The best crib sets come with everything you require for your baby to sleep soundly from day one. They are already shrunk and machine washable. They are designed to sit comfortably around the mattress, and avoid the risk of bunching, which is a serious danger for infants.

Bedding

There are a lot of choices when it comes to crib bedding. It's not just about choosing one that is in line with your style. It is also important to make sure the sheet fits tightly and does not gather in areas that could be the risk of choking your child. It must be soft and sturdy enough to withstand diaper blowouts, spills, and other messes for a long time without fading.

This set from Avocado is one of our favorite. It contains two sheets that are made from 100% GOTS certified organic cotton. The textiles are also MADE SAFE certified, an independent third-party certification that assures that the company's products meet rigorous standards for quality and safety. The sheets are pre-shrunk to ensure that they don't shrink and stretch after washing. They also fit a standard crib (27 1 4 inches wide by 51 5/8 inches long). The blankets can be washed to clean up the inevitable mess your baby will create.

Another great option for infants and toddlers is crib mattress pads which provides an additional layer of comfort and protects the mattress from spills and stains. Select a mattress cover that is less than 1 inch thick to allow your child to breathe.

If you're planning to keep your baby in a crib for quite some time, you should consider purchasing a convertible crib. They typically convert into a toddler bed and occasionally to full-size beds or a daybed, too. Some cribs come with conversion kits, while others require a purchase.

A few of our favorite cribs are this Dream On Me Ashton 5-in-1 crib that is sleigh-style, made from solid wood and has one of the highest mattress heights in the group (for parents who are concerned about reaching down to a low mattress). We love that it's also Greenguard Gold certified, meaning it meets stringent environmental standards to prevent off-gassing.

Mattress

When it concerns crib mattresses, firmness and sizing are essential. The AAP recommends a firm mattress that is comfortable and doesn't leave an indentation on the surface when you put a sheet over it. The mattress should be the appropriate size for the crib and should remain in place after your child has grown out of it.

You'll also want to check if the mattress contains chemicals that may harm your child. Find a mattress that is free of volatile organic compound (VOCs) which release an unpleasant chemical odor. CertiPUR US certification is a good sign. It confirms that the foam used in the mattress is free of ozone depleters as well as other harmful chemicals.

Other things to consider include how much weight the mattress is weighing and whether it's waterproof or not. You'll likely have to deal with changing sheets at night and having a surface that is waterproof or wipeable will make cleaning easier.

Another important thing to consider is if the mattress has a dual-sided. Some have a firm infant side and an easy toddler side. Pediatricians suggest flipping the mattress when your child has reached the height of their normal growth, usually about 12 months.

We weighed the mattresses and observed how easily they folded to cover the sides of the crib with sheets. We also put the weight of 8 pounds which was slightly heavier than the weight of a newborn baby, on each mattress to determine how it reacted. The best ones did not sink in and therefore provide enough support to keep your child from falling out of their bed during sleep or suffocate. Some of the mattresses we tested come with an easily washable, removable cover that is waterproof and zips shut. This makes cleaning and maintaining them easier.

Crib Rails

A crib would be incomplete without the proper set of rails fixed. While some cribs for babies include a set of baby rails with the crib and others sell them separately. If you choose to buy them separately, make sure they meet all safety standards. For instance, they should be free of missing or loose screws, brackets cots and tots other hardware. They should be strong enough to hold your child's weight without being too thin. They should also be able be secured in a secure way so that they cannot be removed from your child.

The crib rails need to not only be strong and sturdy, but they should also fit within the frame of the crib. This will keep the mattress from becoming too flimsy, which can cause harm to your baby. Be sure to measure inside the crib frame prior to purchasing the crib rail. There are slight variations in the crib sizes. The dimensions should be no wider than three fingers.

You'll also want to ensure that the crib rails are free of cut-outs for decorative purposes and other adornments, which can be potential suffocation hazards. Avoid placing pillows blankets, blankets, quilts or sheepskins in the crib since they can contribute to an unhealthy build-up of carbon dioxide and increase your baby's risk of SIDS. If you're looking to add a soft sleep surface in the crib, you can try a crib pad-and-cover combo. The products comprise an upholstered mattress pad, waterproof lining and an adjustable "skirt" that stretches over the mattress, much like an oversized sheet.

You'll also want to ensure that you have the right crib rail guards. These are designed to cushion the baby's head in the event that it falls on the crib railings as you feed him or her or cradling them beside the bed. They can also prevent dental marks and cots 4 Tots drool staining on the crib's side railings that are fixed.

When your child is no longer in the crib, you'll require a toddler guard rail to keep your child safe in the crib until they're ready to move on to a big kid bed. Sweetpea Baby offers a convertible crib toddler rail that can work with most standard cribs. It's easy to set up and is compliant with the CPSC's safety standards.

Crib Hardware

Certain crib design elements are only aesthetic and are based on personal taste, but others -- such as the design of the slats on the crib or the possibility of it converting into a toddler bed -could have a significant impact on the user-friendliness of the crib as well as its durability. The best cribs are made of solid wood, comply with multiple safety regulations and can be easily adapted to different mattress heights. Some cribs feature unique features which make them more effective. For instance the Quick Zip Crib Sheet allows you to change the sheets without removing the entire mattress.

Avoid cribs that have ornamental cutouts or other designs because they could get caught on clothing or create the risk of choking babies. Be sure to check the crib's hardware for loose bolts, as well as other items that could snag on clothing or other objects.

The best crib sets come with simple instructions as well as all the required parts, such as hardware. Modern cribs typically take half-hour or less to put together and a majority include all the equipment you'll need.

Think about a convertible crib that can be transformed into a toddler, daybed or full-size mattress. This is a great option for families that plan to utilize the crib for a long period of years or have a limited space. It is important to remember that certain crib conversion kits require additional items to complete the conversion.

It isn't easy to comprehend crib hardware, but it's essential for security and stability. Most cribs are equipped with a system of rectangular blocks as well as wedges (also known as "shims") and large chocks called step chocks, all designed to ensure that contact points are secure between the crib and supported surface.

Some shims and chocks are made from soft woods that break slowly, and can give warnings that sound before they fail, while stiffer wooden materials may break suddenly and with more force. Shims and chocks made of plastic are also available for purchase. They are simpler to install, as they do not require drilling into the surface.
