Is this crib practical for a petite mother?

The mattress is set rather low into the crib....it could be problematic for a shorter person....unless a thick mattress is used in the crib.�

That's a tough question. If you are wondering if you can reach to the bottom level to pick up and lay your baby down, I would say it is a 'lower' crib. I have another crib from pottery barn that is definitely taller and harder to pick up and lay down my daughter. I chose this crib for my twins because it is more compact and smaller (as cribs go). I am 5'3" and can easily reach to the bottom level of the crib. Does that help?

That is a good question as I am 5'7". But I feel that it is low profile and would be easy for a petite woman to lean over to get little one out. I have to say it is much easier to get my son out of this crib than my other crib that was much taller. I would think this would be great for a petite mom. But I would also wait to see if someone gets back to you that is actually petite!

it comes with a slim mattress that for my purposes works fine, I think it would be a regular crib matress, not a mini. As a daycare provider I love how it folds flat to store, I can "wheel it out flat or open, and yet it is sturdy!

I would not recommend moving your baby in this crib. transporting your baby in anything that is not designed for transportation is unsafe. Granted, the crib is sturdy. It was very helpful while I recovered from my cesarean surgery. There was no heavy lifting and no easy up and down for me.

No. It is too small for a regular crib. I use it for a wooden portable crib. It has lasted 11 months now, and looks just like new.

I don't know what a mini crib is but this bed skirt fits in my standard size crib, so I'd say that the answer is no.

This will work for you! my mother was shorter than 5'....just don't try to put it together, have someone else do it!

There really isn't a lot of room for baskets so to say, but the crib itself is great!

I don't know if this is helpful but I am 5'2" and I have to stand on tippy toes to get my 20 month old into and out of the crib. It is currently on the lowest position. I think it's fine for taller people. We have been so happy with this crib. It's simple, easy to assemble and is high enough off the floor to put storage boxes underneath

It is low, but not a problem. The mattress is a decent size. We like it. Its quite sturdy as well. Changing diapers while inside the crib can be a back strainer though.. so if you have a changing pad/station, then this shouldn't be an issue.

NO support for small infant. It's pretty large. Baby would need your full support.

Maybe a little, but not any more trouble than you'd have with any other crib. I'm 5" tall, and I have more trouble placing my baby in the crib than getting her out. I think getting a low footstool would help.

This is for a regular size crib. I don't know how the dimensions compare to a mini crib, but I'd guess it's too big.

Its a mini crib and smaller changing table. Think the mattress is 32inches? I bought three cribs and sent them all back before I found something I liked. I absolutely love this crib. Easy for me to put together. And the package wasn't heavy at all. Not sure of your area but not a lot of blanket sets this size available in my stores. But the stores carry more online. I think its the perfect size crib. Tons of storage areas all around.

I am 5'3" and I bought this bed specifically because of its height. I do believe this may be too low for someone of your height. However, you may try recreating the crib using the measurements provided and some boxes and see for yourself. Having said that, I have a large family and have seen lots of cribs, I feel this by far suits our needs most!

Yes you could probably use it safely for a temporary crib for an infant. It is low to the floor and other than the fact that you will have to bend over to get the little one in and out, he/she will sleep just fine and certainly won't be tall enough for awhile to get out.

The mini crib does not have the same support system of metal springs like its full sized sibling. The mattress will sit on a plywood board. My daughter is big for her age and very rambunctious and often will jump herself to sleep for naps. The mini crib works well even though I was hesitant on the wood base. We use it over at my mom's house so its not her primary bed. Works well without complaints or issues 2 years now.

Yes - I think so. This crib's rails are some of the shorter ones that I have seen.
