Delivery over 9 months

It's not about any complaints, it's about the time you have to sort out your thoughts and what you might need to sort out before your baby arrives.

Gone are the days when a baby's crib was passed down and used by all the descendants in the family, generation after generation. I don't know how many still keep the crib given to them by their grandparents with the intention of placing it in the room of the family's new baby.

But if we want something new for our baby, which crib would be better to choose? A question that arises especially when you are not yet a parent and are facing this situation for the first time. By the second you already know or already have.

Why is the baby's cot so important? Because, whether it's placed in a room of its own or you're going to make room for it in your bedroom first, the cot is where it will spend most of its time in the first part of its life, becoming the centrepiece of the room both practically and aesthetically. For this reason, we as adults should make wise choices when it comes to designing your baby's room. It is important to make sure that the crib we choose is as beautiful as it is safe for our baby's health.

This is also the reason why wood, as a natural material, is preferred for making cots. In addition to this, wood is also a strong material and if the cot is produced according to European safety standards it will be strong, stable and safe. This is where the care with which it is produced, finished and the amount of wood used comes into play, and this can be seen in the price. But that's the whole point, to choose the best, especially as it will be used for several years by the baby.

Wooden cots are the most recommended and appreciated. They may have locking wheels so that moving the cot is easy. The colours are not aggressive, most of them are finished in neutral, natural or pastel shades which makes them easy to integrate into the room's décor or to match existing furniture. A useful feature of wooden cots is the drawer at the base, which is found on most models. At the same time, the vertical sliding of one of the sides and the possibility of positioning the mattress on several height levels are other advantages sought after in wooden baby cots.

We have seen that wooden cots for babies are also produced in Romania, respecting the international safety standards imposed for this kind of furniture, but either they are very difficult to reach or the presentation is not always attractive. I would like to be countered with examples to present here in the Wooden Review.

In trying to find beautiful wooden cribs made in Romania I was only able to find a few in the classic style, nothing modern, that were made of wood and had a special appeal to us.

Some of them may also have a functional rocking chair for a bit of movement, like this one, which even if it is not a Romanian model, you can find similar models in our shops.

Another advantage of wooden cots is that they can be converted into beds for older children when needed. We also chose a model for those who prefer the modern style, even if we didn't find it here. /Photo

It's a convertible model with five mounting options, depending on the child's age.

And for twins, an interesting space-saving model would be the ideal choice.

Tough choice, isn't it? There are many designs of wooden cribs for children in the shops, so choosing the perfect crib is a matter of taste, safety and budget.
