Babies spend a lot of their time in dreamland. That is why it is important to invest in a safe and comfy baby cot for their nursery. Baby cots give you a peace of mind when your newborn is snoozing away, so you can clock in that much-needed rest too.
Being an expat in Singapore and seeing so many different brands out there, you might be confused where to find the best baby cot in this city-island.
Choosing A Baby Cot For Your Home
When shopping for a baby cot, there are a few things to consider. One of the most important factors is safety. You need to look for a cot that meets safety standards. This will ensure that the cot is sturdy and has no sharp edges or corners that could harm your child.
Another important factor to consider is size. Make sure to measure the space where you plan to place the cot, and choose a cot that will fit comfortably in that area. As space becomes more of premium and property prices continue rising, house owners have started to seek more durable and long-lasting furniture for the home they now plan to stay longer in.
Additionally, it is essential to ensure that the cot you choose is easy to clean, especially in Singapore's tropical climate. A cot with a removable and washable mattress cover and a smooth surface will make cleaning and sanitising a breeze.
You will also want to think about how long you plan to use the cot. Some cots can convert into a toddler bed, which can save you money in the long run. A popular option is Picket & Rail’s Baby Cot Convertible Companion Cabinet, which has been specially designed for the practical and space-conscious Singapore family home.

The Picket & Rail Baby Cot Convertible Companion Cabinet is a shelving unit that can fit a standard baby cot, which later can be replaced with study desks or a settee as the child grows. It comes in a variety of colours and finishings and its price starts from SGD 599.
It is not only eco-considerate and sustainable but also helps keep all wet wipes, diapers, tissues, towels, clothes, spray bottles, changing mats, mobiles, nail clippers, and grooming accessories within easy reach.
It is made from 100% formaldehyde-free virgin wood and comes in a variety of wood and colours such as maple, walnut and pine. It comes in customisable size and cabinets from 1.8m to 2.4m tall and 1.6m to 2.4m wide.
