While nurseries can be elaborately decorated, parents typically only need a few core items for a functional space:

: The primary sleeping space. Experts recommend models that meet current CPSC safety standards.

: Bookshelves and bins help manage the influx of toys and clothes.

: Essential for feeding and soothing; look for models with good lumbar support.

: Must be firm, flat, and fit snugly within the frame (less than two fingers' width gap).
