Baby Cots and Bassinets in Nigeria
Baby cots, bassinets and portable baby beds, sold in Nigeria as cots and in imported catalogues as cribs. The range includes a rocking cot with a mosquito net cover and a bed that folds down into a diaper bag.
How to choose a baby cot or bassinet
Most shops in Nigeria say cot. A baby crib is the same thing under the American name, so do not worry about the label on the box.
Measure the space beside your bed first, because a bassinet is usually kept within arm's reach for the first months.
Check these:
- A firm flat mattress that fits the base with no gap at the sides
- Mesh or net sides, so you can see your baby and air moves through
- A mosquito net cover, which matters across most of Nigeria
- Wheels with brakes, or a rocking position you can stop
Keep pillows, duvets, bumpers and soft toys out of the cot while your baby sleeps.
