Are travel cots safe for babies to sleep in? Here’s everything you need to know

All the information you need about the safe sleeping requirements of travel cots and mattresses for babies and toddlers

Whether you’re going away on holiday or in need of a nap space at granny’s house, the flexibility a travel cot can provide is incredibly useful, but are portable beds as safe for babies to sleep in? We’ve looked into the safe sleeping requirements for little ones’ on-the-go and detail everything you need to ensure your little one has a safe night’s sleep when you’re away from home.

• Best travel cot : lightweight cots for babies and toddlers

Are travel cots safe to sleep in?

Like all cots and cotbeds sold in the UK, travel cots must meet the European Safety Standards, so whether your cot is built for home or away, the same safety rules apply. To be extra sure of a cot's safety, check that it meets British safety standard BS EN 716.

UK experts on safe sleeping, The Lullaby Trust, advise parents to use a firm, flat, waterproof mattress in a good condition. Baby’s space must be kept plain and simple, with no loose bedding and they should be placed in the ‘feet to foot’ position (where baby’s feet are placed at the foot of the cot) so they can’t wriggle down under any blankets. If your baby is under one year of age, duvets, pillows and cushions must not be added to their cot. 

If these rules are met, then essentially, you have a safe sleep set-up for your tot. However, there are a few extra precautions to be aware of when considering a travel cot.

What to look for in a safe travel cot

Unlike regular cots, travel cots do not come in a standardised size, so review the space you have available for your travel cot and ensure it is not too close to radiators, a/c units, blind cords or anything that could pose a strangulation threat.

Many travel cots feature wheels for easy maneuverability, but they must lock effectively or have a combination of legs and wheels to stop accidental rolling.

If space is an issue, you may be considering a pop-up, tent-style travel cot. These are really easy to assemble, create a cute little sleeping pod for your baby and are ideal for activities such as camping. However it’s worth noting that The Lullaby Trust recommends parents always use a cot with rigid sides as there is a danger of tripping and falling on top of flexible cots, so be extra cautious when moving around, especially at night.

What ages are travel cots recommended for?

The age ranges of travel cots really vary so always look at what the manufacturer suggests and if there is a weight limit. Most travel cots range from around three-months to three years, but some come with bassinets designed for newborns and others can support a child up to five years old.

Can I use a different mattress with my travel cot?

Travel cots often come with a much thinner, harder mattress and although it may be tempting to pad it with a folded duvet or pillows, thick, loose fabrics pose a risk of suffocation and strangulation. Either stick with the original mattress or look for a specific travel cot mattress that is a true fit for your cot (check dimensions as sizes vary) for a bit of extra comfort. 

Be aware that adding a mattress can also affect the stability of the bed, so ensure the mattress top is at least 50cm below the top rail of the cot to avoid toppling.

Can I use a travel cot every day?

Although travel cots are safe for babies and toddlers to sleep in for short stints, they are not designed for regular sleep over a long period of time. You need a more robust, permanent cot for normal everyday use in addition to an occasional-use travel cot.

Is it safe to use a second-hand travel cot?

To ensure all safety precautions are met The Lullaby Trust recommend buying new cots where possible, however a second-hand travel cot can be a good cost effective option, especially if you only plan on using it occasionally.

Before purchasing or borrowing a second-hand cot, always examine it first. Look for any holes in the mesh, missing corner guards, broken wheels and always put it up and down again to check that the frame locks properly into place. Keep an eye out for broken zips that can be a potential choking hazard and inspect the mattress thoroughly for tears and whether it is a correct fit for the frame. If possible ask for the original instructions, or find them online and make sure that you are confident it can be assembled correctly.

Mothercare, Travel Cot Cloud

RRP: £39.99 Weight: 11kg Dimensions: 104 x 74 x 80 cm Suitable: 0-2 yrs Visit Website

What the Media Says...

  Padded frames and easy to fold up!  Quite heavy to carry! Central locking feature makes it really easy to fold up and put down! Great for weekends away or holidays! Would definitely recommend it - its been really useful!  

thinkbaby.co.uk 3/5

  Really easy to assemble once you read the instructions. a very good size and very sturdy. Mattress is hard so have had to buy an extra one which makes this £70 rather than £40 so not as affordable as you would first think.

Mothercare Journey review

A super affordable travel system , with everything you need for life on the go with a baby, our panel of mum testers loved the Mothercare Journey. Highlights include the easy fold and one-hand recline feature, but compared to others on the market, this will only last until your tot is two.

Would you recommend this to other mums?

Vicki: I would recommend this pram to my friends and to other mums in general, as it is excellent value for money. It's easy to assemble, easy to use, feels sturdy and looks a lot more expensive than it is. I felt proud to push it, and I think that's important! Also, the fabric is luxurious looking yet was very easy to wipe down.

Rebecca: I would recommend the Mothercare Journey to other mums, as it is very easy to use and is amazing value for the money. I found it really easy to fold down and put up and thought it looked like a much more expensive pram than it was. It has a decent-sized basket so you can go and do some shopping without worrying about how you’ll get it home, and my baby seemed very comfortable on board.

Sarah M: The Mothercare Journey is a really well built and solidly made pushchair, and I would definitely recommend it to other parents. My little girl is two years old and average size for her age and she was really comfortable in the Journey and loved being able to lie completely flat in it. The price of the pushchair also makes it really good value for money.

Katy: I would recommend the Mothercare Journey to other mums as it is really easy to put up and fold down, which was one of my favourite features. It also has really good suspension so it handled well on rougher terrain - it bounced rather than jolted when going up and down curbs. As a left-handed mum, I also really like the fact that the break is in the middle, rather than on the right side like most of the prams on the market.

Sarah K: I would recommend this pram as an affordable travel system option for a new mum. The Mothercare Journey appears to be good value for money and it has a nice appearance, similar to that of other pricier options. The fact that the pram folds compactly and easily are further reasons why I would recommend this travel system.

How has this product made your life easier?

Vicki: The Mothercare Journey travel system is fantastic. First of all, I managed to assemble it without even needing to look at the instructions, which is a huge plus for me. The fact that the pushchair and carrycot are one unit is excellent, as it means that there's no bulky carrycot to store once the baby moves into the pushchair. My favourite part is the one hand recline feature – as a mum, my hands are always full, so this is a big help!

Rebecca: The Mothercare Journey is a really lovely pram and I have enjoyed using it. It folds down and goes back up easily and doesn't take up much room in your house which is exactly what I need. It has a decent-sized basket to put shopping in and fits in my boot easily. My little girl seemed very comfortable in it.

Sarah M: The Mothercare Journey is a really solid, good quality pushchair. The lining of the pushchair has a removable insert that has a footmuff that zips onto it, making it really easy to take on and off for washing. This also makes my life easier as the pushchair is easy to clean, which is ideal for a toddler who likes to snack in the pram.

Katy: This pram can be set up both parent and world facing and is suitable from birth which is a big plus point. It is also a great price – it looks very similar to some of the popular brands on the market, and matches the quality of them too. I would definitely buy this pushchair over some of the more expensive brands as it is very comfy and attractive looking. It also has a great size shopping bag underneath, which definitely makes life as a mum easier.

Sarah K: The pram folds and unfolds very easily, with a simple one-handed action – this is handy when trying to load the pram into the car with a young child. The fact that the frame folds is half is another positive point, as it leaves more room in the car boot for shopping. I could also fit the frame on the back seat of my car, which shows how compact it folds for a large pram.

Would you choose this product to win?

Vicki: I think the Mothercare Journey should win an award in this category, as it offers truly excellent value for money. The clever design means the carrycot turns into the pushchair, meaning no separate unit to store and plenty of flexible options in terms of configuration.  It's both parent and world facing and switches very easily between the two. The car seat is also of excellent quality and feels very comfortable.

Rebecca : Unfortunately, I wouldn't choose the Mothercare Journey to win this category as although it looks lovely and is easy to fold, the manoeuvrability lets it down. I struggled to push this pram and didn't really enjoy using it out and about. Personally, I like a pram to feel light and easy to push and sadly, this wasn't.

Sarah M: I highly recommend the Mothercare Journey as it is a really sturdy pushchair that handled well and had good suspension - my little girl loved being bounced in it whilst being pushed along! The pram has an extendable handle which is great for me as I sometimes find other pushchairs have fixed handle heights which are too low, leading to back pain from being bent over.

Katy: We are just reaching the stage where my daughter will no longer need a pram, but I loved this travel system so much that I'm actually considering buying the full travel system for my next baby. It was good quality but at a very good price compared to other brands. I would definitely put this one forward to win a Mother & Baby award for value for money, quality, design and usability.

Sarah K: I personally wouldn’t choose this travel system above other similar systems on the market, as firstly, I found the seat unit very small. My daughter who has just turned two years old reached the hood of the pram with her head and her feet were on the bottom of the seat unit. For me, this would mean a further pram would be needed, as parents often use a pram until aged three or older, depending on the child.

What changes would you make to this product?

Vicki: There are just a couple of things I'd change about the Mothercare Journey – I would like the hood to be a bit bigger for sunny day naps, and a little bit more on the length would be a benefit, as my daughter is an average height 21-month-old and has already run out of leg-room.

Rebecca: If I could change one thing about the Mothercare Journey it would be its manoeuvrability. It felt very heavy to steer and it wasn't great going up and down kerbs. I also found it tricky to steer with one hand, which is a shame, as it is a lovely pushchair otherwise.

Sarah M: The harness straps on the Mothercare Journey seemed too low down, even on the highest setting and were quite difficult to secure over my little girl's shoulders. Once she was fastened into the pushchair she managed to slip her arms out so she was no longer restrained in the harness. I found everything else about the pram to be great.

Katy: The only thing I would change is the rain cover, as it is a very tight fit and I feel it didn’t fully cover the pram. It would be nice if the pram was available in more colours, although it wouldn't put me off buying it in the future.

Sarah K: The main thing I would change would be the seat unit, as I feel it doesn't offer value for money if the pram can't be used much past two years old. I currently own a different travel system which still has lots of growing room for my daughter. The straps on the seat unit were also difficult to fasten.
