+Which Baby Cot is Right For Your Baby?
+
+Cots are designed to keep children from falling out of their beds or becoming suffocated in the event of a fall between the mattress and the cot. They should not have sharp edges or protrusions.
+
+The majority of cots have four secured sides, so you can be sure your child is secure throughout the day. They often come in the fixed size and could be converted to a toddler bed as your child grows up.
+
+Standard Cots
+
+Standard cots can be easily installed beside the parents' bed, allowing them to view their baby while they lay down. They are designed to be secure and safe with fixed sides to prevent babies from climbing on the sides. Once your baby is able to stand and crawl over the sides, they pose an hazard to safety and should be removed.
+
+Cots are generally circular in shape to reduce space and are also smaller than traditional cots. They are easy to clean and provide a cozy and safe space for your baby to rest in. They are portable and usually have wheels or castors so you can move them around.
+
+Many cots are basic and straightforward. Some have additional features like teething rails or storage drawers. The best cots are made of natural materials as these are more robust and resistant to wear and tear. It is important to keep them free of any stuffed animals or pillows, as they can cause children to drown.
+
+A cot bed is a more spacious version of a cot that features removable sides as well as an end panel, which means it can be transformed into a toddler bed when your baby outgrows it. This feature is particularly beneficial if you expect to have more than one child because it means you don't have to switch between different types and saves money by not buying separate beds. The majority of cribs can be used right from the moment your baby is born until the time he is two years old, depending on their size and weight.
+
+Drop-side Cots
+
+If you are suffering from back discomfort, a cot that has drop-sides is the ideal alternative. It won't require you to bend over the side. This is important since back problems are one of the most frequent problems for pregnant women and new parents, especially those who have had back injuries previously.
+
+This kind of cot means that your baby will be easily reached during the day without you having to worry about your back or lifting them. But, you must ensure that the gap between the base of the mattress and the base of the cot is at least 4cm in order that your child won't be able to climb out.
+
+If you are unsure about the best cot for your child's needs we suggest calling Baby's Hyperstore to talk through your options. We can help you find an elegant, safe cot that can grow with your child, and meet all safety standards required by law.
+
+Our top pick is the John Lewis Elementary cot which was a top performer in our tests for being simple to put together. Mum tester Gina said that it was "a dream to construct - very clear instructions and pictures". It also comes with a handy drawer and teething rails, as well as three adjustable mattress height positions.
+
+The cot is a great option for babies that sleep all night. However, you must ensure whether the cot is constructed of a safe material, such as solid wood, and that the slats have been fixed correctly and not loosened.
+
+Verify that the cot has been certified to be in compliance with British safety regulations. Before 2011, US cots were not tested in the same manner as UK models and this led to unsafe designs being banned in the USA. Find a cot that locks automatically the drop side when in the up position and requires two consecutive actions to unlock, which will prevent your baby from being able to pull the side down and climb out.
+
+Corner Cots
+
+Although photos of a styled nursery may show blankets adorably wrapped around a cot according to Red Nose, a charity fighting to stop sudden infant deaths, all fabrics placed in the vicinity of the baby must be tucked in tightly to avoid the danger of being suffocated. Red Nose advises that curtains or blinds should not be left hanging over the cot, as they could be strangulation hazards and children could get their heads against them when they roll over during their sleep.
