Should I buy a bassinet or cot first?

Start with a compliant cot because it lasts longer. Add a bassinet only if a smaller newborn sleep space will genuinely help with room sharing, night feeds, or moving the baby safely around the home.

What safety standard should a cot meet in Australia?

Look for a household cot that complies with the current Australian mandatory standard. AS/NZS 2172:2013 is the cot standard many parents will see, alongside other accepted full-size cot or crib standards listed by Product Safety Australia.

Can I add a bassinet or cot to my baby registry?

Yes. Add the exact bassinet or cot, the matching mattress, and simple fitted accessories on NestBub, or use direct coordination for the cot so guests can contribute without guessing on a safety-critical item.
