How To Select The Best Changing Table For You and Your Baby
You will certainly change a lot of diapers before your child's first birthday - sooo you will want to make that as comfortable and convenient as possible for both the changer and the changee.
If you have the money (or, maybe a grandparent with money) then it pays to get a well designed changing table. Many parents use their changing table well into the baby's second year. And, if you choose a combination style dresser and changing table then you can continue to use it for years in your child's room.
Here are some things to consider when you are selecting a changing table for your baby.
- Safety Straps - does the changing table provide one. If not, you can add your own if you need to.
- Read the reviews and product detail to make sure you are buying a sturdy changing table. Remember you want to use it for years. This in itself makes it worth spending a little more money to purchase a name brand.
- The higher the protective guardrail around the changing table the better. Two inches high or higher on all sides is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
- Storage right on the changing table so you don't have to take your eyes off baby to access items that you need is vital. You can choose a table with shelves, drawers, baskets, with doors or a combination of shelves and drawers.
- Long term use: Think about how you might want to use the changer after it is no longer needed for diaper changing. One with shelves or baskets can be used to store toys and blankets in your child's room or a combination dresser and changing table can be used for years, as long as it is sturdly made. Just take away the changing pad and use it as a regular dresser.
- Select a changing table with a finish (cherry, white, oak, natural, espresso, black) that will match or blend well with the rest of the furniture in the nursery. There are a number of crib and changing table combos that you might want to consider if you don't alreay have a crib.
