Eventually , the time will come when your baby grows out of their crib or cot and makes the transition into a toddler bed. They grow up so fast!

So , is buying a toddler bed worth it? The beauty of these types of beds is that they facilitate an easy transition from a much smaller crib into a child’s single bed once they outgrow their current surroundings or simply become too active for a cot. Many of these beds also allow for the usage of a cot mattress , meaning you don’t necessarily have to invest in an all new set (unless the current one needs renewed).

What should you look for when buying a toddler bed? We’ve compiled a useful guide below which takes the hassle out of searching for the perfect unit:

• A comfortable fit - ideally , your toddler bed frame will secure the mattress tightly without feeling constrained. It’s best to ensure that your child has ample room to toss and turn during the night , and also futureproof
• Consider rails - high rails on the bed help to prevent any calamities or falls. Some of our toddler beds on Shop Toddler Beds come with removable rails , ensuring you can adapt the bed as your child grows.
• Sturdiness - ensure that the toddler frame is of solid construction and durable , but also that it contains a toddler-friendly ends and finish.
