Arrangement in the parental room of a bed for a newborn may be due not only to the lack of space in the apartment. According to psychologists, in the first months of life, children feel much calmer when they are near their parents, and not in another room.
In addition, the baby needs round-the-clock attention and it is easiest to provide it if mom and baby are always there. But for this it is not enough just to put a cradle in the room - the design of a bedroom with a crib must be well thought out. Especially if this is a small room no more than 12 square meters.
interior layout
The installation of a crib in the parent's bedroom is temporary, because in one or two years either the baby will be relocated, or a clearer zoning of this room will be required. Therefore, the cradle cannot become the central element of the interior, without which its harmony will be disturbed. The basis of the design of the bedroom should always be an adult bed.
In some cases, it will be useful to draw up a plan on paper, taking into account the dimensions of the bedroom and the dimensions of all furniture items intended for installation. So you can consider several options to choose the best one. At the same time, the layout should be the most convenient for parents, safe and comfortable for the baby.
Most often, cots are installed in the parent's bedroom:
- in a corner at some distance from an adult bed, as a rule, through a chest of drawers, a table, a nightstand;
- opposite the headboard so that the baby is constantly in sight;
- right next to the parents' bed, while the adjacent side of the crib is removed. A very convenient option for sleeping, but it somewhat limits the passage to the mother's sleeping place.
The best solution is to put the crib in the corner, where it will be protected from all extraneous influences. But if the place near the middle of the wall and even in the center of the bedroom meets all the specified requirements, then it is also suitable for arranging a children's corner. It is advisable (even for a bedroom of 12 sq m) to install. If the room is very small, a bed with niches will do.
Zoning. To make the design of a bedroom with a crib truly harmonious, you can use such an effective technique as. You can select the zone of the newborn using several methods:
- by installing full-fledged partitions that will ensure complete isolation of the child. But it is undesirable to use such in a small bedroom with an area of \u200b\u200bless than 12 square meters;
- using mobile partitions - screens or curtains;
- having equipped subdued artificial lighting near the crib;
- making color zoning.
Arrangement of a children's bed should contribute to the creation of a cozy corner where the baby will be protected from environmental irritants. The bedroom with a crib fenced off by a curtain looks the most harmonious. Such a sleeping place will create a cover for the child during the rest, but will not completely separate him from his parents, ensuring full development.
Making a corner of a newborn
Light zoning will streamline the interior of the bedroom and highlight the corner of the newborn. But besides this, it is desirable to make it truly childish. The best ideas are the use of a canopy and partial decoration of the wall near the crib. will add charm to the children's area, and also protect the baby from bright light, drafts, dust. And the decor on the wall will make this part of the room more cute and attractive.
To decorate the wall, you can use:
- baby photos;
- posters with fairy tale characters;
- stickers with cartoon characters;
- inscriptions or volumetric letters (child's name in full or its initial letter);
- art objects, night lamps, other children's items.
In addition, the bed itself can be made in a fabulous style - for example, a princess carriage for a girl or a pirate ship for a boy. Such beds are usually mobile, which is important for small bedrooms up to 12 sq. m.

Organization of lighting
Lighting fixtures play an important role in the interior of the bedroom, combined with the nursery. To properly equip lighting, you must follow two rules:
- bright ceiling lights are installed above the functional areas;
- soft lighting is organized at the crib.
At the same time, it is not recommended to create permanent twilight in the bedroom; the room should be sufficiently bright. A great option is to use diffused light fixtures. Ceilings can be decorated with night lighting, and it is advisable to equip the switches with glow intensity controls.

Features of finishing and design
The presence imposes certain restrictions on finishing materials and requires compliance with more stringent design conditions. Eco-friendly non-woven or paper wallpapers are suitable for wall decoration. Color schemes should have neutral, unobtrusive tones, such as cream, pale blue or light green.
If the room has an area of less than 12 square meters, it is better to refuse massive carpet products. To equip a cozy bedroom in which dust will not accumulate, a small, light rug is enough. Curtains are better to choose dense, but without folds or draperies. They will not let in the sunlight in the morning, which will prolong the sleep of the baby, and at the same time they will not become another dust collector.
When decorating the interior of a bedroom with a crib, generally accepted principles of compatibility should be observed. Adult and children's pieces of furniture can be designed in the same color to blend harmoniously into the overall picture, or accent, but it is necessary to support them with other elements, for example, or curtains.
Subject to these rules and recommendations, the layout of even a small bedroom no larger than 12 square meters and the installation of a crib in it will be completed successfully. When equipping a nursery in an adult bedroom, it is necessary to find such a compromise in order to create the safest and most comfortable conditions for the baby without compromising the interior design and the comfort of parents.
