Graco Pack and Play
If you’re anything like me, you probably overthink every baby purchase. When it came to deciding on a sleep setup for my first baby, I considered every option—crib, bassinet, pack and play, and even what we’d do when it was time for a toddler bed.
After way too much research, I chose this Graco Pack ‘n Play, and honestly, it was one of the best baby purchases we made. The removable bassinet was perfect during the newborn stage. I could easily move it around the house during the day and keep it right beside my bed at night. The changing table attachment was a lifesaver for those middle-of-the-night diaper changes.
As baby grew, we transitioned seamlessly from the newborn bassinet to the raised bassinet insert, and eventually to the lower level of the pack and play once she was rolling and sitting up. We added a pack-and-play mattress for a little extra comfort as she got older.
The best part? We completely skipped the traditional crib stage. When it was time, we transitioned her straight into a twin bed, which saved us the cost of buying a crib and later a toddler bed.
This setup worked so well for our family and got years of use. If you’re looking for a versatile sleep solution that can grow with your baby, this is a great option! Linked HERE

Twin Toddler Bed Frame
I transitioned my toddler directly from a pack-and-play to a twin bed, and this frame was exactly what I was looking for. The design will easily grow with her for years to come. It’s also incredibly affordable on Amazon.
There have been quite a few nights when either my husband or I have climbed into bed with her because of monsters/ needing extra comfort, and the frame has remained extremely sturdy. As I write this review, we’ve been using it for almost two years, and it still looks brand new. I couldn’t be happier with this purchase.
