Do you have enough space in the house?
Generally, the changing table would be better if placed in a room specifically dedicated to operations. If this is impossible, you must “park” it in the bathroom.
The ideal compromise is to find a mobile changing table, a structure with drawers that are high enough and large enough to provide the changing table function. In this way, you can store everything you need for your baby (diapers, towels, etc.) inside. You will also have the advantage of recycling it and using it for traditional use in the future when the children are grown up.
The most advanced models contemplate bathing, thus avoiding moving the baby to prevent it from getting cold.
If your space does not allow it, you must opt for extremely compact changing tables instead. Not equipped with a chest of drawers, they can be easily positioned on the bathtub or bidet according to your preferences.
Choice of mattress and protection
Please pay attention to the quality of the mattress. It must be well coated and made of non-allergenic and non-slip material!
When it comes to protection bars, wood is the ideal choice. Reliable and delicate.
Style
There are really many models of changing tables on the market, in every style and color, and obviously for both boys and girls.
The advice is to invest your money well. So what? Sober models and possibly with a wooden chest of drawers. In this way, as we mentioned at the beginning of the article, you will be able to use a full-fledged piece of furniture in the future. A true childhood heirloom from the very first years of your children’s life!
