How to Organise a Nursery Pocket Organiser on a Cot

Quick answer

Attach the nursery pocket organiser securely to the cot rails using the built-in straps, then arrange items by frequency of use for easy access.

Steps to attach and organise your nursery pocket organiser

1. Choose the right spot on the cot: Pick a side of the cot that is easily accessible from your usual position (e.g., near the head end if you stand there). Make sure the organiser won't interfere with the cot's mattress or any drop-side mechanism. Avoid placing it near a drop-side if your cot has one, as the straps could obstruct movement.
2. Secure the straps tightly: Wrap each strap around a vertical cot rail and fasten it. Pull the strap snug so the organiser sits flush against the rail and doesn't sag. Double-check that the straps are not twisted. Test by gently pulling the organiser—if it shifts, tighten the straps further.
3. Arrange items by frequency of use: Place the most-used items (nappies, wipes, a change of clothes) in the easier-to-reach pocket. Store less-used items (extra pacifiers, small toys) in the second pocket. This reduces fumbling during busy moments. Leave the bottom pocket for heavier items so the organiser stays balanced.
4. Check for safety and stability weekly: Re-tighten the straps as needed, especially after washing or if the cot is moved. Ensure no loose items can fall into the cot where the baby could reach them. Remove the organiser when the baby can pull up to standing, as it could become a climbing hazard.
