The best cribs for bedside use allow for this. 1. Arm's Reach Clear-Vue Co-Sleeper Arm's Reach was founded by a father and mother team in the days before co-sleeping was the norm. They designed a design that allowed parents to sleep in a safe environment with their infants.

The bassinet can be used for newborns until five months old, or until they begin getting up on their knees. The Co-Sleeper can be used as a stand-alone bassinet, or it can be attached to the parent's bed using the strap that comes with it and plate. It's easy to switch between the two modes using just a pull of a string, but you should be aware that it does not meet the federal standards for a bed that is attached which means your child should never be left alone in this arrangement of sleeping. McKenna was also impressed with the Co-Sleeper's accessibility. She noted that it is easy to lift your baby into and out of the bassinet from the comfortable bed to feed them during the night or other care requirements.
