Mattress

When it is about crib mattresses, firmness and sizing are essential. The AAP suggests using a mattress that is firm and is comfortable and does not leave an indentation when you lay a sheet on it. The mattress should be the right size for the crib and should remain in place when your child is out of it.

Additionally, you'll need to determine if the mattress is made from chemicals that could potentially harm your child. Find a mattress that is odor-free and free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)--which frequently emit a noxious chemical smell. A good indication is a CertiPUR-US certificate which confirms that the foam used in a mattress is made without Ozone depleters, PBDEs and TDCPP and TCEP flame retardants mercury, lead, and other heavy metals, formaldehyde, phthalates regulated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, and volatile organic compounds.

If you choose to buy the rails separately, ensure that they meet all safety standards. For example, they should be free of any missing or loose screws, brackets and other hardware. They should also be able support the weight of your child, but not be too flimsy. They must also be secured in a secure way so they can't be taken away by your child.

The right crib rails will not only be strong but they must be able to fit snugly into the frame of the crib. This will prevent the mattress from becoming too fragile and potentially risky for your child. Be sure to measure the width of the crib frame prior to purchasing the crib rail. There are a few slight variations in the sizes of the crib. The area should not be larger than three fingers.

It is also important to ensure that the crib rails don't include any cutouts with decorative designs or other ornaments. These can pose an suffocation threat.

Crib Hardware

Some crib design features are only aesthetic and are based on personal preference, however other features -- such as the style of the slats that are on the crib or whether it can be converted into a toddler bed -- can have a significant impact on the user-friendliness of the crib as well as its longevity. The most durable cribs are made of solid wood construction, comply with numerous safety standards, and are easily adjustable to a variety of mattress heights. Some cribs come with distinct features that make them more useful like the Quick Zip Crib Sheet, which allows you to change sheets without taking the entire mattress from the crib.

Generally speaking, you should avoid cribs that have decorative cut-outs, or other decorations that could catch on clothing or pose a risk of choking for children.

It isn't easy to comprehend crib hardware, but it is crucial to ensure security and stability. Most cribs have a system consisting of rectangular blocks, wedges (also known as "shims") and large chocks, also known as step chocks. They're all designed to tighten the contact points between crib and the surface that supports it.

Some shims and chocks are made from soft woods that crack slowly, and can give audible warnings prior to failure, while stiffer wooden materials may break suddenly and with more force. Plastic shims and chocks are also available and can be easier to install since they don't require drilling or screwing into the surface.
