Wooden cots for a natural aesthetic
Australians love to bring the outdoors in with natural timber furniture that has a timeless appeal. Our Mocka design team agree there’s no better way to fit out a nursery than with calm, coastal, natural furnishings that have an organic feel. That’s why we’ve assembled a beautiful range of timber cots. Crafted from materials like birchwood, poplar and pine, these exquisite cot designs offer a natural aesthetic. Browse the online showroom to discover this stunning collection that the whole family will love.
Baby cot vs bassinet: what’s the difference?
Bassinets are essentially mini cots. They are smaller than a regular cot to make reaching and picking up your newborn more accessible. Bassinets tuck easily beside your bed to make nighttime feeds easier and can be used until six months (or until your little one outgrows it). Cot beds are much larger and, with a cot conversion, can grow with your child until approximately four years old.
You can skip the bassinet with a Mocka cot if you choose to. Our designers have developed an adjustable base feature to help access a newborn. Keep the base raised to easily reach bub in the initial months, and gradually lower it as they grow and learn to sit up.
How to choose the right cot for your nursery
First and foremost, the cot you select must be built for safety. Always check to ensure your cot complies with Australian safety standard AS/NZS 2172. All Mocka cots are independently tested to ensure they pass all mandatory requirements for cot depth, spacing between bed rails and gaps around the cot mattress. Look for high-quality, sturdy and durable materials like wood and metal. Then, of course, the fun part is choosing your style. Consider your nursery furniture, like your change tables, bookcases and shelving and browse Mocka’s beautiful collection to source your complementing design.
Different styles of cots
Choose from a range of bestsellers to find your perfect cot designs. Australian parents love our boho, retro and Scandi-chic designs. Select from a beautiful birchwood, a luxurious chestnut stain or a natural pine and bright white combination; for a pop of colour, choose soft pastel finishes like dusty pink or slate grey. Alternatively, many parents love the luxe vintage feel of our metal cots. Make your cot a statement piece with powder-coated black, white and bronze finishes.
Features to look for in a cot
It's worth considering your nursery space before settling on a particular cot style. Would a compact cot work best? Or do you have considerable space to fill? Of course, reaching bub easily is essential, so we recommend a cot with an adjustable base feature. Under Cot storage is also a fantastic storage option. Designed to fit under your Mocka cot, this sliding shelf tucks perfectly underneath the bed, offering quick access to spare bedding, clothing and more. Last but not least, don’t forget to purchase your Mocka cot mattress and mattress protector.
Benefits of a wooden cot
Wood is an obvious choice for cots for several reasons. Timber is renowned for being durable, long-lasting and a poor conductor of heat, so bub is in safe hands. What’s more, beautiful timber grains and elegant wood stains offer a timeless style that suits any home.
Wooden cot conversions
Wooden cot conversions are the best way to make the most of your precious baby bed. Quickly transform your cot into a toddler bed by replacing one side panel with a conversion piece. The low-profile side piece allows your little one to come and go as needed without needing to call Mum or Dad for a lift-up. Junior beds allow children to transition gradually to sleeping in a real bed. Avoid a co-sleeper by offering your child this perfect in-between step.
Transferring your child from a wooden cot to a wooden bed
When the time finally comes to transition to a kid’s bed, you can find a host of chic styles here in our showroom. Choose from beautiful wooden single beds, fun metal bunk beds, beds with bright-coloured headboards, quirky house-shaped beds, and so much more.
Find all the baby furniture you need in one accessible online location. Fit out the nursery with all your cots, change tables, bouncers, highchairs, rockers and more.
