New Baby Travel Cot Bed Mattress Quilted Breathable - For Graco, Redkite And Mamas & Papas 95 x 65 x 5 cm poly cotton Quilted cover Nursery Cot Mattress

Product Information

Neonato Multisport carrycot - 73cm long, 26cm at the foot measured at 5cm from the bottom, 30 across the middle and 29 at the head measured at 5cm from the top. If your baby doesn't need a thick cot mattress, this hauck travel cot mattress sheet might be all that you need. Meanwhile, its Travel Fold collapses even further for maximum portability when you’re visiting friends and family. With a travel cot disassembly is usually a matter of a few minutes (or even seconds) and some of the travel cots on our list fold small enough to fit in a suitcase or overhead locker alongside the stroller.

For frequent travellers they can be as familiar to little ones as their regular bed; helping to aid sleep in a different environment. The Graco Contour Electra comes bursting with added extras, including practical additions like a cot-top changing unit, and fun ones like the mobile and battery-operated unit that plays tunes and vibrates the cot. If you're looking for a new travel cot, check out brands such as Hauck, Red Kite, Baby Dan, Joie, Graco and Cuggl.MFM home tester Jessica said, “The Graco Electra travel cot has proven to be a lovely cot for my 5 month old son.

Regular cots are often made of wood and to disassemble and put in a car or suitcase would be quite a task! Doubling as a playpen, FoldLite conveniently travels from playdates to Grandma’s and anywhere in between. For cosy bedding inspiration, take a look at our list – tried and tested by real parents and their kids. When we put this to the test on a number of travel cots, the distance between the mattress and the top of the cot ended up too short on just about all those we tested (it should be at least 50cm).

Christy, who tested the cot with her tall 2 year old, says: "I loved the fact that the BabyBjorn has no weight limit. For example, if the travel cot will be used for overnight stays at relatives or friends every month, you won’t need to worry too much about weight and the ease of assembly – especially if it can remain constructed.

Children can sleep in a travel cot from birth until about three years old - and travel cots come in a range of sizes - as do travel cot mattresses so ensure you check measurements before making a purchase. The Red Kite Dreamer and Joie Kubbie Sleep also offer co-sleeping but, unlike these, the PopUp has a range of features that make it a really great choice for newborns. The PopUp is the latest offering from the Chicco Next2Me range and is a great option for parents who will be travelling with their young baby a lot in the first 6 months.

Also, the more often you travel, the easier it is to get your money’s worth out of a more expensive travel cot. This makes it a great choice for parents of toddlers in the upper weight and height percentiles, who can use it until their child learns to climb out. It also has longevity: while most travel cots have an upper weight limit of 15kg, this one does not, due to the fact the base sits on the floor. The non-slip backing will ensure the mattress stays firmly in place and the covers are removable and washable to easily deal with any spillages or night-time accidents. The corners are rounded more at the bottom, similar to the pattern of the Koelstra carrycot just not so straight at the head.

If you're looking for longevity beyond that, the Venture TravelPod and the Micralite Sleep 'n' Go have a slightly longer lifespan, but will cost you a little more. We love that the crib has 6 adjustable heights to better help it align the barrier of the crib to the parents' mattress — this is particularly useful if you're travelling and staying in different places. It's definitely not the lightest product on our list, but remove any accessories you're not using (such as the changer or bassinet) and this significantly reduces the weight to make it easier to move or carry. As babies often have nappy leaks and spit up milk, we would recommend looking for waterproof, wipe-clean or machine-washable covers when choosing your travel cot mattress. It's fully breathable and prevents overheating by helping your child regulate their temperature while sleeping.MFM reviewer Helen who tested the Chicco Next2Me Pop Up with her 1-month-old son Alessio said, "The Pop Up works very well as a crib for the early months of a baby’s life, especially for people who will be travelling a lot with a young baby, because it is so easy to put up and down. MFM Consumer and Reviews Editor Christy commented: "It's so easy to set up, which is really useful if you forget how between holidays, or are asking a grandparent to help. Try folding and unfolding the cot several times to check that it locks securely into place every time, and it hasn’t suffered any damage over time that isn’t obvious just by looking at it. You should check that the wheels either lock effectively, or that there are two wheels and two legs, so the cot doesn’t roll unexpectedly. MFM home tester Rovenna, who tried it with her 4-month-old, said, "The fact it has both a raised zip in baby bassinet or a deep bed for toddlers – as well as a comfortable and generously filled built in mattress – is fantastic.
