ABSTRACT:
A bedside crib (hereinafter "co-sleeper") that attaches to the parental bed that may be easily converted for use as a child's easel, couch, bassinet or toy display/storage device. The co-sleeper provides a rigid enclosure formed of a pair of sides, front and rear leg portions, a removable back, a mattress base with front retaining lip, and at least one removable shelf. The mattress base is hingedly attached to the front leg portion to tilt upwardly at an acute angle to a ground surface to serve as a child's easel. When the mattress base is tilted at a right angle to the ground surface and the back of the co-sleeper is removed, the latter may serve as a toy storage/display device. A removable front allows the enclosure to function as a bassinet. Height-adjustable leg extensions attach to the sides to adjust the co-sleeper to different heights for use with various beds and to raise or lower the co-sleeper for use in alternative modes (bassinet, couch, etc.). The removable shelves attach in different positions using various mounting holes in the sides. A mattress pad is used with the invention as a co-sleeper and a couch pad is used with the device as a small couch. A strapping member and retaining plate secure the co-sleeper to the parental bed. A removable base plate mounts beneath the mattress and above a shelf to provide an enclosed storage space below the mattress base. An art supply holder is removably mounted to the front retaining lip.
