We have only done it when we needed to both were 3 and coped very well with it

when they start climbing over the rails

No tips but I am going to follow for tiips as I am about to do the same

we just took the sides off our toddlers cot. well one side first and then lowered the other side then take that off then get a bed.

I think when you are ready, as they can then get out and walk to your room. Are you ready to get up and put them back to bed

Leave them in the cot until they climb out or you need it for the next one. Go straight to the single sized bed (NOT BUNKS) and use a pool noodle under the sheet to stop them falling out. The child should be at least one.

i dont think there is a set age. Every child is different so whenever you feel that you are ready and that your child is ready then go for it.

I transfered my girls at 12-15 months. My youngest i held off till about 20 months because she was smaller being a premmie

We are aiming to change our little one into a toddle bed around 2 1/2. As atm he just turned two and still doesnt climb out and shows no interest into climbing out

when they start to climb for sure

I find around 3 is a good age, they seem to enjoy it

when your child is ready, or when your child can climb out of the rail…too risky i think

I moved my son from a cot to a bed when he was starting to climb out of his cot!!! ~24mo

when they start being able to lift their leg to the top rail. about 20-24m

ok after lots of reading of wonderful advice i have received here i decided to try my daughter in her sisters bed while she was at a sleep over and it was a HUGE success now she is asking to sleep in it every night so i have ordered her bed and she will sleep in her big bed from this week thanks everyone
