How to Choose the Best Infant Cribs
The crib is an essential piece of furniture for the nursery of your baby. It isn't easy to pick the right crib, with so many styles and safety concerns.
Find cribs that meet the highest safety standards and includes no chewable or dangling parts. We also recommend a sleek crib with a range of mattress sizes and an elegant, modern design.
Safety
Follow the safe sleeping guidelines of the American Academy of Pediatrics when assembling and positioning your crib for your child. It is essential to stay clear of putting anything in your baby's crib that could potentially cause injury or harm, including pillows, blankets as well as sheepskins, stuffed toys, and bumper pads (see our complete guide to safe sleeping for more information). Your baby should also not sleep with any teddy bears, dolls or stuffed animals larger than 15 inches. These items can easily fall into or become trapped between your baby and the crib bars or be swallowed by the mattress.
The best crib cribs for infants are made of safe materials that are free from VOCs and other toxic chemicals. They also adhere to strict federal and state regulations for structural safety. Additionally, they're third-party tested for safety and quality (think GREENGAURD gold or ASTM, JMPA, or CPSIA certificates!). They are also designed to be tough and convertible, so they'll continue to grow with your child.
It's important that you choose a crib that meets current safety standards, no matter if you're buying a brand new or used crib. Secondhand cribs may become less sturdy over time due to humidity, age and frequent use. This can pose serious risks to your best baby cots.
The slats of your crib should be no more than 3/8 inches (6 centimeters) apart to keep children from being wedged between them, and the hardware on the crib must be secured. It's also a good idea to check the slats and mattress support rims for any broken or loose components.
It is also advisable to stay clear of cribs that have been used by other children or pets, as their security might be compromised. Finally, don't purchase or buy a second-hand crib with an incline side rail, which was banned by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission in 2012 for reasons of safety.
Style
While all cribs have to comply with strict safety standards, you'll find a lot of design differences. Some differences are purely aesthetic, such as whether the slats are all the same length or are spaced further than others, and some can make it difficult to use and clean the crib. Certain features, like drop sides and finials are not safe and should be avoided. Other features, such as adjustable mattress heights and wheels, are sought-after by many parents.
A crib is not meant to be used as a place for toys or clothes. It's only intended to be a place for babies to sleep. It's also an excellent idea to include the crib on your list so that friends and family can pitch in to help you get one when the time arrives.
Cribs come in all sizes and shapes however, the ones we prefer combine style and functionality. For example, the Storkcraft Equinox 3-in-1 is minimal and stylish. It's GREENGUARD Gold certified, which we believe is essential for any baby product that is non-toxic, and it can convert into a toddler bed or daybed (toddler conversion kit sold separately).
Some cribs feature an older-style look, such as the DaVinci Jayden cots 4 tots-in-1. It's a chic option that can be incorporated into larger nursery. However, it occupies more floor space when compared to smaller minimalist options. It has only three mattress levels, which is half the number of competitors. It's not as sturdy as our other choices.
Another option that has modern design is the Babyletto Hudson. Its hidden hardware and all-round mesh increase airflow and make it easier to see your baby, which Dr. Casares says is an important feature for many new parents. It can also be elevated to a higher height to ease colic and reflux and colic, making it suitable for babies aged from birth to 6 months. It's GREENGUARD GOLD-certified and comes with an extra mattress that can be used as a substitute. It's worth noting, though it's more expensive than our other top picks and requires a separate toddler bed conversion kit.
Adjustable Mattress Height
It is crucial that your baby's crib mattress is of the correct height. This will ensure that your child doesn't fall out which could be hazardous or even fatal. A mattress that is higher can protect your child from heat exhaustion or suffocation.
A quality crib should have adjustable slats or railings that allow you to raise or lower the mattress as your child grows. A majority of cribs include a conversion kit so you can turn the crib into the toddler bed or daybed after your baby outgrows it. It is recommended to pick the crib that has been certified and tested by a third-party organisation.

The only drawback to this crib is that it doesn't include mattress, which you'll have to purchase separately. It's a secure, comfortable crib that can expand with your child as they transition from infant to toddler.
No Chewable or Dangling Parts
The safest cribs are those that do not have chewable or dangling components. If something is hanging above or below their crib, it could cause the rails to pull or create a strangulation risk. Babies can be very grabbing. If a parent decides to decorate their crib with ornaments or toys, they need to be sure that the items are securely fastened and are not within Baby's reach.
