Wondering why so many moms today are using nursery daybeds? I’ll tell you why!
First, they are the perfect spot to lay down in between those frequent night feedings or sleepless nights when baby just won’t go down.
Second, they are a great place for your husband to join you during your nightly bedtime routine. Otherwise while you’re on the glider, he’s on the floor.
Third, your nursery can double as an extra guest room or guest sleeping space when needed.
Finally, a nursery daybed is the perfect transition for when your toddler is ready to leave the crib, making it functional for years to come.
Let’s start by looking at some of the cutest nursery daybeds on the internet, followed by my favorite daybeds available now – all top-rated, with options for every budget!
