How to Prep Your babybay Bedside Sleeper For Your New Arrival

Your co-sleeping journey begins way before your baby sleeps on their made-just-for-them baby bed side co sleeper for the first time. 

It starts the moment you look around online for the best baby bedside sleeper on the market (hint: you’ve stumbled upon the right page!), chats with fellow parents about bedside crib and bedside bassinet models they love, and click the “Choose Your Babybay” button so that we can get your brand new co-sleeper shipped straight to your door. 

Because when it comes to choosing co-sleepers, it’s not just about finding one that will provide you with feelings of ease after your baby arrives. 

It’s about choosing a bedside sleeper that is easy to unbox, easy to assemble, and easy to make a part of your and your baby’s soon-to-be shared bedroom space.

That’s why when we designed babybay, we had ease in mind. 

Properly assembling your babybay so that your co sleeper attaches to the bed takes just 12 steps, all easily accomplished with tools you already have at home (no trips to the hardware store needed). 

And though the assembly time might be short and simple, that doesn’t mean you’re sacrificing a single ounce of comfort or security. 

Each babybay co-sleeper has been given a gold star for safety from top safety certification organizations (including ASTM International, TÜV Rheinland, and Confidence in Textiles Oeko-Tex). 

So that you’ll have confidence your baby is peacefully sleeping safe and secure, while you’re catching Z’s with full peace of mind.

HOW TO CUSTOMIZE YOUR BABY CO SLEEPER FOR THE MOST COMFORT 

Your little one is unique. And so is your family. Which is why we made it our mission to offer plenty of accessories and customizable color options that will make your %LINK% easily blend into your home (or stand out in your home, if that’s more your style).

Though all babybay bedside sleepers are made of 100% eco-friendly and fully sustainable beechwood (because we believe that caring for the Earth is just as important as caring for your family), you can easily choose untreated, walnut, white, or gray color options to help you personalize your co-sleeper so it feels part of your space. 

(Don’t worry—we never use the harmful glues, chemicals, or paints that you’ll find in most cribs. With us, it’s all-natural, all the time.)

You can even deck your baby co sleeper out with a colorful canopy or choose a tie-on padded crib border that creates a soft nest for your baby while giving a pop of cute with stars or polka dots.

So that by the time you’re finished putting together your babybay, you feel fully ready to welcome your baby home with a soft space all their own!

CONVERT TO A CRIB WITH A BEDSIDE BASSINET CONVERSION KIT

Straight out of the box, your baby co sleeper attaches to bed and keeps your baby secure by sitting flush against your own mattress. But for families who want to have options for converting their bedside crib into a moveable bassinet, the bedside bassinet conversion kit is here to help!

The bedside bassinet conversion kit has a wooden guard rail that can be installed in minutes with wooden locking clips, allowing your baby to sleep soundly—even if your bedside co-sleeper isn’t right next to your bed.

This is a perfect choice for families who have nursery space where their baby can nap (because yep–with the bassinet conversion kit and attachable roller casters you can easily roll your new standalone crib to another room), or who want to have options for how they use their bedside sleeper throughout their journey. 

AFTER UNBOXING: WHAT TO REMEMBER AS YOU START CO-SLEEPING 

Your relationship with babybay doesn’t end the moment that your bedside sleeper is unboxed! We’re here to support you and be by your (bed)side—see what we did there?—through all stages of your cosleeping journey. 

This means if the time ever comes when you feel like your babybay needs a little extra accessorizing—like a breathable, moisture-regulating, mattress pad upgrade or all-natural 100% organic cotton sheets—know that we’ll be here to help you out. 

And if a day ever comes when you’ve used your bedside sleeper for so many kiddos that you could use a few replacement parts—we’ve got you covered on that front too. 

Which is our way of saying, we’re here to help you for the long haul!  Get started on your babybay journey today.

Why a babybay Co Sleeper is Perfect for a Minimal Nursery

Have you been feeling overwhelmed by all the choices of baby products? Then you’re in the right place! Let’s break it down and get simple with the essentials and why babybay® should be at the top of your list…

Easily style your babybay® co sleeper to create a beautiful and relaxing space for you and your baby to safely share.

You don’t need to purchase ALL THE THINGS. At the same time, your budget-friendly or minimal nursery doesn’t need to be an empty room with a crib. It might even just be the corner of your own bedroom early on, and that’s ok! You will want to have the most essential items for you and your little one to find a peaceful and relaxing space together. Here are 3 reasons why a babybay® co sleeper bed is the perfect piece to build your nursery around.

1. SKIP THE TRADITIONAL CRIB

Traditional cribs are so BIG and bulky… and expensive! These days many parents now choose to keep their babies near them in their bedroom during the first few months. This is especially true for breastfeeding moms who may need to have easy and quick access to the baby during the night for nursing. Purchasing a separate crib on top of a bedside bassinet is already an added expense, but also means it may be sitting in the nursery collecting dust for months before it gets any use.

You’ll want to soak up as many snuggles as you can with your baby. Keeping them close by your bed allows for as much bonding time as possible with your little one.

If you’re considering a co sleeper like babybay®, then you most likely are planning on some time with your little one near your own bedside and then transitioning to their own room later on. Keeping things minimal in your nursery can leave you more room for a comfortable rocker and more space for your child to play later on. This is especially true if you’re limited on square footage or your children will share a room.

A babybay® is the perfect size to fit next to almost any bedside with your newborn, and easily transitions to keep your little one safe in their own room as they grow.

2. MULTI-PURPOSE FOR THE WIN

When selecting nursery items and looking for budget-friendly options, always look for quality items that can have multiple uses. For example, you need a place to change your baby, but not necessarily a changing table. Add a changing pad to the top of a dresser, create a portable basket with diaper supplies and a roll-up mat for a quick change on any surface. Try to avoid items that will only be useful for a short time and look for items that can fill multiple needs.

One of the many great features of a babybay is the flexibility to adjust and grow with your child. From a co sleeper, to stand-alone bassinet, to a bench, a play space, a desk, or many other options. The sturdy beechwood construction and conversion kits for different stages will ensure your piece lasts for years as your child grows up or adapts through the transitions as younger siblings join your family later on.

3. ALL THE SLEEPING ESSENTIALS IN ONE PLACE

With so many choices out there it’s easy to get to a point of decision fatigue. It’s exhausting to search through what to pick, from where, and tons of options from endless stores. We’ve made it very simple for you with our 3 babybay® co sleeper bed models to choose from, mattresses, and even organic cotton Jersey sheets in a variety of colors.

Choose the model and accessories to fit your space and your nursery style. Conveniently delivered and easy to assemble in just a few minutes, we guarantee a stress-free and great experience with your babybay.

Safe Co-Sleeping for With Bedside Co Sleeper Bed

For new parents, always being close to their baby is a priority. That includes being close to the baby during sleeping hours. The notion of co-sleeping refers to sleeping with your baby close to you, often with a reach of your arm. Co-sleeping generally means the baby is near, but in a different bed.

The babybay® bedside co sleeper bed attaches right to the parents’ bed.

For several years now, more parents have been adopting this practice of co-sleeping, with the infants sleeping nearby in a co-sleeping cradle. This aligns with the guidelines set out by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), which advises parents not to sleep with a new baby IN a parent bed, for obvious reasons. Let’s look at some of the benefits of co-sleeping arrangements.

Benefits of Co-Sleeping

Ideally, as a baby sleeps in a bedside co sleeper bed next to the parents’ bed, the baby receives feelings of comfort, security and reassurance. Having the baby near to the parents’ bed gives the parents the ability to calm the baby without having to stand up and walk over to an unattached crib across the room or in another room.

Also, as both baby and parents sleep more soundly, this shared sleep provides benefits to both. The parent is at arm’s length to calm the baby if it awakes, and slowly massage the baby back to sleep. The baby gains a more balanced development in the early months of life, without sleep anxieties or other issues arising.

Find the Right Co-Sleeping Bed

At babybay, we take co-sleeping very seriously. Our babybay bedside co sleeper bed is one of the leading co-sleeping beds made for infants, and it’s largely because of the high attention of quality materials we put into the bed.

We make our babybay beds with untreated solid beech wood. This means the wood is untreated, made from sustainably managed forests, and is pollutant-free. Our babybay bed features 10 different adjustable height positions, giving parents the flexibility to adjust to the parent bed size. If you want to move the babybay around your living space, you can also pick up an optional side safety gate and castor wheels set for extra mobility.

If you’re a new parent, you owe it to yourself to check out a new babybay bedside co sleeper bed. Our beds are solid and durable, and the quality wood design enhances the bedroom’s aesthetics. The co-sleeper can also be turned into a bassinet bed or play crib as your baby grows. Simply order our Bassinet Conversion Kit to convert your babybay from a bedside co sleeper bed to a standalone bassinet.
