What is a bedside cot?

A bedside crib, also referred as a bassinet, or co-sleeper is a baby cot attached to your adult bed. This allows your child to sleep with you in a safe environment. This is a safe form of co-sleeping, which does not increase the risk of SIDS as bedsharing does. It can also help you bond with your new baby.

The cots come with a side which can be adjusted to allow you to reach your baby easily at night to comfort and feed them. This is especially useful for mothers who are recovering from an op. Many of them are portable or foldable so you can use them to travel or as an interim solution for infants who aren't ready to move into a full-sized crib.

Find a crib that has a breathable mattress, and a protective cover that will keep your baby safe from staining. It is also advisable to purchase baby-safe accessories like a blanket, teether and a cuddly toy.

If you're looking for a longer-term alternative, some cribs are equipped with conversion kits that let you convert them into a cot or toddler bed when the time comes. This is a great way to extend their life and making the transition more seamless. Some have a removable top section that converts into a bassinet, and some can be used on an ordinary or high-rise adult bed. This is a great option for families who plan to frequently travel or switch between bedrooms at night. You should also consider how big your bedroom is to ensure that you can fit the crib in comfortably. Many cribs come with an riser that can be used to create an inclined position for infants who suffer from reflux.

The Joie Roomie Glide

The Roomie Glide, a bedside crib from the English brand Joie is a wonderful addition to their range of high-quality products for babies. This crib was designed to enable parents to bond and sleep side-by-side with their children without sharing the same bed. It's packed with features that make bonding between parent and baby safe, simple and enjoyable.

A smooth rocking motion can be activated by pressing a button. This will help soothe your baby to sleep by a gentle rhythm that doesn't disrupt their normal sleep pattern. 4-in-1 bedside crib is ideal for toddlers and older infants who struggle to settle and can help with digestive issues such as colic and reflux.

The crib can also be affixed to the side of the bed using a strap and clip attachment. This makes it stable and secure, allowing you to get a good night's rest without worrying about your baby falling off into the middle of the room. The round shape of the cocoon has soft padded side panels and double mesh windows at both ends. This allows airflow while keeping your baby safe.

The premium airflow mattresses offer a comfortable sleeping surface, while ventilation panels help keep your baby cool. There are six different height settings, including an incline option that can help with reflux and congestion.

The Tutti Bambini COZee Air crib comes with a removable fabric and a wipe-clean lining. This makes it much easier to clean than other bedside cribs that are messy to clean. It also has a top bar which can be easily adjusted to accommodate nighttime feedings without having to mess with zips.

Anna discovered that the CoZee could provide a safe, comfortable sleeping space for her baby. She was pleased that it didn't move like other models so she wasn't woken up in the night trying to soothe her child to feed. She also loved that the side lowered down so she didn't have to reach out over her partner to lift the baby out to feed her at night.

The CoZee comes in oak or charcoal and is a stylish accessory to any bedroom. It's more stylish than other cribs we've seen, which are often quite utilitarian. It's also quite light at 11kg, and comes with a carry-on case so you can bring it with you on vacation or when moving house. The only extras you need to buy are a fitted waterproof sheet and a safety strap for co-sleeping. The instructions and pictures are easy to follow when you first open the box.

The Maxi-Cosi lora

The Iora is a bassinet for the bed that helps parents feel closer to their infant as they sleep. It adjusts upwards and downwards and can be moved through three slide positions to fit next to the bed of the parent, or in the corner of the room to ensure that your baby is within arm's reach. The mesh siding is breathable, allowing air to circulate through and allows you to glance at your baby. You can also store more pajamas and other supplies in the large storage basket underneath.

In contrast to other bedside cribs The Iora can be folded flat and comes with a bag for travel to allow it to be carried anywhere. Our mom testers found it easy to move from room to room, and believed it was a great size for a bedside cot, and not too big or small. They also loved the large storage basket, that is ideal for storing nappies or other bedding items.

This is a great choice for parents who are looking to co-sleep, but do not wish to share their beds or whose partners may be suffering from mobility issues, such as back problems or arthritis. Our mums who tested it loved that they could easily access their baby in the Iora and that it included an adjustable reflux incline that helped to reduce gas.

Our mothers also love the fact that it meets NICE guidelines that state to put the baby in a crib or Moses basket on its own (with no blankets, toys, pillows, etc). They also claim that the mattress is firm and comfortable for babies and is easy to find sheets for. It isn't as light as the other cribs for bedside use, though it is a good choice if you are looking for something lighter and easier to move around with, look at other options on our list.
