With a new baby on the way, you'll want the perfect crib to coordinate with your nursery and provide a safe sleep environment for your little one.
Not only are there different styles of baby cribs, but there is now a wide selection of convertible cribs. Many baby cribs are designed to convert to toddler beds, children's benches, and even adult daybeds for later use elsewhere in the home.
There are so many different types and sizes of kids bedding and baby bedding for children that it can sometimes be baffling to try and determine which bed size is best, and there is really no correct answer to this. It is all based on the individual child and other considerations.
The crib must meet all recommended safety standards. Most new cribs on the market today comply with both mandatory and voluntary safety standards.
For example, the bars or slats of the crib railing should be no more than 2 3/8 inches apart so a baby can't wedge his head between them. A mattress should fit snugly into the baby crib. There should not be any room that allows your baby to get his or her hands (or any other body parts) caught between the mattress and the baby crib.
Carefully choose the location for your baby's crib, in particular don't place the crib against a window, near drapery fixtures, or near furniture which could help your baby climb out.

Because a baby crib is the only children's product manufactured with the intention that a child will be left unattended, parents should be extremely careful in the selection process. You might find this link very handy with your selection process http://www.epinions.com/
