Operating Instructions
Mattress Height Adjustment
The Suite Bebe Bailey crib features three levels of mattress adjustment to accommodate your child's growth and ensure safety. Adjust the mattress support to the appropriate height based on your child's developmental stage.
- Highest Position: For newborns and infants who cannot push up on their hands and knees.
- Middle Position: For infants who can push up on their hands and knees but cannot yet pull themselves to a standing position.
- Lowest Position: For toddlers who can pull themselves to a standing position. This position helps prevent falls.
To adjust the mattress height, carefully remove the mattress and mattress support. Reattach the mattress support to the desired height setting using the designated hardware. Ensure all connections are secure before placing the mattress back into the crib.
4-in-1 Conversion Options
The Bailey crib is designed to convert into a toddler bed, day bed, and full-size bed, extending its usability as your child grows. Conversion kits and guard rails are sold separately.
1. Toddler Bed Conversion
To convert the crib into a toddler bed, remove the front rail and replace it with a toddler guard rail (sold separately). This allows your child to enter and exit the bed independently while providing a safety barrier.

2. Day Bed Conversion
To convert the crib into a day bed, remove the front rail entirely. The day bed configuration provides an open side for easy access, suitable for older toddlers.

3. Full-Size Bed Conversion
The crib can be converted into a full-size bed using a full-size bed conversion kit (sold separately). This typically involves using the crib's headboard and footboard with standard full-size bed rails.
