Changing Table Dressers in Changing Tables(50)

What should I look for in a changing table?

When searching for a changing table, parents need to make sure all safety gear is included to ensure furniture is secured to the wall and it has sturdy table legs. This will prevent children from moving the table. Drawers and cubbies will make changing baby more convenient, and a safety railing to keep baby from rolling off is essential. Make sure the changing table was painted with non-toxic paint or stain. Toxic paint chemicals still linger on furniture.

At what age should children stop using changing tables?

Children should stop using a changing table when they reach the maximum weight and height for the table. The weight limit is generally around 30 pounds, which is when kids are about 2 years old.

Can a changing table pad go on top of a dresser?

Changing table pads can go on top of dressers to make a sturdy table for available storage. Additional storage can be used for clothes, diapers, wipes, and diaper cream within arm's reach. Be sure to attend baby at all times when a safety rail is not used on a dresser.
