Baby Cribs

Baby will be sleeping in a crib from birth to 2 or 3 years of age, so this important piece of furniture will be the top priority when filling a nursery. Things to consider while shopping is safety and sturdiness, style, and the length of time you’ll be using it. The differences between a $200 and a $1000 crib is the quality of materials, styling, and extra features such as drawers and the ability to convert into a child’s bed.

Safety is a top concern, and since 1991, all cribs must meet federal guidelines. Some features include the proper width between slats, the safety of decorative elements, and the use of non-toxic paint and materials. When comparing cribs, it’s good to give it a good shake, to see if it’s wobbly or feels shoddy.

The crib may be a place for your newborn to sleep in, but it is you who will be enjoying the look and style of it. Many parents look for a crib that fits a certain theme of the nursery, while others look for something unique and distinctive, such as a round instead of box-like construction. Whatever your style, it comes secondary to the quality construction and safety of the furniture.

Shopping Tips:

  • If you want the ability to move the crib, look for sturdy and lockable metal casters
  • Make sure the side of the crib is easy to drop. Look for a smooth and silent mechanism that you can open with one hand, as you will often find yourself holding a sleeping baby in one arm while trying to operate the lock. Of course, the mechanism can’t be so easy that baby can unlock it!
  • Look for the ability to adjust the mattress height. When baby gets older and can begin to stand, lower the height to make the crib deeper.
  • The supporting frame for the mattress should have metal supports. Many cribs only have a wooden particleboard, which may not support the stress of an active, jumping baby.
