Begin by removing any bedding such as sheets, blankets or cuddly toys. Then wash them in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Clean the cot including the mattress. Pay particular attention to the corners and crevices. A mattress protector is also a good idea to help reduce the build-up of dust mites and other germs. Next, clean the cot with a soft cloth dampened with baby-safe cleaner or a natural stain removal spray. Use a clean, fresh cloth regularly to wash soapy residue off and keep the surface as clean as it can be. Use a gentle scrub brush to eliminate staining from the mattress. Baking soda can be used to eliminate the lingering smells. Test the cleaning product on a small area of the mattress before using it. If the cot is disassembled it can be more accessible to all its surfaces and corners for thorough cleaning and sanitizing. You can use a mild detergent and warm water solution to clean the mattress and the protector. If the cot is constructed out of wood, you can clean it using a mixture of white vinegar and warm water. This natural disinfectant will kill bacteria without leaving harmful residues or damaging the wood. Test the solution on a small area of the wood to ensure it doesn't cause damage to the wood. Apply the solution using a soft, clean cloth and allow it to dry before taking it apart again. They are easy to move A bedside crib can also be called a bedside bassinet or co-sleeper. It lets your baby sleep right next to your bed. These cribs are compact, portable and easy to move around.

They are usually much smaller than a Moses Basket or standard crib and can be folded and stored away when not in use. They're also easier to reach for nighttime feeds, nappy changes and comforting.

They're also a great option for parents who want to get a good night's rest and are concerned about the risks of co-sleeping. This is due to the fact that the crib is closer to the bed of the parent and is less prone to the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) than co-sleeping in a standard cot or bassinet.
