If you’re a parent-to-be and in the market for a crib with style, you might want to check out the new Alma urban cot/crib by Bloom. The modern-style birch bed is for newborns to 24 months. Two adjustable mattress heights offer benefits of a baby bassinet or a cot/crib. Available in white coconut or crisp gala green, it retails for $400. The 37 1/4-inch wide crib comes with casters for easy mobility. It’s also space-friendly -- folding down to a mere 9 3/4-inch profile when baby stays in grandma’s tiny apartment. Perhaps the best news of all -- Alma requires no tools for assembly. www.giggle.com and www.bloombaby.com
