The Complete Natart Crib Buying Guide for Canadian Parents
A Natart crib is one of the most considered nursery investments a Canadian family makes, and our Montreal team at Kido Bébé has evaluated every current model. This guide helps you choose a Made in Canada, Greenguard Gold-certified Natart Juvenile crib with confidence.
Why Natart Stands Apart from Other Crib Brands
Natart Juvenile builds its cribs in a Quebec factory, with many artisans trained at the nearby accredited woodworking school. The furniture is solid wood, not particleboard, with very low VOC emissions verified annually by an independent third-party laboratory. Natart describes itself as the first baby furniture manufacturer in North America to earn Greenguard Gold certification, back in 2010. As an authorized retailer, Kido Bébé carries this Canadian craftsmanship and stands behind it.
Natart Crib Collections Available at Kido Bébé
The Natart Signature Series anchors the lineup, with Como offering classic panel lines, Toscano its arched spindles, and Taylor a clean mid-century look, alongside contemporary options like Greta and Palo. The Tulip sub-line leans further into eco materials, while Nest brings the family to a more accessible point. Kido Bébé carries a curated selection from the current range. Because Natart may refresh aesthetics without notice, confirm current availability and lead times with our team.
Convertible Stages, What 3-in-1, 4-in-1, and 5-in-1 Actually Mean
A 3-in-1 converts from a crib to a toddler bed to a daybed. A 4-in-1 adds a full-size or twin configuration, and a 5-in-1 typically adds a further stage, such as a double bed with a headboard. Conversion kits are sold separately and are model-specific, so a Como kit will not fit a Toscano. Every crib meets Health Canada SOR/2016-152 in its original form. As an authorized retailer, Kido Bébé can source the correct kit at the time of purchase.
Safety Certifications Every Canadian Parent Should Know
Health Canada SOR/2016-152 sets the mandatory safety standard for every crib sold in Canada, and all Natart cribs comply. GREENGUARD Gold goes further — a voluntary certification that screens for extremely low chemical and VOC emissions, which matters in a room where your baby spends most of the day. According to Natart, the company was the first in the industry to certify its full range in 2010, and confirms ongoing compliance through annual independent third-party testing.
Choosing a Natart Crib for Your Nursery Space
Natart offers island cribs, open on all four sides for easier access, classic cribs with a fixed headboard and footboard, and a dedicated line for compact nurseries. Before you choose, weigh your available floor space, door swing clearance, and whether a matching dresser from the same collection will fit. Montreal apartments often run narrower than suburban homes, so our showroom team can point you toward the Natart models that suit smaller rooms without crowding the walk space around the crib.
Matching Your Natart Crib with a Dresser and Nightstand
Natart designs its cribs, dressers, and nightstands as coordinated collection pieces, so a Como crib pairs with the Como dresser in matching finishes such as Dove, Wheat, or Graphite. Buying the full set from a single authorized retailer keeps finishes consistent and removes the risk of sourcing a discontinued color later. Crib and dresser configurations are a practical way to furnish the nursery in one pass, and our team can advise on available finishes and current lead times.

FAQs
Are Natart cribs made in Canada?
Yes. Natart Juvenile manufactures in Quebec and is one of Canada's leading baby furniture manufacturers. Many of its employees are trained at the accredited woodworking school located near the factory, and choosing Natart supports Canadian manufacturing. The cribs meet Canadian safety standards under Health Canada SOR/2016-152, with products tested annually by an independent third-party laboratory. Kido Bébé is an authorized Canadian retailer, so the Natart crib you buy from us is current stock backed by full warranty coverage and expert support.
What is the difference between a 4-in-1 and 5-in-1 Natart convertible crib?
A 4-in-1 Natart crib typically offers four configurations: crib, toddler bed, daybed, and a full-size or twin bed. A 5-in-1 adds a fifth stage, often a double bed platform setup. Conversion kits are sold separately and are model-specific, so the kit for a Como will not fit a Toscano. An authorized retailer like Kido Bébé can confirm which conversion kit corresponds to your chosen model and order it alongside your original purchase, so every stage is ready when your child is.
Is Natart GREENGUARD Gold certified?
Yes. According to Natart, the company was the first baby furniture manufacturer in North America to earn GREENGUARD Gold certification across its full range, achieving this in 2010. GREENGUARD Gold certifies very low VOC emissions and screens for thousands of chemical pollutants, with the certification extending across the Natart, Tulip, and Nest lines. Annual independent third-party testing maintains it. This matters most in a nursery, where your baby spends the majority of their sleeping hours close to the surfaces and finishes around them.
Do I need a special mattress for a Natart crib?
No. Natart cribs use a standard crib mattress size, the same dimensions required by Health Canada SOR/2016-152, so you do not need a proprietary or brand-specific mattress. The correct fit is a firm, flat mattress that sits snugly with no more than two finger widths of gap on any side. Kido Bébé carries crib mattresses compatible with Natart cribs, and the team can confirm sizing at the time of purchase or during an in-store consultation at our Montreal showroom.
Where can I buy a Natart crib in Canada?
Natart Juvenile is sold through authorized specialty retailers, not big box chains or online marketplaces. Buying from an unauthorized dealer risks voiding the warranty and receiving grey market or discontinued stock. Kido Bébé in Montreal is an authorized Canadian retailer for Natart Juvenile, carrying current models and offering conversion kits and matching nursery furniture sets. You can visit the showroom at 4100 Boulevard Thimens, Saint-Laurent, or browse the Natart collection on Kido Bébé's website to start your nursery.
