When to Stop Using a Crib

By the time your child is about 3 feet tall, he should no longer be sleeping in a baby crib, according to experts. When you buy your baby crib, check the manufacturer’s guidelines as there may be a maximum height, weight, or age limit associated with your child’s crib.

To ensure the baby crib is safe during both babyhood and toddlerhood, you will need to lower the mattress height from time to time so that your child can’t climb out or launch himself over the rails.


Before your child gets to the point where he can climb out of his baby crib, even with the mattress at the lowest setting, it’s a good idea to transition him to a toddler bed, or to a firm mattress placed on the floor.


There are toddler bed rails you can add to the bed, but some parents prefer to place a Travel Cot mattress next to the bed to prevent their toddler or preschooler from rolling out accidentally (or accidentally on purpose!).


Some parents also choose to transition their toddler to a bed once they have a new addition on the way because the crib is needed for the newborn. 


In this case, making the switch at least six to eight weeks before the new baby is due is a good plan; that way, your toddler has to adjust to only one big change at a time.


In Summary


we know that most children are about 2 to 3 years old, and their height can grow to the height standard recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics to stop using cribs, which is about 90 cm. The time around the age of 2 is also the time when the child unlocks the motor skill of "climbing up and down furniture without assistance".


Therefore, the age group of 2~3 years old is just the time when the child's physical condition and motor skills are enough to support the he  to make the dangerous move of jumping over the bed rails !Also, check the crib manufacturer’s guidelines, which may include a maximum height, weight, or age recommendation.
