So the very idea that the DockATot is a "safe" way to cosleep is a bit ridiculous. But according to the AAP, cosleeping is NOT recommended or safe.

The AAP also states that the use of crib bumpers are unsafe, among other things.

According to the AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) the DockATot and other baby "nests" or "pods" like it are not safe. They also have other great accessories like bags for transporting your DockATot as well as some adorable Toy Arch Sets to allow baby to play while in it.So let's jump in with question number 1: Is the DockATot safe for sleeping?

She has tons of room to move around and play and lay down. Even though she cannot crawl just yet, she can easily make herself roll over the sides. It’s too snug for her to play in if I add toys now that she can sit up. She still fits just fine when sleeping, except we have to unlatch the bottom for her feet. She’s on the smaller side at 9 months old and about 17 lbs. This is Ivy in the DockATot Delux+ today.
