5. Safety First
When choosing a crib, safety should be the top priority. Be sure that the crib is built well and sturdy, with secure hardware and fittings that are securely fitted. Also, ensure that it is in line with the current CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) guidelines: Less than 2.375 inches of space between slats (that's approximately the size of a soda container) There should be no cutouts or decorative designs in the footboard or headboard and corner posts that are flush with end panels or are very tall. Anything between is a strangulation risk.
Be sure to keep all toys out of the crib, as they pose the risk of choking or suffocation. If you're considering using a baby monitor, make sure you choose one with a clear line of sight so that it doesn't interfere with your view. Also, make sure any cords are out of your baby's reach and securely attached. Finally, never keep cushions, blankets or other baby cribs with positioners. These can lead to choking and suffocation risks, and can be pushed down or kicked by your child.
Do not use cribs that are old because they may have outdated features that can lead to injuries. Even if the crib is in good condition, the slats could be too wide or it may be lacking hardware. Additionally, old cribs may have paint that contains lead or have loose and dangerous screws or bolts.
