With a wide variety of changing tables available in differing materials, styles and accessories, choosing a changing table for you and your child can be a challenging task. Here is an overview of some important considerations when choosing the right changing table for your child.
Safety first
Consider carefully how the changing table is built. It should feel solid and safe. Your child will in total spend a lot of time on the table and you should feel that the table is not only sturdy but hard wearing. If you choose not to have a separate changing table, make sure the low dresser or other surface you place the changing station on is stable.
Height and maneuverability
The daily chore of changing nappies is cumbersome and tiring when you have to strain your back whilst reaching for baby essentials. Make sure that the changing station has the perfect measurements for both you and your child and that all baby essentials well within reach.
Space and capacity
Nappies, cloths and wipes, lotions, clean clothes etc. should all be within easy reach while changing your baby.
Wheels
Having wheels on the changing table is ideal for easy storage when not in use, or for use as a movable desk etc. when your baby has grown and the table is not used for changing nappies anymore. All wheels should be lockable, to prevent the table from sliding, or moving whilst changing your baby, and to provide a more stable available changing environment for you and your child.
How to use the Changing Table
Changing nappies for the first time can often be a challenge for any new parent. Follow this guide for easy and safe way to change your child´s nappies.
Find a safe and sturdy place, preferably a permanent nappy-changing area. If this is not available, find a bed or a floorspace.
Never turn your back on your child while on a changing table or even on the floor.
Open out the Nappy. Place other essentials like changing clothes, oils etc. within reach.
Lay your child on the changing table or area, still wearing the used diaper.
Unfasten the used Nappy and gather your childs feet and lift. Remove the dirty nappy.
Clean your child.
Place the nappy under your child and lower your child onto it.
Fasten the nappy.
