As your baby will spend a great deal of time in his or her nursery during the first few years, make sure you choose a baby cot, bassinette or toddler bed carefully.  You’ll find many different styles, made from a variety of materials, and offered in a huge selection of colours and finishes.

Baby Cots and Bassinettes

Consider the following options to determine which cot, or bassinette will best suit your family’s needs over time.

  • Baby bassinettes: Enjoy the convenience of a bassinette (or Moses basket), which you’ll move from place to place for the first three or four months of your baby’s life.  Most bassinettes feature a hood and an oval sleep area.
  • Baby cradles: Rock your baby to sleep by placing a cradle (a small bed) near your bed for the first few months.
  • Standard cots: Standard cots may have one or two drop sides for placing baby inside. Get double drop sides for more versatility.
  • The release mechanism for the drop sides may be metal rods, trigger releases, or knee releases.  Find some popular cots by BabyCo, Boori and others.
  • Portable cots: Add a foldable portable cot (or porta cot) to your nursery list to make travelling with your baby easier.
  • Canopy cots: Make a fashion statement in your nursery with a canopy cot equipped with posts and a frame for securing a fabric canopy.

Whether you get a standard or portable cot for your nursery, you’ll also need to equip the cot with a standard mattress.  Many options are available, including both foam mattress and innerspring mattress.  For maximum safety, however, be sure to select a firm mattress.

Toddler beds

Transition your child from the cot to a bed with a toddler bed. Toddler beds are set lower to the ground, use a standard size cot mattress, and can be found in fun styles including fire truck beds, princess beds, and the ever popular race car bed.

Other Essential Nursery Furniture

  • Baby change tables: Create a safe nappy changing area in your nursery with a change table and changing table pad.  A well-designed change table holds the supplies you need to care for the baby at nappy-changing time.  Get a change table with dresser drawers if you like the idea of using it when your baby no longer needs nappies.
  • Dressers or drawers: Choose a dresser or drawers that meet your needs for storing and organising clothing, nappies, and baby supplies, or maybe even toys and books.
  • Baby furniture sets: Achieve the look of a coordinated nursery with a furniture set (sometimes listed as combos or combinations), which offer similarly designed changing tables, dressers, and other pieces.
  • Rockers and bouncers: Get a comfy and cozy baby rocker to lull your baby to sleep.  Baby bouncers come in a wide variety of finishes and upholstery styles and a great for baby feeding and nap times.
