When it comes to choosing a crib for your precious little one, the vast amount of choices can feel daunting. Convertible cribs take some of the weight (so to speak) away from all the future thinking that comes with having a baby.

Whether opting for a 3-in-1 crib that converts from baby to toddler or a 4-in-1 you can use into your child’s teenage years, the below brands have some of the best options—crafted, of course, with sustainability and the health of your home in mind. Looking for crib mattresses? Try these organic crib mattresses for your baby.
