You're safe

Bedside cots, or co-sleepers as they are often referred to they are specially designed infant sleep solutions that allow babies to sleep near their parents without the threat of SIDS. They're similar to Moses baskets or the standard baby cot, but they fasten to the the parent's bed and feature one open side, which allows parents to easily access their newborn baby. They're ideal for families who wish to enjoy the benefits of co-sleeping, but are concerned about the risks associated with bed sharing.

Many people are concerned about the safety and effectiveness of the bassinet or bedside sleeper. However, CHOICE found that these products, when used correctly are safe and cause fewer injuries and accidents. They're also a great option for new parents who are struggling with the exhaustion that is often associated with night feeds and early morning diaper changes. You can keep an eye on the baby and soothe them if needed.

It is also recommended to purchase a fitted mattress that will fit your mattress as well as a nappies changing kit with waterproof covers and a mat with wipes.

They could have been damaged, recalled or do not meet the safety standards.

A quality bedside crib will be simple to put together and can be taken apart for storage. Some models come with adjustable incline positions, which make it easier for babies to sleep in a raised position, or for parents who suffer from reflux. Some models come with a bag for travel so you can easily pack them up and take them on your journey.

It's easy to clean

The appropriate products make it simple to clean cots for bed. Start by removing any bedding such as sheets, blankets or cuddly toys, and then washing them according to the instructions of the manufacturer. Clean the cot thoroughly including the mattress. Pay particular attention to the corners and crevices. Mattress protectors are also a good idea to help reduce the build-up of dust mites and other bacteria.


Next, clean the cot with a soft cloth dampened with baby-safe cleaner or a natural stain-removing spray. Use a clean, fresh cloth regularly to rinse off soapy residue and keep the surface as clean as possible. If the mattress is stained you can use a soft scrub brush to clean them and a bit of baking soda to help eliminate the lingering odours. Always test a small section of the mattress first to make sure the cleaning product is safe for your child.

If the cot is disassembled, it is easier to reach all of its surfaces and corners for thorough cleaning and sanitizing. You can even make a solution using warm water and mild baby-safe detergent to wash the mattress and its protector.

If your cot is constructed of wood, you can clean it using a mixture warm vinegar and water. This natural disinfectant kills bacteria, without damaging the wood or leaving harmful residues. Test the solution on a small portion of wood to ensure it won't damage it. Apply the solution using a soft clean cloth, then allow it to dry before taking it apart again.

Some cribs even convert into full cribs when your child gets older, giving you added durability and value.

The Shnuggle Air on the side of the crib is another lightweight option that was shortlisted for 2021's Best Cot Crib, Cot or Moses Basket category at the Mother&Baby awards. Another mom, Gulhan Arapoglu, agrees that it's easy to move and believes it's durable too. She does add that it's a bit bigger than other cradles for bed and is not recommended for infants that might roll or flip.
