiniest of packs-and-play on our list however it's a decent weight at just a little over 15 pounds. It has regular carry handles instead of an e-bag strap, which some find more comfortable to haul around.

The Joie Kubbie Sleep is another great alternative. It incorporates a bedside bassinet as well as a crib into a compact unit. This is ideal for overnight stays during holidays and with friends and family. It is not the cheapest alternative however it has various features, including an organizer basket as well as calming lights for the night that change colour and lullabies, as well as white noise, to help your child sleep.

Feeding


It is essential that your child is safe and secure when you travel, whether on pleasure or business. While some families might be inclined to use a crib or bassinet that they own but it's better to purchase one specifically designed for travel. They are smaller and come with mesh sides that allow parents to monitor their child without disturbing them. They're also light for easy transportation between destinations. These also meet the safety standards of American Academy of Pediatrics and have not been recalled.

If you have to use a crib that is placed at your bedside it is recommended that your infant be laid on their backs and that the bed be free of pillows, blankets and animals stuffed. Co-sleeping can increase the risk of SIDS. If you must occasionally co-sleep, make sure that your baby is sleeping and that both you and your partner are dressed and awake.

There are many kinds of cribs for babies and newborns.

Some are shaped as a mini-crib or Moses basket, while others have sides that can be lowered into the parent's beds. This allows parents to reach their baby in the middle of the night to soothe and feed them, while avoiding the dangers of sleeping with their child. The AAP warns against this due to the danger of being suffocated. The Arm's Reach Clear-Vue Bassinet is a bedside sleeper which attaches to a parent's mattress. This is a good option for older children, since the sides can be elevated so that you can reach the infant without having to lift them from the bed. Another option is the travel cot, which has an integrated bassinet that can be removed from the top of the crib, making it easier to lift up a sleeping infant for feeding or other care.

Sleeping

Bedside cribs let you sleep peacefully with your baby. They are placed near your bed, allowing you to easily reach them for night feedings and check on their sleeping without disrupting them. Some cribs have an opening on the side that can be lowered to make this easier and others come with an adjustable height to make sure they be able to fit in your bed at home or when you are away.

While it was once recommended that babies sleep in their own separate bedroom, there is now a increasing preference for parents to co-sleep with their infants. Also known as rooming-in this arrangement allows babies to be close to their parents, but remain safely separated on their own bassinet or crib. There are a variety of co-sleepers available like the iCrib, an iCrib-style portable crib that can be placed on the top of a bed, or a crib. This model has a lightweight frame, a mattress that is removable and is foldable into a compact size for storage. The Joie Roomie Go crib is another option. It is attached to the bed's edge and has seven height positions and a tummy-tilt to help with colic and reflux. Our MFM home testers loved the crib for its compact folding and ease of use. It's also available in different colours.

There are also freestanding bedside cribs such as our Lilly or Alain that you can place next to a standard bed frame. The cribs have a side barrier that can be lowered to allow you to pick up your baby for feedings at night. However, the cribs are self-contained, allowing your baby to rest comfortably. These cribs meet the latest BS EN1130:2019 safety standards that require a 120mm barrier between your mattress and the child's cot.

Lastly, there are cribs designed for travel and are designed to be taken on the road. They are usually smaller and more compact than a standard crib and are therefore easy to transport into and out of cars and hotels. Munchkin Brica, for example can be assembled in less than one minute and folded down in less than three pounds. It is therefore simple to lift and move.
