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

The best crib sets come with everything you need for your infant to rest comfortably from the beginning. They are already shrunk and machine washable. They are designed to sit comfortably around the mattress, and avoid getting tangled - a major danger for infants.

One tester for parents said that she used hers for two babies and then passed it on to a different friend. This made it a wise purchase. Its sleek design makes it a great choice for minimalist nurseries.

Bedding

There are a lot of choices when it comes to crib bedding. It's not just about picking one that is in line with your aesthetic. You should also ensure that the bedding is tightly fitted and doesn't bunch up in areas that could create the risk of choking your child. It must be soft and sturdy enough to withstand blowouts from diapers, spills, and other messes over the course of months without wearing out.

This Avocado set is one of our top picks. It comes with two sheets that are made from 100% certified organic GOTS cotton. The fabrics are MADE SAFE certified, an independent third-party certification that assures that the company's products 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 a standard crib mattress (27 1 4 inches wide by 51 5/8 inches long). The blankets are machine washable to clean up the inevitable mess that your little bundle is likely to make.

A crib mattress pad is a ideal option for babies and toddlers. It adds an extra layer of comfort and protects the mattress from spills and stains. Choose mattresses that are less than an inch thick, so your child is able to breathe easily. And steer clear of anything that's too fluffy or includes long bows, ribbons and other adornments that can detach and pose a strangulation risk.

Consider buying an adjustable crib if you plan to keep your baby in the crib for a long time. These beds can be transformed into a toddler bed, or even a full-size daybed. Some cribs come with necessary conversion kits, but others require a separate purchase.

This Dream On Me Ashton 5 in 1 Sleigh crib is among our favorites. It's made of solid wood and features one of the highest mattress heights (for parents who are worried about getting on an unattractive mattress). It's also certified Greenguard Gold, which means it meets the strictest environmental standards to prevent off gassing.

Mattress

Size and firmness are crucial when it comes to crib mattress. The AAP recommends a mattress that is firm which fits snugly, and does not leave an indentation on the surface when you lay sheets over it. The mattress should be the correct size for the crib and it should stay in place--even after your baby grows out of it.

Additionally, you'll need to consider if the mattress is made up of chemicals that could be harmful to your child. Choose mattresses that are odorless and free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)--which often emit an unpleasant chemical smell. CertiPUR US certification is a good cribs indicator. It certifies that the foam used in the mattress is free of ozone depleters as well as other harmful chemicals.

Other aspects to consider are the weight of the mattress and whether or not it is waterproof. A mattress that is waterproof or able to be cleaned is better for cleaning, since you'll be changing sheets in the night. The Naturepedic Organic Cotton Classic 150 Seamless 2Stage is the most heavy product we've tested, weighing at 20 pounds. This may be a major issue for some parents.

A mattress that has two sides could have an infant side that is firm and a softer side for toddlers. Pediatricians recommend flipping the mattress after your child is at the peak of their normal growth, which is usually at around 12 months.

When we tested crib mattresses, we measured them and observed how easily they folded and maneuvered to dress the sides with sheets. We also placed a weight of 8 pounds, slightly heavier than that of a newborn infant, on each mattress to observe how it reacted. The most comfortable mattresses did not sink, which means they provide enough support to stop your child from falling or being suffocated in bed. Some of the mattresses we tested come with an easily washable, removable cover that is waterproof and zips closed. This makes cleaning and maintaining them easier.

Crib Rails

A crib isn't complete without the proper set of rails fixed. Some furniture companies for babies provide baby rails in the crib. Others sell them separately. If you choose to purchase them separately, look for ones that meet the safety requirements. They should, for example be free of loose screws, brackets, and other hardware. They must also be able to support the weight of your child without becoming too fragile. They should also be able to secure themselves to ensure that they are not removed from your child.

The crib rails you choose should not only be sturdy but they must also fit comfortably within the crib frame. This will prevent the mattress from becoming fragile, which could be dangerous for your baby. When purchasing crib rails, be sure to take measurements of the inside of the frame, since there are slight variations in crib sizes. The space should ideally be no wider than three fingers.

You should also make sure that the crib rails don't contain any cutouts that are decorative or other embellishments. These can pose the risk of suffocation. Avoid placing quilts, pillows blankets, sheepskins and blankets inside the crib. These could cause the buildup of carbon dioxide, increasing your baby's SIDS risk. If you're looking to add an extra soft surface for sleeping in the crib, consider a crib pad and cover combination. These products are made up of a mattress pad that is waterproof and a fitted "skirt", which fits around the mattress like the fitted sheet.

In the end, you'll need to get the right crib rail guards. These are specifically designed to cushion your baby's head if it falls on the crib railings while you're feeding or cradling him or her in bed. They also help to prevent the formation of marks from teeth and drool on the crib's railings that are fixed.

Once your infant outgrows the crib, you'll require a toddler guard rail to keep your child safe in the crib until they're ready for a bigger bed for their child. Sweetpea Baby beds offers a convertible crib toddler rail that can fit on most cribs that are standard. It's simple to install and meets all of the CPSC's safety standards.

Crib Hardware

Some aspects of crib design are solely aesthetic or are subject to personal preference however other aspects, such as the design of slats or whether the crib converts into a toddler bed--can have significant influence on the ease of use and the length of time the crib will last. The best cribs are constructed of solid wood, comply with various safety standards and are easily adapted to different mattress heights. Certain cribs have distinct features that make them more efficient such as the Quick Zip Crib Sheet that allows you to swap the sheets without removing the entire mattress from the crib.

Avoid cribs with decorative cutouts, or other accessories, as they could snag on clothing or pose a risk of choking for children. Examine the crib's hardware for loose bolts, as well as other items that could snag on clothing or objects.

The most effective crib sets come with simple instructions as well as all the required components, including hardware. Most modern cribs take a half an hour or less to put together and a lot include all the tools you'll require.

You may also want to think about a convertible crib that can transform into a daybed for toddlers, a toddler bed, or full-size bed. This can be a smart purchase for families who plan to keep the crib for many years or have small space in their homes. It's important to keep in mind that certain crib conversion kits require additional items to fully complete the process.

It can be difficult to comprehend crib hardware, but it's crucial for security and stability. most recommended cribs cribs have a system of rectangular blocks wedges (also called "shims") and large chocks, also known as step chocks. They're all designed to tighten the contact points between crib and the surface that supports it.

Some shims and chocks are made from soft woods that break slow, which may provide audible warnings prior to failure as more robust wood materials could break abruptly and with greater force. Shims and chocks made of plastic are also available, and are easier to install because they do not require drilling or screwing into the surface.
