How to set up the Cot

A Step by Step guide to

Setting up your crib or cot

Your baby will sleep a lot in those first few months, so you want to make sure your little one feels calm while trying to fall asleep. Create a little nest that’s soft and comfortable and will make your newborn feel snug and safe. Let’s start with one of the most important things, the bed for your baby.

The Lola Crib

The Lola Crib is a stylish and modern addition to your nursery. This exquisite crib is designed with a filigree metal frame, creating a visually light and almost floating appearance, making it the perfect baby bed for a contemporary living style.

The crib is crafted with precision and features small feet made of sturdy mango wood, ensuring even and gentle floor support for your little one. Safety and stability are a top priority, and this crib delivers on both fronts. The firm laced leather straps provide additional reinforcement, while a thin wooden floor connects the main body to the delicate yet extremely stable underframe with concealed screws, giving you peace of mind while your little one rests.

The steps

  • Step 1: The bed protector

  • Step 2: Fitted sheet

  • Step 3: Flat Sheet

  • Step 5: Decoration

To make up your newborns bed start with a bed protector. The mattress protector goes on top of the mattress, underneath the regular fitted sheet. Cocoon’s breathable and waterproof mattress protector is a comfortable and discreet solution to protect the mattress from any nightly accidents. The mattress protector is very comfortable to sleep on due to the its unique combination of untreated cotton flannel and breathable membrane. This gives your child the best conditions for a good night’s sleep.

Underneath your woolen blanket, you can use a flat sheet to tuck in your baby. A tip from us: instead of a flat sheet, you can use a large swaddle that matches your bedlinen as well. You need many of them anyways and they’re so multifunctional! Plus, it will protect your woolen blanket.

An absolute must-have if you ask is, is a woolen blanket. Preferably in 100% wool and yes, you can use it in summer as well. The advantage of wool is that it regulates the temperature of your little one. Merino wool doesn’t itch, is antibacterial and you don’t have to wash it frequently.

This step is optional, but will definitely contribute to the most comfy and inviting bed for your little one.
