Mini Crib Mattress

2009-09-27T15:25:00.000-07:00

So you have bought a mini crib only to find out it only comes with a thin foam pad?

Yep I know the feeling because it happened to me and our wife when we bought our mini crib.

Hello fellow parent my name is Joel Pearce and my wife and I first purchased a mini crib with our first child. We were very impressed with our buy until we seen the mini crib mattress. I remember my wife saying to me this can't be right? Is this really the mattress that comes with the mini crib?

We contacted the company we bought it of and yes it only comes with a foam pad. It was disappointing to say the least but there was nothing we could do about it but buy another mini crib mattress.

But it was one of the best decisions we made, we could finally put our baby to sleep in a comfortable bed. Sure it cost us more money but can you put a price on your babies sleeping arrangements?

We only wanted the best for our baby and if it meant I had to do some over time at work, well so be it!! We actually went with the Davinci sunshine mini crib mattress simply because we owned a davinci mini crib.

So if you own a mini crib and are thinking of buying another mini crib mattress just do it!! From our personal experience it will be the best money you will spend and your baby will love it.

For great mini crib bedding please keep reading.

Dear fellow parent.

I started this site around 8 months ago to help parents find all their mini crib and porta crib needs. Here you will find top quantity bedding for your mini crib and I believe we have the largest range of bedding for a mini crib available. Yes there are other websites that have bedding for your mini crib but I assure you they have a very small range and the quality is very poor.

Finding a matching set is an unbelievable task and if you do not believe me “well” I challenge you to find another company that has a larger range and provides complete matching sets for mini cribs and porta cribs. Who knows maybe you will, but is the quality going to be the same? Not very likely!!

Like I said this site has been developed to help parents find quality mini crib bedding that comes in a matching set. It really is ridiculous companies sell mini cribs but don’t stock any actual bedding that will fit your mini crib perfectly. We all know that bedding is a very important part of a baby’s life and it is also extremely important for your baby’s safety. I am a parent myself and when we purchased a mini crib I just couldn’t believe how hard it was to find and that is the main reason I started this site.

But look there’s no need to worry because all your mini crib bedding needs are on this site and you will love the quality, softness and durability of the bedding we supply.

OH and did I mention that you also have the option of choosing between...

1. Jersey knit

2. Cotton flannel

3. percale material

Yes that's right!! We give you the choice of three different materials for your mini crib. But if you don't mind I would like to sweeten the pot even more for you just for being my personal customer.

The more you spend with us the more we will give you!!

If you decide to spend $75 we will ship your products to you free of charge.If you wish to spend $150 we will ship it to you free of charge and throw in a free matching security blanket also. You really have nothing to lose here.

But that's not all I'm going to do for you!!! I also want to give you some free gifts!!!

Head over to babytobee and just sign up and you will get yourself tons of free stuff for your baby.

Look this has been very hard work on my behalf to put all this together for you so I know for a fact you are not going to find a better deal then what I just offered you here. So take advantage of everything I'm offering here and you will be very very happy, just remember to tell your friends about this site so every parent gets the best possible deal on there mini crib bedding.

OK enough blabbering from me! lets have a look at 4 sets that may interest you, but if you don’t like them well that’s OK because you can simply chose the designs you like and of course the material.

Now if those are not what your after "Well" like I said not to worry simply check out the full range Here. All you have to do is choose the material you like then choose your sheet design and order your set. Simple!!

Look here’s the deal we basically give you total control of what you wish to order. If you just want to order sheets? Well just order sheets!! This really is the best part, we are not going to make you order a whole set if you don’t want to. That’s just silly and we truly believe "YOU" The Parent should be in total control of what you buy for your baby.

If you would like to request a custom quote from us you can do so Here

Now look if that's not enough to convince you that we are the best bedding suppliers around, then you can check out what our customers are saying. We supply all types of bedding for just about anything!!

Baby Crib Advice and Tips

2007-07-26T19:16:00.000-07:00

Congratulations! You have just learned that you are having a baby. Whether this is your first or not you need to look at cribs. Do you have one already? Is it an antique? A second hand crib whether antique or not needs to be carefully looked at. This is for the safety of your new baby.

The screws, bolts, and/or other fasteners should all be in place. Are they loose? Will the position of the mattress hold under your baby's weight? It is imperative that this be tested before you put your baby in the crib. Take something that approximates the weight of your baby at about 4 months old. Bounce it off the mattress to be certain it will hold its position. If it doesn't it could cause serious injury to your baby or worse.

When setting up the nursery (if it isn't already up) consider very carefully where you will place the crib. If you place the crib near a window and you have Venetian blinds, either shorten the cords or anchor them somewhere that your baby can't reach and get a hold of them. If it all possible avoid placing the crib near the window. As your baby grows into a toddler and s/he attempts to climb out of the crib; s/he could possibly fall which could cause serious injury to your baby.

Blankets and your baby are not necessarily a good mix. With the incidents of SIDS today, you want to be sure to do everything that could possibly put your infant at risk. It is more advisable to put your baby to bed in a sleeper. If you absolutely have to have a blanket on the baby, tuck it tightly around and under the foot of the mattress with your baby's feet touching the footboard. Also you don't want to put the blanket any higher on the baby than up to his chest as that will help prevent him from slipping under the blankets and suffocating.

Bumper pads are a great concept but unless they are secured properly, there is a risk of your baby slipping between the mattress and the bumpers and possibly suffocating. If you use them they should be anchored in at least eight places one at each corner of the crib and at least two spaced evenly on each of the sides. There should be a total of 16 ties in all, for the top and bottom.

Mobiles are a nice addition and look adorable but... the caution here is that if you use a mobile as soon as your baby starts to sit up on his own the mobile should be taken down to prevent your baby from getting tangled in it. Also make sure that it has no small removable parts that your baby could choke on.
If your crib is second hand no matter whether you had for a previous child or you got it from someone else check out the mattress carefully. Make sure there are no cracks or holes in the mattress covering. Make sure too that the mattress properly fits in the crib. Here again, your child could slip between the mattress and the sidebars or the end boards and suffocate. The mattress should fit snugly in the crib. Now the sheets you use in your baby's crib should also fit properly and not slip and slide. Sheet anchors are available that hook on the sheet under the mattress and keep it in place.

The position of the mattress is imperative for your child's safety. Most parents put the mattress at the highest position when the baby first comes home because it is so much easier to change him in that position. As your baby becomes more active you will want to lower the mattress accordingly. Once your baby is able to pull up to a standing position put the mattress in the lowest possible position and to be sure your baby is safe, measure the distance between the top of the side bar and the mattress. In the lowest position the distance of the top of the side bar should be no more than 26 inches above the mattress. If your child's head is over the side bar or they climb out of the crib, it maybe time to move your child to a regular bed. Some cribs are convertible into beds tat will grow with your child.

The crib itself should be looked over for things that might put your baby at risk. Have you seen those cribs that have ornate designs carved into the end boards? They are beautiful but they pose a danger to your child. Your child could get his head or arm and leg caught and sustain an injury. The simpler the design of the crib the safer your child may be.

Since approximately 1974 federal safety guidelines for cribs state that the slats should be no more than 2 3/8 inches apart. This is to prevent your baby from getting his head stuck between the slats. This could cause injury to your baby but it would necessitate the removal of some of the slats and that alone would

Designer Crib Bedding For Your Baby

2007-07-26T19:11:00.000-07:00

Having a baby is one of the most natural and exciting things to happen to a family. Many people feel that their family is not complete without children of their own and the nine months from conception to birth is filled with enthusiasm and preparation.

One of the most exciting parts of the process for parents-to-be is the creation of a nursery for the newcomer. Babies obviously require a large amount of specific equipment, such as changing mats, clothes, toys and a crib. Preparing the nursery so that everything they need is available when they come home makes the impending arrival more real for the household. Choosing the color, style and overall look of the room depends largely on the personalities of the parents but many opt for designer items to ensure that they are of high standards and do the job they were made to do well, whilst looking aesthetically pleasing.

One area which can really alter the overall look of the room is the crib itself and the bedding within. For the first few years, the crib will be the dominating piece of furniture in the room and every visitor to the home will at some point peer in at the newborn as they sleep in their crib. The baby will spend a large proportion of its time sleeping for the first weeks and months so it makes sense to ensure that this is one area which the parents are particularly happy with.

Celebrities are renowned for using the best products and manufacturers for their babies. This endorsement, whether paid or not, brings certain products to the forefront of the public’s mind and many parents feel that if it is good enough for a film star, it is good enough for them and their baby. Finding the products to buy can be a different matter though, particularly if you do not live in or near to a large city. However, the Internet has made it much easier to find whatever product you are looking for and to have it shipped directly to your home.

One website I have found which specialises in designer baby-wear, furniture and bedding is found at www.babyscribsupply.com This site allows you to shop by designer if you wish so that you can easily locate a specific product if you know who made it. Alternatively, you can browse the site by product. Everything you will need for your baby and nursery is available to buy in one place and every product has a photograph to allow you to see it before you buy it.

The crib bedding section has every color and pattern imaginable for your baby. You can view the products by gender of the baby or you all at a time. As I mentioned earlier, this is possibly one of the most important purchases you will make for your child’s nursery as it will be seen and used with such regularity. Once you have selected the bedding you require you can then shop by the designer if you wish to decorate the whole room with the same label, or you can choose additional products which will complement the look you have chosen

Mini crib bedding How to find that bargain

2007-07-26T18:50:00.000-07:00

Hi everyone!! I guess you’re looking for some tips on how to buy crib bedding of the net. This article is for parents that are looking for a bargain or just want to save some money. Finding crib bedding on the net is very easy, but finding the best bargains can take some more time. Most parents will just use their favourite search engine and think that the websites that show up on the first page are the top websites to buy mini crib bedding from. This is not so!! These are the websites that have done the most work to get their websites in the top positions within the search engines.

More than likely you’re not going to get the best bargains with these sites. Yes you can keep going through the search engines rankings and you will get a good idea of the price ranges on offer. But buying anything over the net can be a daunting experience. I know how people feel about handing over credit card information especially over the web. I feel the same way too but I done my research on it and Personally I just use pay pal as a method of payment, if the site I’m looking at doesn’t provide pay pal as a payment option, I move on until I find what I want with a pay pal payment option.

I just want to let you know you can use your credit card without the chance of someone going to steal your personal information. I’m not saying other payment systems aren’t good, its just “personally” I have found most websites have a pay pal payment option. You just type in your user name and password and it’s done.

Ok back to mini crib bedding and how to find that bargain. One method I use is check out blogs [this goes on everything I’m trying to buy cheap or purchase over the net] you can find great sites that other parents have found and recommended. This can be especially good if you’re after someone to custom build your crib bedding. If you social bookmark type in your keywords on your favourite book marking site and see what turns up. Use different search engines. Take note of the websites you have been to and compeer prices.

Then if you find something do some more checking. The site I use is ripoffreport.com its just basically a site I use for free to find out if anyone isn’t happy with the service or product they purchased. If your been ripped off or would just like to tell everyone how bad some sites are with there service’s then this is the site to do it. If the site or product your looking at doesn’t turn anything up there’s a pretty good chance that is legit and has a good reputation. [Another great site to check before buying anything on the net].

And of course there’s eBay and Amazon you can really pick up great bargains from these sites. If you do happen to buy your crib bedding from these sites please discard the mattress and get a brand new one. Many experts in the field have tracked Sids back to second hand mattresses so just get rid of it!!!
Make sure you sanitize the crib really well when you first receive it just to be sure.

Great Bargains on mini crib bedding can be found on the net if you are prepared to look around and do a bit research. It doesn’t just include mini crib bedding. It go’s for anything you can purchase on the net. Surfing blogs can provide a lot of good information on baby products and safety. Most baby blogs are just from your average mum sharing their babies experience with you. There are experts that have their own blogs as well they tend to give you all sorts of information from crib bedding to baby food and baby toys. I have provided this information so parents can check out all sorts of products and sites so they can make an informed decision when it comes to there child’s health and safety.

Using the technics above you should be able to shop with confidence for just about anything on the net. Finding a bargain is quiet easy once you know how.

The Importance of Baby Bedding

2007-07-23T00:45:00.001-07:00

Baby bedding is important to every single mother-to-be. Now that you're about to have a baby, there's a few things that need to be taken care of. Of course, you must have the necessities like bottles, diapers, and cute little clothes. However, up until now, you may have overlooked the area of baby bedding. Why is getting quality bedding important for your baby? Can't you just get some pink sheets?

If only it were that simple. Having a good cradle bedding set can be a lifesaver…literally. Let's examine a few things that come with standard bedding sets.

One of the more important features of the cradle bedding set is the bumpers that go around the crib. These are essential for any crib. They keep your baby safe inside their crib. This keeps them from being stuck or even falling between the bars of the crib. It also softens the edges of the crib. This prevents them from hitting their head on the rails. The bumpers are very important to the safety of your baby.

Another great feature of most crib bedding sets is the mobile that comes with them. It will usually match whichever set you purchase and it serves a great purpose. The mobile will usually feature characters or pieces from the rest of the set. This helps tie it into the overall theme. The movement and music can entertain your baby just long enough for them to drift off to sleep. Even if they do only sleep for two hours at a time, this will help you tremendously. They play the sweetest lullabies to keep your baby calm. A good mobile can change your baby's mood from fussy to docile in a matter of moments.

The dust ruffle is also a great thing for the overall appearance of your crib. It gives it a more finished look and blends the crib set with the rest of the room. It helps to hide the under portion of the crib, which provides a more complete feeling.

These features will all go together seamlessly. The entire baby bedding set will help you achieve the look that you want in your nursery. Everyone wants their baby's room to be special. With a matching baby, bedding set you can achieve just that. Be sure to give your baby what they deserve. You want only the best for them and a quality bedding set proves that is exactly what they are getting.

Baby Bedding – A Guide To A Safe Crib.

2007-07-23T00:39:00.000-07:00

Preparing a nursery and purchasing baby bedding is a thrilling time for all parents. A nursery is so colorful and putting your baby to sleep in their little crib is one of life’s little pleasures.

When shopping for your babies crib bedding, the most important thing to bear in mind is your baby’s safety. There are numerous cribs available for us and all with varying prices. Fortunately every new crib that is sold in the U.S. today, as to be certified by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), it will be a secure crib for your baby.

However, if you are looking to buy or have been given a used or antique crib, then you are going to have to check the crib’s safety guidelines to ensure that is meets present guidelines. The crib’s slats shouldn’t be further than 2 3/8 inches apart; this will help prevent your baby getting his head entangled between them.

Perhaps you have heard of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), this is where a baby under one year of age dies unexpectedly during sleep. However, there are some simple safety measures you can undertake to protect your baby. Firstly, always set your baby to sleep on their back and be certain to utilize a firm mattress. There shouldn’t be any soft bedding in the crib, no pillows, stuffed toys, quilts or comforters. Nothing that is soft and no loose bedding. Your baby’s crib should only have a bottom fitted sheet and this sheet should be tight. Always ensure that it is well tucked in, so there’s no loose fabric that your baby can pull at.

You will find that there are two kinds of mattresses available for your baby’s crib, foam and innerspring. Foam mattresses are economical and also lighter, which helps when you are changing the sheets. The higher the density of the foam mattress, the enhanced quality it will offer to your baby. Innerspring mattresses are more expensive than there foam counterparts but as a rule they do last longer. If you are shopping for an innerspring mattress, then you should look to obtain a mattress with a minimum of 150 coils inside.

The crib will be used by your baby until he/she is 2-3 years old. Ensure that it is stable and be certain that it meets the above regulations. Don’t let you’re baby sleep on a bed and don’t let you’re baby share your bed, it just isn’t safe for your baby.

We hope you find this guide helpful to you. However, before buying any bedding for your baby, we do urge you to do some research on SIDS and learn the facts.

Baby Nursery Bedding - Too Much Too Choose From?

2007-07-02T18:55:00.001-07:00

From sports to dinosaur baby boy bedding, from lily to lace baby girl bedding – today’s parents-to-be are faced with an enormous amount of baby bedding choices on the web. Many parents use their crib bedding selection as the focal point of the nursery. They choose the perfect bedding for their baby then build the room off the colors of the selection.

As a parent full of anticipation, you are left with the question of “Where do I even begin?”

The best way to tackle your search is to LIMIT your search. Here are some tips on helping you narrow down your choices:

1. Start with a Theme Think about a baby bedding theme you would like for your nursery - Sports, animal/jungle, floral, stripes and plaids, and moon and stars are just a few of the examples you will find. Once you have a theme, you are a headed in the right direction.

2. Is it a boy or girl or ??? If you know your going to be having either a boy or a girl, this part should be very easy! However if you are waiting for the surprise, There are many selections listed as “neutral” gender so you can choose a theme that is suitable for either a boy or a girl. Choosing a neutral gender baby bedding collection for your baby can be very fun. The nursery can have a calm, contemporary, gender neutral feel and then when baby comes you can add accessories til your heart is content to make it look either very masculine or very girly.

Typically, from the time you place your order to the time you receive the bedding is about 2-3 weeks.

Choosing Baby Bedding for your Marvelous Baby

2007-07-02T18:52:00.000-07:00

When you choose bedding for your baby the one which can guarantee optimum baby bedding safety and coziness to your baby is your only option and the best fabric for is 100 percent cotton.

Following are descriptions of the different types of bedding available for each type of baby furniture.

- Crib Bedding. For the first year of the baby's life, the crib is its ideal bed. Cribs are available many different types and they all need to be durable and strong. You can choose the standard crib or go for a more expensive crib such as a convertible / portable crib which is ideal for traveling. It is best to choose the crib from a reputable company and the one you decide on must have no protruding pieces that the baby could knock against and hurt itself. All screws and bolts etc need to be securly fastened and you should check these often.

- Bassinet Bedding. These are suitable for the baby for the first 3 or 4 months only. A perfect bassinet will have a soft mattress and a blanket. It should be made of a soft material with ideally the color blending with the baby's room colors, design and decor.

- Cradle bedding. Cradles have a gentle rocking motion which ensures that your baby sleeps soundly. Light colored cradles are preferred by parents because they not only look attractive but you can notice when they get wet.

- Baby blankets. Blankets should be of a soft material and of course must be non-toxic. Today there are many types of blankets to choose from that are soft, smooth and pleasant smelling with attractive and eye pleasing colors.

Bedding for the baby could differ depending on whether it is a boy or a girl, or alternatively it could be gender neutral as well. The color combination and cute looking cartoons are common to both the baby boys and baby girls.

For the girls, the baby bedding is often in shades of pink, light blue and purples, and a baby girl's bed is laid out fit for a princess. A baby boy's bed is sometimes sport oriented, themed around super sport heroes, wrestling personalities or football and baseball stars. The colors tend to be darker and bolder for boys, often blue but also reds and intermingled with dark blue or black.

There is no hard and fast rule for baby bedding. You will see a lot of neutral nursery bedding themes with cartoons such as Disney and Popeye characters or cute animations.

The baby in its first few years is too small to understand the difference about having gender specific cartoons and animals and they are attracted to anything which is coloful; if it is pleasing to your eyes and makes you smile, it will do the same for your baby. When they get a little older, little boys would feel a little awkward having his bed done in pinks and pastels!

When baby girls grow older, their bedroom could have blinds with the curtains hanging on rods above. This gives the bed somewhat a princess bed appearance - afterall, that baby girls of yours is a princess, isn't she!

Bedding is one interesting aspect where there are a lot of options for the parent - choosing the kinds and textures of sheets and the choices of colors and baby bedding patterns. It is up to you if you choose gender neutral baby bedding or something which would make your baby girl feel like a princess or your baby boy feel like a superhero!

Round Baby Cribs

2007-06-17T22:29:00.002-07:00

While many people prefer rectangular cribs, more and more round baby cribs are finding their way into baby rooms all over the world! Round baby cribs have an advantage in that they do not have any sharp corners or joints. They are considered safer than rectangular cribs as they eliminate many child safety hazards.

Another advantage of a round shape is that it offers baby a view of the surroundings in all directions and 360-degree visual stimulation. Moreover, the round shape makes it convenient for the crib to be placed in the center of the room, thus optimizing space. It also allows parents an unobstructed view of the baby from anywhere in the room, thus giving them freedom of movement and easy access to the child from any and every angle. The round shape also allows more room for the baby, as the width automatically increases without any increase in the overall size of the crib.

However, round baby cribs pose the problem of finding appropriate bedding. Unless the cribs come with their own bedding, it is difficult to find articles of baby bedding in a round shape. For instance, replacing a round baby crib mattress is considerably more difficult than replacing a rectangular mattress.

As with rectangular cribs, round cribs may or may not have a canopy and valance. But if there is a top, it is easier to hang toys, as the shape ensures that toys will hang in the centre of the crib and baby can look up easily, no matter which direction he or she is placed.

Where To Buy Crib Bedding

2007-06-17T22:29:00.001-07:00

Mothers-to-be are increasingly opting for the Internet as a choice to start the process of decorating their nurseries. With the rapid increase in popular brands of themed crib bedding being offered by online sellers, there are presently hundreds, perhaps thousands, of options available for customers to choose from.

Online sellers, retailers or manufactures, dealing in crib bedding can solve the problem of consumers having to choose from a large number of crib bedding, to some extent, as it is virtually impossible for any store to have all the brands in their stock. Although online sellers normally provide a much more extensive selection than any store, they are often of little help to customers who are trying to locate crib bedding that is ideal for them. Having hundreds of crib bedding options can sometimes become a liability, rather than an asset, if suitable tools are not available to efficiently assess all the choices.

Each day there is a growing number of crib bedding collections offered by a host of crib bedding manufacturers. People can buy crib beddings from the manufacturers who are flooding the market with crib beddings along with accessories based on a wide assortment of decorating themes. In addition to the regular crib pieces, these collections often incorporate features as coordinating mobiles, hampers, pillows, night-lights, valances, diaper stackers, light switch plate covers, bookends, lamps, and other accessories. Individuals can consider buying crib beddings in neutral colors if they are not sure what the sex of the newborn baby will be.

Crib bedding and accessories are manufactured by a large number of designers. Some of these manufacturers offer exceptional sets of design, accessibility, cost, and value characteristics that have to be considered by customers.

Customers can also buy crib bedding from retailers who offer quality bedding for infants. Another source is baby stores, which offer crib bedding, baby linens, and all accessories in various price ranges. Crib bedding can also be purchased from shopping malls, which offer quite a few options to consumers.

Unique And Custom Crib Bedding

2007-06-17T22:28:00.000-07:00

More and more parents use the internet to find their baby bedding. Although many baby stores offer great choices of crib bedding, paying them a visit is not always the most convenient way for a lot of parents. This is due to different reasons but the most frequently evoked are location and lack of time. Besides, since many stores actually offer the same products online, shopping online turned out to be the logical solution. It allows both parents to actually shop together and make their choice right from the comfort of their home.

Nowadays, more and more parents try to avoid the "mass produced" crib bedding and turn toward unique even custom-made crib bedding. Unique bedding are far outnumbered by the ordinary ones, and therefore they are offered at more expensive prices.

What makes a crib bedding unique? It may be its unusual color, or pattern. For instance, if you are expecting a little girl and are looking for an alternative to pink bedding, you might want to try looking into the unique bedding. The design used on the bedding could also be different, chic and rare.

Custom-made bedding are not necessarily as expensive as one could think. Some are made at a surprisingly affordable price. If you happen to be the lucky parents to find those, be sure to thoroughly inquire the options offered. Chances are you will find one that fits your need.

Crib bedding are custom-made when you are allowed to provide the design you like, or the material of your choice or both. If you are looking for truly unique crib bedding for your baby, which a lot of first time parents are, custom bedding could be the way to go. Is there a fabric that you really love? Do you wish you had a crib bedding made out of it? It is now possible to achieve that, custom-made bedding is the solution to realize your wish.

Another great way to customize your baby items including your bedding is to add embroidery to them. There are a variety of options including adding your baby's initials, names and other fun decorative patterns.

There is an inconvenience for having your baby bedding custom-made: it will not be possible for you to see the finished product until it is actually done. The advantages are however far greater: the joy and excitement of envisioning your nursery with the new bedding, the satisfaction you will have when you will finally hold it in your hand. That simply is priceless!

Decorating A Child Safe Nursery

2007-06-11T20:18:00.000-07:00

Homes with children and homes without children have to be decorated differently, for many obvious reasons. Babies and toddlers are curious and will reach out for anything and everything, so their homes must be "child-proofed."

Preparing a baby's nursery is one of the most enjoyable activities that the parents can do. But it is also one of the most important. Indeed, when a new baby - or toddler - is on the way, the entire house must be prepared for them. Babies and toddlers will stick their fingers into light sockets, stick their heads through bars in their cribs, and place anything and everything in their mouths. So the whole house must be child-proofed.

But decorating the nursery, just like decorating any new room for a new start, is fun.

The crib

The baby must have a crib, and the crib must be safe for the baby. Babies will chew on the bedding, so its important that the blankets don't have chemicals that can get into the baby's bloodstream. Care must be taken with toys for the same reason - and no small toys must ever be given to babies or toddlers.

As the child grows and becomes mobile, they will start investigating everything. So you'll want to make sure the crib has railings so close together that there's no chance that the baby can get its head through those railings, and become trapped. You also don't want the crib easily broken.

There are plenty of stores that will sell cribs and other nursery furniture, including Babies R Us, which is dedicated only to that age group, but also the larger chains such as Walmart or overstock.com. If you're on a budget it is of course possible to pick up furniture and clothing from used-clothing stores and garage sales. Buying used is perfectly fine - why pay a lot of money for clothing that will only be worn for a month or two before the child grows out of it? Used cribs have probably seen several year's use, but as long as the crib is made solidly, it should last for a long time.

Security

Baby monitors have been in use for several years now, so that parents can put a baby down and relax in another room, confident that if the baby should wake and start crying they'll be able to hear it immediately. Now that security cameras are so inexpensive, it's a good idea to incorporate one of those as well.

If a light socket is not used, make sure you place a plastic tab in the empty socket to prevent little fingers from poking them and getting a shock.

Furniture Bassinets, changing tables, toddler beds, strollers/walkers, and portable cribs will each need to be used, for varying lengths of time. Again, unless you're planning on having multiple kids, it's usually not necessary to buy these things new - when used will do. Simply make sure that anything you do buy is not broken - or cheaply made to begin with!

All furniture, from beds to bookcases to wardrobes (for those growing toddlers!) should be child-sized. This will enable kids to easily put things away, instead of leaving items on the floor for their long-suffering parents to pick up.

Wall Decorations Babies and toddlers are too young to know what they do or do not like, so of course the parent has to make that decision for them. You can go for stereotypes - pink for girls and blue for boys, or explore a whole range of colors and decorations.

Wall paint is no longer made with lead, which was the bane of children everywhere for many years. Nevertheless if you're going to paint the walls of the room make sure that it's an easily washable paint. Wallpaper is good, just apply it properly so little fingers can't get between any cracks, peel off the paper and eat it!

With a little imagination and a lot of care, baby and toddler will have a safe nursery in which to grow.

Why You Absolutely Must Use an Organic Crib Mattress for Your Baby

2007-06-06T19:22:00.000-07:00

When a woman is pregnant, we say she's "expecting". For soon-to-be mothers, that doesn't just mean she's expecting a baby - she's expecting giggles and coos, dirty diapers, tiny toes to keep warm, and a little one to help stay healthy for years and years to come. There's so much concern over the minutest choices a new mom makes, it's hard to keep it all straight. The most important detail I've ever heard regarding an infant in its first year is this - your new baby, between the ages of birth and one year, will sleep more than 70% of the time. Given that statistic, where your new baby sleeps is probably the most important decision you have to make before you welcome him or her into your house.

In a bit, we'll talk about the health benefits of an organic crib mattress and why it's best for your baby; but first, let's look at some of the dangers of traditional crib mattresses and how they might be linked to SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).

What is SIDS?

New and expecting mothers have heard about the danger of SIDS over and over again, but we're rarely given an answer. We're told the cause is unknown and that little can be done to prevent it. We'll wake up dozens of times during the night just to make sure our baby is breathing. We lay our babies on their sides, swaddled with blankets at their back, just to make sure they don't roll over and sleep in a prone position - a common belief of a contributor to SIDS.

However, new research has brought us closer to understanding what exactly may be the cause of SIDS. For dozens of years, new mothers may have been laying their babies down on the cause of SIDS - chemical-laden crib mattresses and portable crib mattresses.

Crib Mattresses and Their Relation to SIDS.

Unlike organic crib mattresses, the traditional crib mattress contains chemicals like arsenic, phosphorus, and antimony. These were added to the mattresses initially with the best of intentions, as they act as fire retardants. However, before manufacturers added these chemicals to their mattresses, SIDS was rarely heard of. Afterward, the death rate skyrocketed in newborns.

As more and more people began to look at the relationship between non-organic crib mattresses and portable crib mattresses and SIDS, science discovered a very scary possibility.

As crib mattresses start to age, these fire retardant chemicals react with ordinary household fungi (harmless fungi, at that) to create a very, very dangerous chemical reaction. The toxins emitted, as these compounds interact, are actually a thousand times more toxic than carbon monoxide. While other factors like nutrition, smoking around the baby, and sleep position are still potentially factors in SIDS, given the research relating non-organic crib mattresses to fatal toxin release should be enough for new mothers to take a look at their portable and non-portable crib mattress purchases.

Why are Organic Crib Mattresses Better?

It's no secret that as new parents we want what's best for our babies - whether it's our first or our fifth. Buying organic baby products is a great step towards insuring the health of our children - not only because it's better for them right now, but because organically grown material is better for the environment as a whole. This is the same environment we will pass along to our children and their children in years to come.

Organic crib mattresses are produced without any of the harmful chemicals traditional non-portable and portable crib mattresses contain. They're made of 100% organic material, most of which is organic cotton. Organically grown cotton is great for the environment and absolutely the healthiest choice you can make for you and your family.

Because organic crib mattresses don't contain any of the harmful chemicals that could potentially be the cause of SIDS, you can put your baby to sleep knowing you're doing your absolute best for him or her. And, as I mentioned earlier, because new babies sleep over 70% of their first year, resting their heads on the safest material you can get is a big step towards insuring their future health.

What Kind of Organic Crib Mattress Should I Look For?

Buying organic baby items and organic household items can sometimes be tricky. In the grocery store, we're bombarded with labels claiming "pure" and "organic". But how do we know if they really are?

In order to meet federal regulations, before a company can stamp their product with "organic" they have to meet several requirements. This is the case, as well, with organic baby mattresses.

The material must meet standards like being produced from renewable resources and include the conservation of soil and water to ensure the health of the environment for the future. If a product is stamped as 100% organic, by federal law, it must be exactly that. It cannot contain ingredients that harm the environment or are synthetically produced.

When you're purchasing your new organic crib mattress or portable crib mattress, look for those that say 100% organic. Also make sure that it clearly states that they don't contain arsenic, phosphorus, or antimony. These two little steps will ensure that you're getting a mattress that is clean, safe, and perfect for your new little angel.

After the Baby is Born - Infant Safety

2007-06-06T19:21:00.000-07:00

It has been recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics that infants be placed to sleep on their backs to reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), also known as crib death. SIDS is defined as the sudden and unexplained death of a baby less than 1 year of age. There are some things that you can do to make your baby safer according to the AAP:

# The baby should always be placed on his or her back to sleep, even for naps. This is the safest sleep position to reduce the risk of SIDS for a healthy baby. You can place your baby on a firm mattress, for example - in a safety-approved crib. It has been shown through research that placing a baby to sleep on soft mattresses, sofas, sofa cushions, waterbeds, sheepskins, or other soft surfaces raises the risk of SIDS.

# It is advisable to remove soft, fluffy, and loose bedding and stuffed toys from your baby's sleep area. You should make sure to keep all pillows, quilts, stuffed toys, and other soft items away from the baby's sleep area.

# Everyone who cares for your baby should know to place your baby on his or her back to sleep and about the dangers of soft bedding. You can make sure of this by talking to child care providers, grandparents, babysitters, and all caregivers about SIDS risk. Every sleep time counts.

# Your baby's face and head should stay uncovered during sleep. Blankets and other coverings should be kept away from your baby's mouth and nose. Dressing the baby in sleep clothing is the best way so no other covering can be used over the baby. If any other covering is used, one can make sure that the baby's feet are at the bottom of the crib, the blanket is no higher than the baby's chest, and the blanket is tucked in around the bottom of the crib mattress.

# Smoking must not be tolerated around your baby. Remember not to smoke before or after the birth of your baby.

# Make sure your baby does not get too warm during sleep. Your baby's room should be kept at a temperature that is comfortable for an adult. Too many layers of clothing or blankets will overheat your baby.

Some mothers often worry about the baby rolling over during the night. However, the risk for SIDS is reduced when your baby is able to roll over by herself. Most babies are not able to turn over from their backs to their stomachs, during what is considered the time of greatest risk, 2 to 4 months of age.

Crib Bedding Sets

2007-06-06T01:27:00.000-07:00

There are many manufacturers who hire designers to make crib-bedding sets. Most offer unique designs, reasonable prices and a quality product. Many custom design the sets with darling themes and characters. Shoppers often times base the look of a baby's nursery on the crib bedding sets they have chosen. Crib bedding sets can include pillows, valances, comforters, sheets and pillowcases, as well as curtains, valances, and lamps.

Of course, with any crib bedding, safety is of the utmost importance. Most experts agree the safest baby cribs are pretty much bare. Any blankets, comforters, pillows, etc can cause suffocation and may be a cause of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

There is a product known as the Halo Sleepsack that is a wearable blanket. It is highly recommended as it can be worn over pajamas, and will keep baby warm posing no threat of suffocation. Many manufacturers are making different versions of sleep sacks, in many different designs and colors. Halo also offers a secure-fit crib sheet that has a wrap-around design secured with Velcro underneath the mattress. It remains safe and secure while baby is sleeping.

Crib bumpers are also made child-safe these days. You can purchase a crib bumper made of mesh that allows air to flow through the crib and protect baby's arms and legs from sticking through the sides of the crib. The old bumpers put baby at risk of not getting enough fresh air.

If you decide that you must have crib bedding, just remember to remove pillows, quilts, comforters, sheepskins, stuffed toys and other soft products from the crib.
