Several of the beds also have multifunctional Features, so you can use them for several periods.

Explanation of bed types for babies and children

Below you will find an explanation of the different bed types for babies and toddlers. There is often some confusion about what people call the different bed types.

Baby bed

The word baby bed is used for actual baby beds, cots and cradles. A baby bed is characterised by being smaller in size, and in addition, there are various other features that make it suitable for children.

Several baby beds come with the option to raise the base, so you do not have to bend down as far to pick up the baby. The side can be removed from several baby beds so they can be used as an early junior bed.

Cradle

A cradle is a baby bed with the option to rock the child from side to side. The movement in a cradle calms the baby and creates the foundation for good sleep. In addition to good sleep, the movements in the cradle also train the baby's own senses.

Cot

A cot has many similarities with a baby bed, the bars allow the baby to look out - even though the baby is "trapped" in the bed. The bars can also function as "support" when the baby is learning to stand up. A cot can also be used as a kind of playpen if you are able to move it.

Junior bed

From when the child is approx. 1½ years Old, you may consider placing the child in their own junior bed. A junior bed is more like a real bed. It varies when the child is ready for a junior bed. The child can have the junior bed until the age of 5-7 depending on size and temperament. Switching from a baby bed/cot to a junior bed is often a big day - both for you as parents and for the child.
