These products may have slats that allow the baby's legs or head to be snagged and their attachment mechanisms may be unstable and lead to separation.

A bedside crib, also known as a bassinet or a co-sleeper, allows babies to sleep beside their parents' beds, while having an independent sleeping space.

When transitioning, be sure to move the crib away from the parent's bed over several months or even weeks so that your infant can become comfortable sleeping in their own space while still being a part of their parents' presence.

This makes them a perfect choice for new parents who like to travel.

However it is crucial to note that an elevated or slanted sleeping surface may cause your child to sleep in a risky chin-to-chest position. This can cause suffocation, and should be avoided.

Cribs are among the nursery items that could lead to death, especially in older cribs that have broken or missing parts, or have larger spaces between the slats. Older mattresses may also develop dips and other conditions that could be dangerous for your child.
