Getting a Feature-Packed Convertible Baby Crib
26th July 2009 by Babies No CommentsWhy should you purchase both a toddler bed and a crib when you may get both when you own a DaVinci Kalani convertible baby crib? This crib is the most recent achievement in the collection of excellent baby cribs from DaVinci, an innovator in convertible baby cribs. As with the other cribs this this collection, the DaVinci Kalini convertible baby crib can be changed from a standard crib to a toddler bed.
Every infant ought to sleep in a crib until he or she reaches around 2 years old. At that point, you may want to switch a baby to a bed. Some parents worry that standard beds are too expansive for babies so they opt to transition those toddlers from cribs to toddler beds. Toddler beds are nearer to the ground and have railings to keep children from sliding out. The DaVinci Kalani convertible baby crib quickly transforms into a toddler bed after the baby is the right age to leave the crib.
If the baby is very small, you ought to position the mattress of the DaVinci Kalani convertible baby crib on the uppermost level. In this way the child is protected by the sides of the crib but is at the same time within your reach. Some new parents employ the baby crib as a diaper changing station, an easy feat if the mattress is up high enough, enabling you to reach in.
The DaVinci Kalani convertible baby crib makes it easy for you to reach in and touch your baby, without having to reach down and pull up. There are no movable parts in this crib and it is remarkably easy to set up. Nearly anyone could set up this crib in almost half an hour. When it is assembled, it is a snap to adjust. You can configure the mattress for several useful locations that are needed after baby gets older.
Even though you need to adjust the mattress as high as possible when your baby is a newborn, you will want to lower the mattress as your baby gets to be larger and starts scooting around his crib. Just before your baby will sit up by himself, you will want to adjust the mattress to the lowest rung in the crib. Older babies often manage to stand themselves up against the sides of the crib so that they are able to keep an eye on their mothers. You obviously want to have the mattress low which allows your baby to stand but not climb out of the crib and to the floor.
Once a little one starts showing you that he is attempting to actively escape from that crib, your baby is too large to sleep in a crib and should be put into a bed. At this point, you may not prefer to have your toddler in a bed, so you could convert the DaVinci Kalani convertible baby crib into a toddler bed for a little while. As your child gets older and outgrows the toddler bed, you can transform the DaVinci Kalani convertible baby crib into a daybed or a youth bed.
