Frequently asked questions
I’ve heard the terms co-sleeper, bedside crib, what are they?
A “co-sleeper” or “bedside crib” is a type of crib or bassinet that is designed to be placed right next to your bed, with one side lowering or removing completely. It allows you to sleep inches away from your baby, giving you the benefits of co-sleeping while still providing a separate, safe sleep space for the infant.
How it Works:
The bedside crib typically has an adjustable height feature so that the mattress of the crib can be aligned with the height of your mattress. One side of the crib can be lowered or unzipped, creating a “sidecar” effect. Some models also have straps that secure the crib to your bed frame, ensuring there are no dangerous gaps between the two mattresses.
