Portable Cribs

A portable crib can be a great item to have when traveling with the baby. It provides a comfortable and familiar place for her to sleep on while away from home. There are many types of portable cribs available, so make sure you get the right one for your baby and be sure to check for safety. Some things to consider are:

• The durability of the crib
• Pick a portable crib that is sturdy
• Make sure that it is constructed well and with quality materials
• Get a crib that has a comfortable mattress

An alternative to a portable crib is a 'Pack and Play' play yard. These fold into a portable size and they can double as a bassinet and crib (just place the base on its highest setting to use as a bassinet and at its lowest to use as a crib). The base is like a mattress and is comfortable enough to sleep on.
