Shopping for the right crib involves many factors. Obviously you need to look at your budget and you want to make sure that you get the best value for your dollar. You also want to pay attention to what type of crib you will need. If this is your first child you may want to look at a convertible crib. A convertible crib starts out as a crib and as your child gets older it can become a toddle bed, a day bed and finally a youth bed. You may pay a bit more for a convertible crib but your child will be able to use it for many years.
