Trusted by thousands of UK families.

How to Choose the Right Travel Cot

  • Weight and packed size – If you're flying, check the packed weight and dimensions against your airline's luggage allowance. Most travel cots weigh between 6–12kg. Lighter models are easier to carry but may sacrifice some stability.
  • Assembly time – Look for a travel cot that sets up in under 60 seconds, especially if you'll be assembling it after a long journey with a tired baby. Pop-up and fold-flat designs are the quickest.
  • Bassinet / newborn level – Many travel cots include a raised bassinet insert for newborns, so you don't have to bend to the floor for night feeds. Check the weight limit – typically up to 9kg.
  • Mattress quality – The mattress included with most travel cots is thin by design. For stays of a week or more, consider a travel cot mattress topper for added comfort – but only if approved by the manufacturer.
  • Playpen functionality – Many travel cots double as a playpen, adding useful value at home or in holiday accommodation.
  • Mesh sides – Full mesh sides provide airflow and visibility. Essential for monitoring your baby and for safe sleep in warmer climates.

Safe Sleep Away from Home

The Lullaby Trust recommends that babies always sleep on a firm, flat surface – even when travelling. Always use the mattress supplied with your travel cot and avoid adding extra padding, pillows, or duvets inside the cot. With over 12 years of experience supplying nursery products to UK families, we only stock travel cots that meet current UK safety standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most travel cots are suitable from birth up to approximately 3 years or 15kg, but always check the specific model's age and weight limits. Many travel cots include a raised bassinet insert for newborns (typically up to 9kg), which brings baby up to a more accessible height for night feeds. Once your baby can push up on their hands and knees or pull themselves to standing, move them to the lower base level. Stop using the travel cot entirely once your child can climb out.

Yes – travel cots that meet current UK and European safety standards are safe for regular nightly use, not just occasional travel. The key safe sleep rules apply exactly as they do at home: always use the mattress supplied with the cot (or a firm, flat replacement that fits snugly with no gaps), place your baby on their back to sleep, and keep the cot free from pillows, duvets, and loose bedding. The Lullaby Trust advises against adding extra padding or mattress toppers unless specifically approved by the manufacturer, as these can affect the firmness and fit of the sleep surface.

A travel cot is primarily designed as a safe sleep space – it has a firm, flat mattress base and meets cot safety standards. A playpen is designed for supervised awake play and typically has a softer or padded base, but is not certified as a safe sleep surface. Many modern travel cots combine both functions, with a firm mattress for sleep and a spacious mesh-sided enclosure that doubles as a playpen during the day. If you want to use a product for both sleep and play, look specifically for a travel cot with playpen functionality rather than a standalone playpen.
