Bedside crib

Looking for a bedside crib suitable for use with a divan bed. Was planning to buy a chicco next2me but they need to be secured to the bed frame/slats and our bed is a divan type bed with no exposed frame/slats to secure the next2me. Would want to use the crib with side down for ease when breastfeeding.

Would recommend the babybay which can be used with a divan

Thanks for the suggestion. I have just looked at the baby bay and can't see how it could be attached to a divan type bed base. It attaches with clamps but don't see what it could clamp to on a divan bed base. Apologies if I am being thick. The info/instructions on their website weren't that detailed but from the look of the clamps in the pics/diagrams they would need to clamp onto a bed frame.

Hello @Newmum1123
It's the babybay maxi box spring which is designed for divans - it has a long strap which runs under the mattress to hold the crib in place. However it looks like they might be hard to track down now.
