What is a bedside baby sleeper crib?

A bedside crib (also known as a co-sleeper or bassinet) is a small baby crib that is attached to your adult bed, allowing your infant to sleep safely next to you. It's a method of co-sleeping that is safe and does not increase the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) similar to bedsharing and can help you build a bond with your baby's new arrival.

These cots have one side that can be adjusted so that you can reach your baby easily in the nighttime to comfort them and feed them. This is particularly useful for mothers recovering from a c section. Many are also mobile or foldable, which means you can take them on your travels and use them as a sleeping solution for newborns who aren't ready to transition into a cot that is full size.

Choose a crib that has an air-conditioned mattress, as well as an appropriate cover to protect your baby from stains. You should also purchase baby-safe accessories such as a blanket and a cuddly toy.

If you're looking for a longer-term alternative, some cribs are equipped with conversion kits that let you turn them into a cot, or a toddler bed when the time comes. This will prolong their life and make the transition smoother. Some have a removable section at the top that can be converted into an infant bed. Other models can be used with either a standard adult bed or a high-rise bed. This is a good choice for families that plan on traveling frequently or switching rooms during the night. It is also important to consider the size of your bedroom to ensure that you can squeeze the crib in comfortably. Many cribs come with risers that can be used to create an incline for babies who have reflux.

The Joie Roomie Glide

Famous for their high-end baby products English brand Joie has stepped into the world of cribs for bedside use with the Roomie Glide. The co-sleeper was created to enable parents to connect and sleep side-by-side with their children without sharing a single bed. It is full of features that help make bonding between parent and baby safe, easy, and fun.

One of the most important features is a smooth rocking motion that can be activated by the touch of a button. This gentle rhythm will help to soothe your baby without disrupting their natural sleep patterns. This is great for older babies or toddlers who are having trouble settling down. It can also help with digestive problems like colic and reflux.

The crib can be locked in it once the rocking is completed to stop it from moving and can be secured to the bed's side by a strap and clip attachment. This makes it very solid and secure, allowing you to enjoy a great night's sleep without worrying about your child falling off into the middle of the room. The cocoon's rounded shape features softly cushioned sides and double mesh windows on both ends to allow plenty of air flow whilst protecting your baby.

The mattress included is firm and comfortable, and has a removable cover. The lightweight aluminium frame makes the crib extremely mobile and easy to put together. The four lockable rubber-covered wheels ensure that the crib will not leave marks on your flooring and are easy to move. It is easy to clean using fabric wipes and is simple to tote in a backpack, making it ideal for extended absences from home.

Its airflow mattress is luxurious and provides a comfortable sleep surface while the ventilation panels keep your baby cool. There are also 6 different height settings and an incline option to help with reflux and congestion.

Contrary to some cribs that are placed on the bed that can be a nightmare to clean due to their constant stream of snot and dribble The Tutti Bambini CoZee Air has a wipe-clean liner and fabric that can be removed for machine-washing. It also has a top bar which can be easily lowered to accommodate feedings at night without the need to juggle zips.

Anna discovered that the CoZee was a comfortable and safe sleep space for her newborn. She was pleased the fact that it didn't roll like other models, which meant it didn't wake her at night while she was trying to soothe her baby during feeds. She also loved the fact that the side could be lowered so that she didn't have to reach out over her partner to pull the baby bedside co sleeper for night time feeds.

The CoZee is available in oak and charcoal and was a stylish addition to the bedroom. It looks more designer than other cribs we've tried and are typically utilitarian. It's also light at just 11kg. It also comes with a carry case, so you can take it on holiday or when moving house. The only extras you have to purchase are a fitted waterproof sheet and a co-sleeping safety strap. There are helpful step-by-step instructions and illustrations to help you put it together when you first open the box which makes it a single-person job should you need to.

The Maxi-Cosi lora

The Iora is a bassinet that can be placed at the bedside that allows parents to feel more connected to their infant while they sleep. It can be adjusted upwards and downwards and shifted through three different positions for sliding to fit under the bed of the parent or in the corner so the baby is always in reach. The breathable mesh siding allows air to circulate through and allows you to glance at your baby. You can also store additional pajamas or other items in the large basket underneath.

In contrast to other bedside cribs, the Iora folds flat and comes with a bag for travel so that it can be carried anywhere. Our mom testers were able to move it from room to room and felt that it was a suitable size for a small bedside cot, and not too big or too small. The large bedside cot storage basket is great to store extra bedding or nappies.

This is a great choice for parents looking to sleep in a co-sleeping arrangement but don't want to share their own beds, or whose partners might have mobility issues, like back problems or arthritis. Our mom testers are thrilled with the convenience of being able to access their child in the Iora and that it comes with an optional reflux incline to help with gas.

Our moms appreciate the fact that the mattress is in line with NICE guidelines, which are to place the baby in a crib or Moses basket on its own (with no toys, blankets pillows, etc.). The mattress is also firm and comfortable for the baby and sheets are easy to find. It isn't as light as other smaller bedside cribs, though, so if you want something lighter and easier to move around, look at other options in our list.
