Safety
When choosing a cot a safe sleeping environment is a must. The mattress should fit snugly and there should be no gaps between the mattress and the ends or sides of the cot/cot-bed (large gaps can hold the child's arms and head). Check that the mattress is not too firm and thin. Mattresses that are thick could increase the risk of SIDS. Many companies offer a range of mattresses, from simple foam to natural substances for allergy sufferers. Some even come with anti-microbial treatment. If your cot has drop-sides, ensure that it is locked and in the upward position.
A drop side should only be allowed to fall only if an adult is present, this prevents accidental releases. If your cot has a solid end do not place it against the wall as it can block airflow and could cause the death of a coffin. The latest research suggests that slatted ends may be safer since they permit more airflow.
If your cot is fixed on one side, choose it. It's the most secure choice for your baby as they begin to crawl and pull themselves up. Once your child is confidently standing and climbing, this is a sign they're ready to transition into the junior bed.

When you put your child in their cot, check that there isn't any visible danger. It must be kept away from heaters, power points, windows, curtains and blind cords (these can be strangulation hazards). If you're buying furniture from a secondhand store or an heirloom piece, check for choking hazards like stickers and transfer tapes that could be removed and pose a risk.
