A Small Bedside Cot That Attaches to Your Adult Bed

If you're looking to keep your baby as close as you can at night without getting out of bed, a bedside crib is the ideal solution. The fabric's breathable design means you can easily see your baby, and they're incredibly easy to lower for those tired 3am feeds.

Some also double up as a moses basket, too.

What is a bedside cot?

A bedside crib, also known as a bassinet or a co sleeper bedside cot-sleeper is a crib for babies that is attached to your adult bed. This allows your baby to sleep next to you in safety. This is a secure form of co-sleeping and does not increase the risk of SIDS like bedsharing. It can also help you bond with the new baby.

They usually come with a side that can be raised, so you can easily reach your newborn during the night for feeding and comforting. This is particularly useful for mothers who are recovering from a csection. Many are also portable or foldable, so you can bring them along on trips and use them as a temporary sleep solution for newborns who aren't quite ready to move into a cot that is full size.

When shopping for a crib to sleep in, look for a model with a breathable mattress and a cover to shield your infant from stains. You may also want to purchase baby-safe items such as a blanket or teether.

If you are looking for a longer-term solution cribs are available with conversion kits that allow you to convert them into a toddler bed or cot for bedside at the time that is appropriate. This is a great way to extend their lifespan and making the transition more seamless. Some come with a removable section at the top that can be turned into the bassinet. Other models can be used in conjunction with a standard adult bed or a high-rise one. This is a good choice for families who are planning on frequent travel or switching between bedrooms during the night. Be aware of the dimensions of your room to ensure you fit comfortably in the crib. Many cribs come with a riser which can be used to create an inclined position for babies who suffer from reflux.

Anna discovered that the CoZee could be a safe and comfortable place to sleep for her baby. She liked that it didn't move like other models so she wasn't woken up in the night trying to soothe her child for feedings. She also loved the fact that the side could be lowered so that she didn't have to reach over her partner to lift the baby out for feedings at night.

The CoZee is available in oak and charcoal and was a stylish addition to the bedroom. It looks more like a designer piece than some of the other cribs we've tested, which can look quite utilitarian in comparison. It's also relatively lightweight at just 11kg, and comes with a carry case so you can take it away on holidays or if you're moving home. You'll need an waterproof sheet and a safety strap for sleeping together. The instructions and illustrations are simple to follow when you first open the box.

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 child while they sleep. It adjusts up and down and moves through three slide positions to fit beside the parent's bed, or in the corner of the room so that the baby is always close to the parent's side. The mesh siding is breathable, allowing air to circulate through and allows you to glance at your child. You can also keep additional pajamas or other items in the large basket beneath.

As opposed to other bedside cribs The Iora can be folded flat and comes with a bag for travel to allow it to be taken wherever. Our mom testers found it easy to move from room to room and believed it was a great size for a bedside cot that was not too big or too small. The large storage basket is perfect for storing extra bedding or nappies.

This is a great option for parents who wish to sleep together, but don't wish to share their bed. Also, if one of the partners has mobility issues like arthritis or back pain. Our mom testers love the convenience of being able to access their baby in the Iora and that it has an option to tilt the bed upwards to help with gas.

Our mothers also love the fact that it complies with NICE guidelines which state that you should place the baby in a crib or Moses basket on its own (with no blankets, toys, pillows, etc). The mattress is also firm and comfortable for babies and sheets are readily available. It's not as light as the other smaller cribs on our list, so if prefer something lighter and easier to move, choose another option.
