One of the biggest product investments you will make for your new baby is their crib. Cribs are among the most expensive items you’ll purchase and it’s also one of the most important. Your baby, especially during the newborn stage, will spend a great deal of time in their crib. You want only the best to promote safety and restful sleep.
A natural wood crib is a must-have for parents who value quality materials that are safe and sustainable, especially when it comes to your precious baby. It’s the superior crib product for a reason. Here’s why you need a natural wood crib on your baby registry.
1. Crafted With Sustainability in Mind
Natural wood cribs are crafted with sustainable materials. Nestig, in particular, uses sustainably-harvested solid Brazilian pine and eco-engineered wood. The wood used on the cribs comes from reforested areas in Brazil that are maintained by our suppliers and are FSC certified to ensure the wood came from a responsible source with minimal impact on the environment.
In addition to being crafted with sustainable materials, Nestig further extends its sustainability mission through the production process. To reduce waste, the brand follows a no inventory model. Instead of mass-producing materials, which is a practice for traditional retailers, the company builds cribs only after orders are placed. This ensures that products are not over-produced which cuts back on the potential for unused items.
2. Free From Harmful Toxins
A benefit of using sustainable wood in the production of a natural wood crib is the absence of toxins. Too many baby products are filled with toxins that can be harmful to your child. Natural wood cribs give you peace of mind that your baby is safe. Nestig cribs go above and beyond the mandatory safety requirements for non-toxic materials.
In addition to being non-toxic, Nestig wood cribs are lead and phthalate safe. This is true of not just the wood for the crib, but for the supportive materials used to build it. The paint, finish, and glue used are all non-toxic and free of VOC (volatile organic compounds). Only TSCA Title VI compliant materials are used. This attention to detail keeps your little one safe.
3. Superior Safety Standards
Safety is a top concern for most parents, especially those who are ready to welcome newborns. You want to ensure that your child is safe with the products they will use every day. Nestig goes above and beyond to ensure its natural wood cribs maintain exceptional safety standards.
In addition to meeting the minimum safety requirements as outlined by the government, Nestig takes further steps to validate the safety of its cribs with Juvenile Product Manufacturers Association (JPMA) Certification. JPMA certifies that products are non-toxic and have a high mechanical quality. JPMA Certification is not mandatory, but companies that are committed to providing the safest materials for children opt for this certification to deliver extended peace of mind to parents.
4. Easily Convertable
With all the products you need to buy for your baby starting the moment you find out you’re expecting, it’s always a great idea to find products your little one can grow into. A natural wood crib is one of those products. Nestig’s natural wood crib converts three ways: a mini crib, a full crib, and a toddler bed.
When you buy a Nestig crib for your little one, you’re able to use it right from birth. The mini crib is small enough for your little one to sleep comfortably and is moveable so you can keep it right beside your bed if you need to or move it into their own room. The full crib is excellent once your baby has outgrown the petite size crib. You will get tons of use out of this size.
Your little one will reach a stage when they get a bit adventurous and attempt to escape the crib. Then, it’s time to convert to a toddler bed. Your little one can use the toddler bed until they’re 50 pounds. You can easily get 4 to 5 years of use out of the crib and it’s super easy to convert from one need to the other.
5. Unmatched Durability
A convertible crib is excellent, but will it last? Yes! Nestig cribs are designed to last for years. It’s entirely possible to use your crib for one child through to their toddler years or use it for multiple children as your family grows. You can trust a natural wood crib to stand the test of time.
As you perform research on the durability of cribs, you may find that metal cribs are considered sturdier. Due to the material, that is true. But the benefits of a wood crib far outweigh the stability of a metal crib, which doesn’t come near to having as many benefits, including convertibility and natural materials.
Natural wood cribs really are the superior crib product. You can trust that when you lay your baby down to sleep in a natural wood crib, they will be safe, protected, and enjoy a quality night (or day) of sleep.
