Now is the time to prepare everything so that when the baby arrives you will find everything perfect and many doubts often arise. With the amount of products (and expenses) that there are of baby, What are the essential furniture for the baby's room? We help you with this list of basic children's rooms.
Today the offer of baby products can overwhelm parents, There are different models of absolutely everything! How to clarify? It is true that sometimes it seems complicated, but also that it is not impossible. You just have to have one thing in mind: although there are many accessories and objects that can make the baby's life more comfortable, there will always be some basic and essential with which you can perfectly raise your child.
Speaking of the baby and, above all, of your room, there are different decorative trends and each family will have theirs, which of course will depend on the budget of each one, as there are objects cheaper than others. We make a small list of furniture that you should look for your baby's room.
The basic furniture for the baby room
These are the five essential furniture that can not be missing in your baby's room. The cradle, the changing table, the dresser and the chair are in this order the most necessary. The purchase of the bassinet can be dispensed with, although it is always very useful to prevent your little newborn from getting lost in the cradle.
The crib in the baby room
Of course, our baby will have to sleep somewhere. Most children sleep in their cots until two and three years old, so It is important to choose one that is resistant and meets safety standards, that is, that is approved.
Between the keys to choosing the baby's crib there is the space between the bars (it must not exceed six centimeters), the height (better that it is adjustable), the resistance and, of course, the size and the mattress. Also, it is good to be informed about the different types of cribs, especially the convertibles, very fashionable lately.
The bassinet or mini-cot for your newborn baby
For the first months of life, the truth is that the crib is too big, andIt's better to opt for a bassinet or mini-crib, where the baby will be more comfortable because the space is smaller and more welcoming. In addition, these furniture They are easier to move between rooms (for example, to take it to the living room or to the parents' bedroom), which will allow you to keep a close eye on the baby while he is asleep.
Diaper changer in the baby room
Another important object for the baby's room is the diaper changer. This is also one of those products that have many types, and that you can select according to your needs. At this point, really dAs for which you decant, but you can not forget to take into account these keys: safety, stability, shape, wheels (that have brake), height, accessories and size.
Of all the types, the most useful is the multifunction, because later it is transformed into another piece of furniture and thus we can give it much more utility.
The armchair for mom and dad
The armchair is another of the necessary elements in your baby's room. You need a space to be comfortable near your child and an armchair next to the crib will be of great help. In the armchair you can breastfeed your baby, it will be a support when you have him in his arms in his room and even when you want to be seated at his side.
In addition, it is an element that although time passes and the baby grows, it will always be good to have it at home. Find a comfortable chair, where you can breastfeed easily and cozy for your home.
Compartment for storage of clothes and accessories of the baby
The last thing we need in the baby's room is a closet or dresser to store your clothes. There are special cabinets for babies, with shelves and hangers designed for their size, although this kind of furniture is really useful for a very short time: If you want to save, the best thing to do is to buy an adult size wardrobe from the first moment that will be much longer.
In addition to the wardrobe, it will be good to have a shelf or drawer to store small things, although this will depend on the space we have in the room.
As you can see, there are not many essential pieces of furniture. Newborn babies just eat and sleep, and do not need a lot of supplements that will last a short time.If you want to save, here you will get it: you can get a functional room but basic and perfect for what your baby needs: rest and grow up healthy, something in which the decoration of the room does not count.
