The Best Bedside Cot For Newborns

A bedside crib travel cot cot is a bassinet-style crib that can be attached to the side of your bed, making it easy to reach your baby to feed them without fuss. These are suitable for infants from birth up to six months.

The Lullaby Trust and the NHS both recommend that infants have separate cots to their parents' beds. This reduces the risk of SIDS. The best cribs for bedside use allow for this.

1. Arm's Reach Clear-Vue Co-Sleeper

When co-sleeping was a brand-new idea, a mother-and-father team founded Arm's Reach and came up with a design that would let parents comfortably sleep with their infants. It was the very first cot for bedside that allowed babies to sleep close without falling off or getting trapped in the mattress. The Clear-Vue is still in widespread use in the present, with an average of 25 years and no reported injuries or deaths.

It comes with a fitted sheet and the bassinet. The bassinet is meant for newborns up to five months old or until they start pushing up on their hands and knees or bending their knees, whichever comes first. The Co-Sleeper can be used as a stand-alone, standalone bassinet or it can attach to the parent's bed with the included attachment strap and plate. The Co-Sleeper is simple to switch between these two modes by pulling a string. However, it does not meet federal standards for an attached bed. Therefore, your baby should not be left unattended.

McKenna was also impressed with the Co-Sleeper’s accessibility. She said it is simple to lift your baby in and out of the bassinet from the comfort of your bed for feedings during the night or for other requirements. He also praised its safety and said that the Co-Sleeper is in compliance with all standards for bassinets and cribs and is available for decades with "probably 1.5 million units sold" and no reported incidents of infants being injured or killed.

The Clear-Vue bedside cot was the easiest to access of the cots we tried. The swiveling sleeping space and adjustable height of the Clear-Vue made it easy for you to reach your baby and comfort them. The Clear-Vue does not have lower sidewalls which require you to stand or crouch down to grab your baby.

The Clear-Vue was the only model in our top five that didn't connect to the bed of the parent. However, it was a close runner-up and far superior to some of the other models we tested, which were designed to be affixed to parent beds. It's sturdy and solid, with plenty of storage.

2. HALO Bassinest

The HALO Swivel Bassinest Sleeper is one of the few bedside cot that can rotate 360 degrees, bringing baby closer and making it easier for parents to access and exit. It also features a lower wall that allows moms to tend to their infants without having to get out of bed. This is a big plus for nursing mamas who need help tending to their newborns who are feeding in clusters during the early weeks and months after delivery.

The Bassinest features mesh side walls to allow for airflow and the ability to swivel for parents who wish to keep an eye on the baby throughout the night. The ability to monitor the baby and keep them close can make a huge difference during the tired delirium that is a result of becoming a parent.

This model earned top marks in the Convenience assessment which rated features that make it simple to clean and use. This is a must for anyone who is dealing with diaper blowouts and spit-ups that are frequent in the early months of life. The Bassinest can be easily cleaned with water and is a light weight. The mattress pad is also washable. It also comes with a side pouch that is useful to store items such as diapers and nipple cream which are essential during those sleep-deprived early days of motherhood.

There are many models of the Bassinest that are available, including the less expensive standard Essentia version that does not have any extra features, and the more extravagant LUXE PLUS series that includes white noise and vibrations to help babies fall and sleep. Both models include a fitted sheet, a mattress pad, and a storage bag that is bigger than the other Bassinest models.

The LUXE Plus series has a lowering-wall lock, a sturdy and sturdy base that adjusts for most beds that are between 22" and 34", an adjustable floor lamp that lets you see your baby during the day and a removable storage bag that can hold additional bedding or other items. It's not ideal for travel bedside crib due to the size and weight, but the swivel feature is great to keep baby close while you're at home.

3. Joie Roomie Glide

Created to make bonding between parents and babies a dream, this co-sleeper by English brand Joie is more than a large bedside cot crib. With a single-hand slide and sliding side panel, it helps you to sleep in a safe place with your baby without having to share your own bed. You can feed, soothe or snuggle your baby in the peace of your bed. Enjoy every minute of the baby's first year.

The Joie Roomie Glide Cot is simple to use and clean. It's a great choice for parents who want to co-sleep safely with their newborn. Its cocoon-shaped rounded design with softly padding on the sides and a double mesh window allow you to observe your baby's sleep from the comfort of your sofa or bed. The side panel sliding can be raised and lowered with one hand. This makes it easier to respond to late-night wakeup calls. The gentle motion will gently soothe your child into peace so that you can enjoy the rest of your night.

The crib has an washable, fitted mattress that can be removed to make cleaning easier and an aluminum, lightweight but sturdy frame that allows for easy movement. It has four lockable wheels to help keep it in place and is covered with a rubber-coated fabric to avoid scratches on the floor.

The adjustable height of the Roomie Glide is among its greatest features. You can adjust the legs to ensure that they are perfectly aligned with the mattress of your baby. This is especially beneficial when you're breastfeeding, as you can feed your baby without leaving your bed. The height can also reduce the chance of your child falling out of the crib.

Another great feature is the built-in rocking mechanism that's ideal for newborns. Two buttons on the side of the crib will trigger an easy rocking motion that's soothing and comforting for your baby. You can select a leisurely or lively tempo and the gliding function can be locked once your baby is fast asleep.

The only drawback to the Roomie Glide cot is that it is only suitable for newborns. You'll need to upgrade your baby's bed to a full size crib when he/she is six months old (normally at the time they move into their room). Roanna thought it was an excellent cot bed and would certainly recommend it.

4. Bjorn Cradle

The Bjorn Cradle makes a great option for parents looking for a stylish, simple bedside cot co sleeper cot. Its simple design looks great in any space and is simple to set up and use.

In addition to its small size its light weight makes it simple to move from room to room. It is also easy to clean and is machine-washable with the mattress pad and the designated sheet. However, it is important to note that the cradle should not be used in conjunction with any other padding mattress, pillow bedding, or comforter, since this could create a suffocation risk for infants.

To decrease the risk of SIDS, it's important to have secure sleeping habits in all sleeping areas. It is crucial to put your baby on its back at every nap, and also in the cradle. It is also recommended to put the cradle down when your baby begins pushing up on their hands or knees or reaches 8kg/18lbs.
