It is recommended to use the Cot Bed in the higher position until your baby begins to roll over or pull up, usually at approx. 6 months.  Once you notice these signs, it is recommended to lower the height of the mattress. 

Head over to our YouTube Channel and watch our “How To” videos here.

This will depend on your child. If they are asking to move to a “big bed" or you feel they are ready to do so, the Toddler Bed provides a safe, familiar transition stage.
