Wooden, convertible or compact: which baby cot suits your nursery?
Shop all baby cots →
Choose a convertible cot if you want it to grow into a toddler bed later. The Santorini, Fjord, Emilia and Noor all convert by removing one side panel with no extra hardware, lasting from newborn through to around age 5. Choose a wooden baby cot in ash or vintage timber if natural warmth and character suit your nursery style. Choose the Stan Mini Cot if your room is compact or you need beside-bed placement.
All cots in this range meet AS/NZS 2172 and include slatted sides, teething rails and a height-adjustable base. Most take a standard 131 × 76 cm mattress. Check dimensions and mattress compatibility on each product page before ordering.
Safety, Material and Size
Baby Cots: What to Consider Before You Buy
Three things determine whether a cot works long-term: safety compliance, mattress fit and whether the design grows with your child. Get those right and it serves your family from the first night home through to the toddler years. A convertible cot, for instance, removes the cost of buying a separate toddler bed later. A compact mini cot fits rooms where a standard footprint does not. A wooden baby cot in ash or timber adds natural warmth and character to any nursery. Teething rails protect the cot's finish when your baby starts chewing the frame.
Safety Note
All cots in this range meet AS/NZS 2172, covering cot depth, bar spacing and structural safety. The mattress must fit snugly with no gaps larger than 25 mm on any side. Always check product page specifications and consult a paediatric health professional if you have specific safety questions.

Wooden Cots
Wooden Baby Cots in Ash and Vintage Timber
Timber and timber-finish cots add warmth and character to any nursery. In particular, the Noble in ash suits clean Scandinavian nursery styles, while the Bordeaux in vintage brown suits classic nursery setups with richer timber tones. Both include slatted sides, teething rails and a height-adjustable mattress base. See the full range of wooden baby cots to compare dimensions and finishes.
Convertible Cots
Convertible Cots That Become Toddler Beds
The Santorini, Fjord, Emilia and Noor all convert from cot to open toddler bed by removing one side panel. No extra hardware or tools required. As a result, the cot extends its life through to around age 5 and helps your child climb in and out independently as they grow. Confirm the conversion steps on each product page before purchasing.
White and Grey Cots
White and Grey Baby Cots for Modern Nurseries
A white cot suits Hamptons, Scandinavian and modern nursery styles. The Santorini, Noor and Fjord all work across most colour schemes. A grey cot suits contemporary nurseries where a softer, non-white finish works better. The Lyon in dark grey is the strongest pick for that palette. Both finishes wipe clean easily and take a standard-size mattress. All include a 2-position base that adjusts as your baby grows.
Mini and Compact Cots
Mini Baby Cots for Small Nurseries and Apartments
The Stan Mini Cot uses a smaller footprint than a standard cot. It suits beside-bed placement, compact apartments and rooms where a full-size cot takes up too much space. Note that the Stan Mini takes a smaller mattress than the standard size. Always confirm mattress dimensions on the product page to ensure a safe, gap-free fit. For sleep away from home, see our travel cots.
Buying Checklist
Baby Cot Buying Guide: Safety, Size and Style
- Safety compliance first: Confirm the cot meets AS/NZS 2172 before anything else. All models in this range do. Check that bar spacing, cot depth and structural ratings appear on the product page. If you have specific safety concerns, consult a paediatric health professional before purchasing.
- Mattress fit: Most cots in this range take a standard 131 × 76 cm mattress. The Stan Mini Cot uses a smaller size. Confirm mattress dimensions on the product page. A gap larger than 25 mm on any side creates an entrapment risk.
- Adjustable mattress base: All models include a 2-position base. Use the higher position for easy newborn access. Lower it once your baby can pull themselves up to standing to prevent climbing out.
- Convertible cot or fixed: Choose a convertible cot if you want it to become a toddler bed later. The Santorini, Fjord, Emilia and Noor all convert by removing one side panel. A fixed cot suits households that already have or plan to buy a separate toddler bed.
- Size and room fit: Standard cots suit most nurseries. The Stan Mini suits compact rooms, apartments and beside-bed placement. Before ordering, measure your nursery space and confirm the footprint fits. Also check the product page for weight if you plan to move the cot between rooms, as some models are heavier than others.
- Finish and colour: White and grey suit most nursery colour schemes and wipe clean easily. Ash and vintage timber finishes add warmth but may show marks more than painted options. In either case, review product images for an accurate colour representation before deciding.
- Delivery and assembly: Orders leave our Smithfield NSW warehouse on business days with full tracking. Most metro orders arrive within 3 to 7 business days. Assembly is required for all models. Complexity varies, so check the product page for assembly details before you order.
