Wooden or rattan baby changing table for children's room

How to choose the perfect changing table for you and your baby?

The changing table is used to change the baby and guarantees optimal comfort during the change. A strong bond is created between the parent and the child during the changing process. There are many products available, but how do you choose the right changing table for you and your child?

In order to choose the perfect and practical changing table for your baby, various criteria should be taken into account such as its practicality, its storage capacity with or without drawers, as well as the dimensions required for you and for the purchase of the mattress, which should coincide with the surface area available for it.

To begin with, the size of your child's room should be taken into account. If your child's room requires enough space to devote a good part of it to storage and to your baby's furniture, opt for a piece of furniture with a lot of drawers or shelves, which will allow you to combine practicality and efficiency. As a child needs a lot of products when he is very small, we never have "too much" storage in our homes.

However, if the baby's room is small enough, we recommend a slimmer or folding changing table so as not to overload the room. You can complete the storage capacity with a shelf or a chest of drawers for example to maximise the space in your room.

Similarly, choose your changing table according to your height. It should not be too low, so that your back does not hurt when you change your baby, or too high, so that you are not uncomfortable on your toes. Your changing table must be the right size so that you are not subjected to your baby's changing. It is therefore very important to check the measurements of your changing table beforehand to ensure proper use and optimum comfort for both the child and the parents. To do this, we recommend choosing a changing table that reaches the level of the pelvis or navel for a good use.

In addition, the depth of your changing table should be taken into account. When we choose a piece of furniture for our baby, we want it to be with us for many years. A baby grows so fast, that the deeper your changing table is, the more space you will have, the longer you will be able to keep it to accompany your child and keep this piece of furniture among your favorites.

Finally, the storage capacity of your changing table is an essential element in the choice of your changing table. A changing table with shelves or drawers is more practical for your kids so that you can put all the products your child needs on it. You can then change your baby and provide yourself with the necessary products without taking your eyes off him.

Which model of changing table to choose and for which use? 

There are different models of changing tables to meet the needs of everyone. Choose the one that suits you according to the different sizes of changing table, whether it is a footed table, a wall-mounted table, a folding changing table, a chest of drawers changing table, a bathtub changing table, etc.

There is the changing table. The changing chest of drawers is a 2 in 1 piece of furniture that combines the necessary storage for the baby through its chest of drawers side but also consists of an adequate surface on the top of it, to integrate a changing table space and to welcome the perfect mattress that your child will need. The mattress is an essential part of a changing table and it is necessary to choose it well. The changing table chest of drawers is a practical way of maximising space in the room by combining two pieces of furniture into one. As the changing table is integrated directly into the top of the chest of drawers, you can keep this furniture for many years for the function of your choice.

The wall-mounted changing table is also present on the storage market. This type of furniture allows you to have a changing table without taking up space in the baby's room. Moreover, with this type of changing table, you will be able to choose the height that suits you best and thus avoid any type of discomfort. Rêves et Merveilles has selected the Charlie Crane wall mounted changing table to guarantee practicality and optimization of the baby's room. A folding changing table that keeps a sober and elegant design when closed. A changing unit that does not neglect its storage part thanks to its shelves on the surface glued to the wall.

Changing tables are also appreciated for their slimness and sober design. These types of changing tables are perfect for changing babies without taking up too much space in the room.

Some models are foldable, others are not. The foldable changing table feature allows you to place it anywhere in your home and change your baby at any time. Moreover, they are easily transportable and will allow you to guarantee optimal comfort at each change of your baby wherever you are.

The bathtub changing table is also winning over many parents. A 2-in-1 bathtub feature that allows you to keep your baby in one place while bathing.

What design of changing table to fit in a child's room?

The baby changing table is an essential piece of furniture to have in your baby's room. However, it should not stand out in the decor and not be in harmony with your baby's bed for example.

Combine your changing table with the rest of the furniture in the room for a nice decoration.

The changing table in white, natural or coloured wood is a safe bet. To be installed in any type of decoration, with a visual such as wood, you are sure to be in the image of a baby's room. Wood gives both a warm and cocooning atmosphere to the room, ideal for a baby's room.

The natural rattan changing tables are a source of optimal visual quality. Ideal in a bohemian room for example, the products of the Théo brand illustrate this type of product perfectly. Combining wood with rattan weaving, you will have a piece of furniture with a natural appearance but above all durable and renewable.

Use durable products to accompany your children, they will guarantee a long life of the products and a good ease of maintenance.
