Will a changing unit fit in a small nursery?
Short answer: A cot-top changer can save floor space in a small nursery. Leave space to walk round it and open drawers and doors.
- Check the changing top height suits whoever does most changes.
- Look for storage within reach so you never step away from your baby.
- Wall-fix tall or heavy units as the instructions say.
What the guidance says
- Place the cot away from radiators, direct sunlight and blind cords.
