How to buy a crib and other new items for your baby can be one of the joys of prepping for a newborn and new motherhood, but it can also send you into a spiral of mass information.

So how do we cut through the noise and get to the helpful information we need?

Let’s prioritize with a bigger purchase that will support your child’s healthy sleep for years to come: a wonderful baby crib.

In collaboration with Walmart, I’ve created a crib-buying guide to answer all your questions about crib safety standards, styles and types, crib pricing and even shopping for a second-hand crib – and with this, you’ll be armed with all the info you need to buy that special crib you and your baby will love!

How to buy a crib and other questions to ask

• Do I need a bassinet or a crib?
• How much does a crib cost?
• What safety features should a baby crib have?
• What additional supplies do I need to buy beyond a crib?
• How do I get my baby to sleep in it?

… and more questions answered!

In addition to answering all your questions, we talk about the ABCs of safe sleep:
A = Alone (without toys, blankets or parents in the same bed)
B = Placed on their back
C = In a crib or bassinet
