Two separate baby beds

To welcome twins home and prepare their room, you'll need many items in duplicate. This is also the case for beds. Thus, you can certainly buy two separate baby beds to use as twin baby beds. It is often recommended to place the two beds close to each other, which tends to reassure the children. Initially, you'll use two bassinets for the twins' sleeping during their first months of life. Then, from 6 months of age, you can use two cribs with bars.

Opting for two bassinets, then two cribs, and finally two children's beds can represent a significant budget for the family. You might then choose the solution of an evolutive baby bed. The evolutive baby bed is one that evolves with the child's growth. It can first be a bassinet that you can then transform into a crib and later into a child's bed. Economical, the evolutive baby bed allows you to opt for just one piece of furniture that you'll use for several years. If you want to limit expenses, you can opt for two evolutive baby beds.

A twin baby bed

If you're looking for an even more practical and economical solution, you might consider choosing a twin baby bed. The twin baby bed is specifically designed to accommodate two babies without taking up too much space. Depending on the model, it consists of two sleeping areas and other elements. Indeed, this twin bed can also be what we call a combination baby bed. You might find two changing tables integrated into the twin baby bed or storage spaces. The idea here is to offer a twin baby bed that is practical and functional.

This twin baby bed is also evolutive. By transforming it, you can go from two bassinets to two cribs with bars, then to two children's beds. The furniture thus adapts to the child over time

Some tips for choosing baby furniture well

Whether it's a twin baby bed or any other type of baby furniture, there are several selection criteria to consider. First, it's recommended to choose new or at least recent furniture to ensure it complies with current manufacturing standards. Choosing made in France is also a great way to opt for high-quality furniture that's durable and more eco-responsible.

It's also recommended to pay attention to the materials used in manufacturing your twin baby bed or other baby furniture. It's advisable to choose furniture made from FSC or PEFC certified wood (from eco-managed forests) or ecological panels with low formaldehyde content to choose a more eco-responsible element that respects young children's well-being. It's also recommended to opt for furniture with water-based paint or varnish. This helps limit the presence of volatile organic compounds.

Don't forget the mattresses

Whatever twin baby bed model you choose, you'll also need to select an appropriate baby mattress. Indeed, babies need to spend the night comfortably installed on a mattress suitable for infant sleep. Therefore, choose a mattress of the right size according to the chosen twin baby bed. It's also recommended to choose a mattress made from natural materials such as bamboo or organic cotton to preserve the child's well-being and safety.

Our WILLOW twin baby bed model

At Nateo Concept, we have developed a twin baby bed designed to evolve as your child grows and make parents' daily life easier. Our WILLOW model initially consists of a compact baby furniture with the following for each baby:

  • A bassinet
  • A changing table
  • Five storage compartments

From the moment the children are too big for the bassinets, it's possible to evolve this twin baby bed to benefit from:

  • Two cribs with bars
  • Two changing tables
  • Four storage cubes

Finally, when the children are old enough to remove the bars, this piece of furniture can be transformed once again and can be used until the children are about 6 years old. This last modification provides access to:

  • Two 70x140cm beds
  • Two small storage units
  • Two cubes that can serve as nightstands

Smart and evolutive, our WILLOW furniture is also made in France, with PEFC certified wood and painted with water-based paint. It's perfect for parents who want to choose a sustainable solution for their children as it can be used from birth until about 6 years of age.

If you want to complete the twins' room setup, you can also opt for a baby wardrobe and a dresser to gain more storage space. All that's left is to add decorative elements to create the desired atmosphere!
