Why Baby Change Tables Are Essential for Modern Nurseries

Choosing the right baby change table is vital for a safe and organized nursery. With the introduction of the Consumer Goods (Infant Sleep Products) Safety Standard 2024, effective January 2026, it’s crucial to ensure that your baby change table complies with the latest regulations. At Hallam’s Home, we prioritize safety, functionality, and style, offering you a carefully curated selection of baby change tables designed to meet these updated safety standards.

Safety and Stability Compliance

The new safety regulations ensure that baby change tables meet specific stability requirements to support the baby’s weight and movements without tipping over. Additionally, the standard mandates the use of non toxic materials to ensure the safety of your little one.

Enhanced Guardrails and Preventive Features

The 2024 Safety Standard requires baby change tables to include guardrails and safety straps to prevent accidents during diaper changes. These features provide extra protection, offering peace of mind for parents.

Sustainable and Non Toxic Materials

The new guidelines emphasize the use of low VOC paints, FSC certified wood, and non toxic finishes. These materials ensure your baby’s nursery is free from harmful chemicals, contributing to a healthier environment.

At Hallam’s Home, all our baby change tables meet these safety regulations, offering safety and sustainability.

With the updated Consumer Goods (Infant Sleep Products) Safety Standard 2024, it’s essential to choose baby change tables that meet the latest safety requirements. Look for tables that feature secure straps, high guardrails, and safe height features to prevent your baby from rolling off.

Durable, Sustainable Materials

Opt for baby change tables made from solid wood or FSC certified timber. These materials ensure long term durability and sustainability. Many models also feature low VOC paints or water based finishes, making them safe for your baby’s environment.
