Bedside Cots & Cribs: Safe Co-Sleeping, Made Easy

For new parents, especially during the newborn phase, nothing feels more comforting than keeping your baby close-especially at night. That’s where bedside cots and cribs come in. Designed to safely attach or sit next to your bed, they combine the closeness of co-sleeping with the safety of independent sleep. At AllThingsBaby, we offer a thoughtfully curated range of bedside cots and cribs that make nighttime feeding, diaper changes, and cuddles simpler-without compromising on sleep safety.

Why Bedside Cots & Cribs Are a Game-Changer

1. Encourages Bonding Without Bed-Sharing Risks

Bedside cots allow you to respond quickly to your baby without bringing them into your bed-reducing the risk of suffocation or rolling over during sleep.

2. Simplifies Nighttime Feeding

Whether you're breastfeeding or bottle-feeding, having your baby right beside you reduces night-time stress and disruption.

3. Eases Newborn Sleep Transitions

Babies sleep better when they feel close to their caregivers. Bedside cribs help them sleep more soundly while building independent sleep habits.

Key Features to Look For

• Drop-Down Side Panel: Allows easy access to the baby without lifting or bending too far.
• Adjustable Height Levels: Ensures the cot aligns perfectly with your bed’s height.
• Secure Attachment Straps: Keeps the crib tightly fixed to the adult bed.
• Breathable Mesh Sides: Promotes air circulation and visibility.
• Mobility Wheels (with Lock): Let you move the cot from room to room as needed.

Safety Tips for Bedside Cots

• Always Use the Safety Straps – Ensure the cot is firmly attached to your bed.
• Keep Bedding Minimal – Avoid pillows, loose blankets, and stuffed toys inside the crib.
• Adjust Height Carefully – The mattress should be level with yours, never higher.
• Check Wheels Are Locked – Prevents shifting during the night.
