Crib Sets - Everything You Need For Your Newborn to Sleep Soundly From Day One

The best crib (linked site) sets come with everything you need for your infant cot bed to rest comfortably from the beginning. They are already shrunk and machine washable. They are designed to fit comfortably around the mattress, without the risk of bunching, which is a serious danger for infants.

Bedding

There are many options to choose from when it comes down to bedding for your crib. It's not only about picking a pattern that matches your style. You also want to ensure that the bedding is tightly fitted and doesn't gather in areas that could create a choking hazard for your child. It is important to choose a soft and durable material to withstand blowouts from diapers spit up and other messes over the course of months without wearing out.

This set from Avocado is one of our favorite. It comes with two sheets made with 100% GOTS certified organic cotton. The sheets are MADE SAFE certified, an independent third party certification that ensures that the products of the company meet rigorous standards for quality and safety. They're pre-shrunk, which means they won't shrink or stretch after washing, and are designed to fit on a standard crib mattress (27 1 4 inches wide by 51 5/8 inches long). The blankets can be washed to clean up the inevitable mess that your little bundle is likely to make.

Another option for infants and toddlers is crib mattress pads which adds an extra layer of comfort while protecting the mattress from spills and staining. Find a mattress pad that's less than an inch thick so your child is able to breathe easily. Avoid anything too fluffy or with long bows, ribbons and other adornments. These could fall off and pose an injury to strangulation.

If you're planning to keep your baby in the crib for a considerable amount of time, you should consider purchasing a convertible crib. These cot beds can be transformed into a toddler bed, and sometimes even a daybed or full-size. Some cribs include the conversion kits, while others require an extra purchase.

This Dream On Me Ashton 5 in 1 crib is one of our top picks. It's made of solid wood and features one of the highest mattress heights (for parents who are worried about getting on the mattress from a low position). We also love that it's Greenguard Gold certified, meaning it meets stringent environmental standards to prevent off-gassing.

Mattress

Size and firmness are essential when it comes to a crib mattress. The AAP recommends a firm mattress that is comfortable and doesn't leave an indentation on the surface when you place sheets over it. The mattress should be the proper size for the crib, and it should stay in place--even after your baby grows out of it.

You'll also want to check whether the mattress has chemicals that may harm your child. Choose mattresses that are odorless and free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)--which often emit an unpleasant chemical smell. A good sign is a certificate from CertiPUR-US, which certifies that the mattress's foam is free of Ozone depleters, PBDEs, TDCPP and TCEP flame retardants mercury, lead, and other heavy metals, formaldehyde, phthalates regulated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, and volatile organic compounds.

You'll likely have to deal with changing sheets at night and having a surface that is waterproof or wipeable will make cleaning easier. The Naturepedic Organic Cotton Classic 150 Seamless 2-Stage is the most heavy of the ones we tested at 20 lbs that could be a turnoff for certain parents.

Another aspect to be aware of is whether the mattress is dual-sided. Some include a firm side for infants and a soft toddler side. Pediatricians suggest flipping the mattress once your child has reached the height of their normal growth, which is usually around 12 months.

We measured the mattresses and then observed how they could be folded easily to cover the sides of the crib with sheets. We also put an 8-pound weight, slightly heavier than that of a newborn baby, on each mattress to determine how it reacts. The top mattresses did not sink, meaning they offer enough support to keep your child from falling off or being suffocated in bed. Some of the mattresses that we tested had a removable cover that can be machine-washed and is waterproof. This makes cleaning and maintaining them even simpler.

Crib Rails

A crib can't be complete without the right set of fixed rails. Some baby furniture companies offer baby rails with the crib. Others offer them separately. If you opt to buy them separately, search for ones that meet the safety requirements. For example, they should be free of missing or loose screws, brackets or other hardware. They should be sturdy enough to hold your child's weight but not be too thin. They should also be able to lock securely into place so they are not able to be removed by your child.

The right crib rails will not only be strong but they must also fit comfortably within the crib frame. This will prevent the mattress from becoming flimsy and potentially hazardous for your child. Be sure to measure the width of the crib frame before purchasing the crib rail. There are some slight differences in the sizes of the crib. The area should be no wider than three fingers.

Also, you should ensure that the crib rails are devoid of cut-outs for decorative purposes and other adornments, which can be potential dangers for suffocation. Avoid placing quilts, pillows or blankets in the crib. These can cause a dangerous accumulation of carbon dioxide, increasing your baby's SIDS risk. Consider a crib pad and cover to provide a comfortable sleeping surface for your baby. They consist of mattress pads with an elongated waterproof lining as well as a fitted "skirt" that wraps around the mattress like an oversized sheet.

They are designed to protect the baby's head in the event that it falls on the crib railings when you feed them or cradling them next to the bed. They can also prevent teeth marks and drool staining on the crib's railings on the sides that are fixed.

You'll have to purchase a toddler railing once your child has outgrown their crib. This will keep them safely in the crib until they are ready to move into a larger bed. Sweetpea Baby has a convertible crib toddler guard rail that works with the majority of cribs. It is easy to install and meets the CPSC safety standards.

Crib Hardware

Certain crib design elements are strictly aesthetic and are subject to individual preference, while others -- like the style of the slats that are on the crib or the possibility of it converting into a toddler bedcan have a major impact on the comfort of the crib and its durability. The best cots cribs are constructed from solid wood, and meet various safety standards, and can be easily adjusted to various mattress heights. Some cribs come with unique features that make them more useful like the Quick Zip Crib Sheet, which allows you to change sheets without taking the entire mattress from the crib.

In general, you should avoid cribs that have decorative cut-outs or other embellishments that could catch on clothing or pose a risk of choking for children. Check the crib hardware for loose bolts, as well as other items that could snag on objects or clothing.

The best crib sets come with simple instructions as well as all the required components, like hardware. Most modern recommended cribs take a half-hour or less to assemble, and many include all the tools you'll need.

Consider a convertible crib which can be transformed into a daybed, toddler or a full-size mattress. This is a great buy for families that plan to keep the crib for several years or who have limited space in their homes. You should be aware that some crib conversion kit require additional items to complete the process.

Crib hardware can be a bit tricky to understand, but it's essential for security and stability. Most cribs come with a system consisting of rectangular blocks, wedges (also called "shims") and large chocks, also known as step chocks. They're all designed to strengthen the connections between the crib and supported surface.

Some shims and chocks are made from soft woods that break slowly, which can provide audible warnings before they fail as more robust wood materials may break suddenly and with greater force. Choks and shims made of plastic are also available, which can be installed more easily because they do not require drilling or screwing into the surface.
