The Safeababy Sleeper Cot Divider allows you to divide a cot or cot bed into two areas.

The main reason for this is to create a safe space for baby to sleep in . The problem is that new born babies are so small that they can be somewhat lost in that large space. This can create specific health and safety problems.

It is recommended by health officials that babies who weigh 10 pounds or less should use traditional blankets and sheets rather than sleeping bags style nightwear. The problem with this is that babies can shuffle and wriggle about during the night, they could wriggle down under the blankets to the bottom of the cot and get too hot or even suffocate.

One solution is to just make the cot up using the bottom half of the cot then babies feet are already at the bottom and they can’t shuffle down any further. This however creates a slightly different problem in that baby can now wriggle up the mattress and out from the covers and potentially get cold.

The Safababy Sleeper Cot Divider solves these problems by creating a false footboard part way down the cot, meaning that baby can’t wriggle down any further than the cot divider and can’t go any higher either.

The cot divider is secured by a strap that goes underneath the mattress. This holds the bedding firmly in place. The sides are held in place by handles that turn to hold it upright against the upright bars of the cot. The cot divider can be moved down the cot and repositioned as baby grows.

The Safababy Sleeper cot divider is also great for use with twins. The cot divider can be used to create a separate sleeping area for each twin yet allowing them to share the same cot.
