When you are preparing your home and your overall life for the arrival of a new little one, there are a lot of considerations you need to make. One prime example of that is decorating your home with the appropriate furniture, but especially the nursery above all other rooms.

However, if you have never had a baby before, how can you possibly prepare the baby’s room perfectly so that it’s ready to go the moment your little one arrives? Fortunately, we at Kids N Cribs are here to help you in easing the transition into new parenthood.

We carry a plethora of furniture, accessories, apparel, and other products for your baby, toddler, and children. All of our products are high-quality, dependable, and come from some of the most reputable brands in the industry today. We make shopping for your children easy and seamless.

For those new parents who are struggling to find the best baby furniture, you have come to the right place. Let’s take a look at the four best baby furniture products your home needs prior to your new baby’s arrival.

1.Crib

This is easily one of the most vital pieces of furniture you will need from the very moment your baby comes home for the first time. However, it can be especially difficult to decide on which crib would be best for you and your baby.

There are several important baby crib features that you need to consider before purchasing. For example, you should consider the safety of the crib. Does it have a drop-side? If so, don’t buy it, as that has been found to be a major safety concern for babies.

Are there intricate adornments and carvings? Definitely don’t buy it then because these could injury your baby as well. You should also consider the distance between the slats/bars, which should be 2 ⅜” maximum for optimal safety for your baby.

The mattress is also an imperative feature to consider. It shouldn’t be too soft nor affixed. Another exceptional feature to consider in a crib is its versatility. Can it be changed into a toddler bed? Can it also even potentially be turned into a daybed?

Having a crib that is versatile and grows with your child is not only convenient but also financially responsible. Here are great tips on how to choose a convertible crib so you know just what to look for!

2.Changing Table

It’s no secret that you will have to change diapers-- a lot of diapers in fact! Therefore, you should be prepared for that constant changing early on. You should start with a changing/ dressing table and have that all setup and ready to go in the nursery.

But, there are several features that you need to investigate. It may seem scary to figure out what your changing table needs, but once you consider your space and needs, it should be easy to do!

First, you can figure out what material would be best in your nursery: wood, plastic, or metal. Then, think about the style, which might be the most difficult decision for you to make, as there are so many options.

Then comes the abundance of features. Does it have wheels? Is there a changing pad built-in? A hamper built-in? Is it a dresser-changing table combo? Can it fit in corners? These are all questions that you need to figure out before purchasing, which are all dependent on your convenience and comfortability.

3.Dresser

In the baby’s room, you will need a place to store all of the baby’s many clothes, bibs, and other such objects in a handy location. That’s where a baby dresser comes in. You can purchase dresser and crib combos, which is another point you can keep in mind when buying a dresser. That way, you can save money and accomplish your desired aesthetic! 

When your baby wakes you up at night (we apologize, but it will undoubtedly happen at some point or another), you will need to feed him or her. You may also need to rock them or even read them a story. These are the perfect instances for you to use a rocker or a glider.

A rocker is similar to how it sounds: a rocking chair! A glider, however, is the best combination of a recliner and a rocking chair. It is soundless when being used so you can rock, sway, and get up without waking or disturbing the baby.
