Advantages of a co-sleeper

For several years it has been very popular to use a co-sleeper for your baby's first months. Overall, experts say it promotes bonding and helps baby sleep faster. Isn't that what every parent wants?

In addition, it is also very nice for the parent: he / she does not have to get out of bed at night to change a diaper or to (breast)feed. This also promotes the mother's recovery, especially after a caesarean section.

You may be thinking, "geez, another product I need for my baby." That's why you can now rent the best co-sleepers at Tiny Library. It's a shame to buy a new cot when you can also rent it for a few months. Buying a second-hand co-sleeper is of course also possible, after those few months you will have the 'hassle' of storing or selling it. To completely unburden you as a parent, you can therefore easily lease bedside beds.

Here are the advantages at a glance:

1. Research shows that babies fall asleep faster in a co-sleeper
2. Co-sleeping promotes the baby's secure attachment
3. Co-sleeping promotes the regulation of a young baby's breathing and heart rate
4. The baby feels safer and secure close to the parents
5. The breastfeeding mother does not have to get out of bed to feed the baby
6. When your child wakes up, you can quickly reassure him if he sleeps next to you, for example by placing a hand on his/her stomach
7. Babies who sleep next to their mother nurse more often and, on average, disturb the mother's sleep less.
8. Babies who sleep alone in their own room are more than twice as likely to die of SIDS than children who sleep in the same room as their parents/carers.
