How to Choose and Assemble the Ideal Baby Changing Table

Welcome to the ultimate guide on choosing and assembling the perfect baby-changing table for your little one's nursery! A well-assembled changing table is crucial for ensuring your baby's safety and comfort and providing you with a convenient space for diaper changes and storage. At The Allsup Company, we specialize in baby changing table assembly, and we're here to share our expertise to help you create the ideal nursery environment.


Choosing the Right Baby Changing Table


The perfect baby changing table creates a safe and functional nursery. With so many options available on Amazon, it's essential to consider factors like size, material, design, and storage to find the one that best suits your needs. Let's dive into the key aspects to remember while making your decision.


Size: The size of the changing table should complement your nursery's available space. Measure the area you plan to place the table and ensure enough room for you to move around comfortably while changing your baby's diaper.


Material: Baby changing tables come in various materials, including wood, metal, and composite. Consider your preferred look and feel, durability, and ease of cleaning. Wooden changing tables offer a classic appearance and tend to be sturdy, while metal and composite options can be lighter and more affordable.


Design: Changing tables come in different designs, such as open shelves, drawers, or a combination. Think about the style that best matches your nursery decor and organizational preferences.


Storage: Adequate storage is essential for keeping diapers, wipes, and other changing necessities within reach. Some tables offer built-in shelves or drawers, while others feature open compartments or a combination of storage options. Consider your storage needs and choose a changing table that will accommodate them.

  1. Screwdriver (Phillips or flat-head, depending on the screws provided)

  2. Hammer

  3. Allen wrench (usually provided with the changing table)

  4. Level (to ensure the table is stable and even)

Step-by-Step Assembly Instructions:


While assembly instructions may vary for different baby changing tables, here's a general overview of the process:


  1. Unpack and organize all parts and hardware. Lay them out and familiarize yourself with each component.

Safety Tips and Best Practices


Ensuring your baby's and yourself's safety while using the changing table is paramount. This section will discuss some essential safety tips and best practices for securing your changing table, using it safely, and maintaining it over time.


Baby changing table securely fastened to wall

To prevent accidents and enhance safety, securing your changing table to the wall using furniture straps or brackets is crucial. Follow these steps:


  1. Locate a wall stud behind the changing table using a stud finder.

  2. Attach the provided furniture straps or brackets to the wall stud and the back of the changing table, following the manufacturer's instructions.

  3. Double-check that the straps or brackets are securely fastened and that the changing table is stable.

Safe Use of Changing Table:


  1. Never leave your baby unattended on the changing table, even for a moment. Always keep one hand on your baby during diaper changes.

  2. Use the safety strap with the changing pad or tray to secure your baby while changing diapers.

  3. Organize your supplies within easy reach to avoid stretching or straining while your baby is on the changing table.

  4. Avoid placing toys or mobiles above the changing table that may tempt your baby to reach or stand up.

Regular Maintenance and Inspection:


To ensure your changing table remains safe and functional, perform regular maintenance and inspections:


  1. Check for loose screws or connections and tighten them as needed.

  2. Inspect the changing pad or tray for any signs of wear or damage, and replace it if necessary.

  3. Clean the changing table regularly using a damp cloth and mild detergent, followed by a dry cloth to remove moisture.

  4. Monitor the stability of the changing table over time, and make any necessary adjustments or repairs.

Following these safety tips and best practices will create a secure and comfortable environment for diaper changes, keeping you and your baby safe and happy.
