Please note that it is very important to ensure that the straps are correctly adjusted with respect to the minimum suggested size for mattress (width: 70 - 120 cm). If the straps are incorrectly adjusted the free length could exceed the specified maximum of 220 mm and cause danger to your child First and foremost, it is important that you select a bed that matches the child’s age and size. The first bed your child will be sleeping in is a crib - you can choose a regular crib or a By-My-Side crib which can be placed right against your bed.

It's often better to keep them in their cot for as long as possible.

After a few months, the child will be about to outgrow the crib, and then you need to find a cot. A cot is a good investment, as your child can use it for a long time - you can also choose to use a cot right from the start when your child is born. If you like, you should also remember to use a Cuddle Nest or a cot bumper for the cot. A Cuddle Nest, also called a baby nest, is great at surrounding your baby and making him or her feel safe. It is made so that it reminds the child of the safety of a mother’s womb, meaning that it naturally puts the child at ease. This is smart if you are unable to hold your child right in a certain moment. You can use a Cuddle Nest from birth and up to the age of approximately six months - or when the child simply grows out of it. You can benefit from selecting one of BabyDan’s or DreamSafe’s Cuddle Nests, which are breathable and entirely safe for your baby.

When selecting a mattress, it is important that you know whether your child has asthma or allergies - if so, you must select a mattress made from natural materials, and you can find those here in the BabyDan online store.

It is also an advantage to select a mattress with removable bedding, particularly for children who often have little accidents at night. If the child tends to wet the bed often, a mattress protector is a good idea as is buying an extra top mattress. And of course, a good top mattress is an important factor in ensuring that your child sleeps well. Many DreamSafe mattresses have a sewn-on top mattress, but you can also buy top mattresses separately and use them on top of another mattress. So I wanted something stylish and sleek, that wouldn’t be cheapy-looking or babyish. The Baby Dan rails hit all the right spots. They’re made from furniture grade Poplar wood, and available in both natural and white. Both options can easily fit in with your child’s bedroom decor. I opted for natural so that the white didn’t clash with the cream furniture we already had. Because I’m a bit fussy like that!
