Maki Full-Size Portable Folding Crib

The Maki Full-Size Crib by Babyletto solves a problem that most full-size cribs don't acknowledge: sometimes you need to move it. The foldable frame and removable locking caster wheels make it genuinely portable — roll it between rooms, fold it for storage, bring it to grandma's for a weekend without renting a van. And unlike travel bassinets or pack-n-plays, the Maki is a real standard-size crib with a real standard-size mattress, four adjustable mattress height positions, and a toddler bed conversion kit included in the box.

The design is clean and geometric — modern lines, lightweight timber construction, no visual clutter. It looks like a considered piece of furniture because it is one. The low-profile design makes newborn placement easy, and the removable wheels lock securely so the crib stays put once you've positioned it.

Built from 100% FSC® certified solid New Zealand pine wood with TSCA compliant engineered wood mattress support. GREENGUARD Gold certified, lead and phthalate safe throughout. For NYC families managing multiple living spaces, frequent grandparent visits, or simply a home where the crib needs to move rather than sit fixed in one room, the Maki is the purpose-built answer.

Specifications

Best For / Not Ideal For

Best For

•       NYC families who move the crib frequently — between the bedroom and the living room, between a primary and secondary residence, or for regular grandparent visits — and want a real full-size crib with real portability

•       Parents who want standard-size everything: standard crib mattress, standard mattress positions, standard safety certifications, none of the mini-crib compromises that come with travel alternatives

•       Families with secondary living spaces — a weekend home, a grandparent's apartment, a co-parenting arrangement — where a real crib is needed but storage space is limited

•       Those who want the toddler conversion included from day one: the kit is in the box, covering the full crib-to-toddler-bed arc without additional purchase

•       Parents prioritizing indoor air quality and material safety: GREENGUARD Gold certified, 100% FSC® certified New Zealand pine, lead and phthalate safe throughout

Not Ideal For

•       Families who want the crib to stay fixed in one room permanently and don't need portability or fold-flat storage: a non-folding crib may offer a more rigid feel underfoot

•       Those who need convertibility beyond a toddler bed: the Maki is a 2-in-1 and does not convert to a daybed or full-size bed — for extended convertibility, the Hudson 3-in-1 or Gelato 4-in-1 are worth comparing

•       Buyers expecting a mattress included — the standard crib mattress is sold separately

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the Maki different from a pack-n-play or travel bassinet?

The Maki is a full-size standard crib — standard mattress size (52" × 27.75"), four adjustable mattress height positions, GREENGUARD Gold certified, toddler bed conversion included. A pack-n-play or travel bassinet is a temporary sleep solution with a smaller footprint, a thinner pad, and no path to a toddler bed. The Maki gives you full-crib quality with the portability of a travel option. It is the right answer when you need a real crib that also needs to move.

Can I roll it between rooms while the baby is sleeping?

The wheels are designed for room-to-room transport — unlock, roll to where you need to be, and re-lock before leaving the crib unattended. We'd recommend transferring a sleeping baby carefully, as with any movement. Always confirm the wheels are locked before leaving the crib stationary.

How compact does it get when folded?

The Maki's frame folds flat, making it significantly more compact for storage or transport than a standard assembled crib. It is designed to fit in a car trunk, a storage closet, or alongside furniture in a secondary space — the kind of versatility that makes it practical for grandparent visits or multi-home families.

What mattress does it take?

Standard crib size: 52" × 27.75". Babyletto recommends the Pure by Babyletto hypoallergenic and eco-conscious crib mattress line. Ask us what we currently carry.

How many mattress height positions are there?

Four adjustable positions. The low-profile design makes it easy to place and lift a sleeping newborn at the highest position. Lower the mattress as your baby learns to sit, pull up, and stand to keep the rail height safe.

Does the toddler conversion kit come included?

Yes. The toddler bed conversion kit is in the box — no additional purchase required to convert from crib to toddler bed.

Does it convert to a daybed or full-size bed?

No. The Maki is a 2-in-1 and converts to a toddler bed only. It does not convert to a daybed or a full-size bed. If extended convertibility is a priority, the Hudson 3-in-1 or Gelato 4-in-1 are worth comparing — ask us to help you decide.

Is it GREENGUARD Gold certified?

Yes. Tested for over 10,000 chemical emissions and VOCs. For a crib a baby sleeps in from birth, that certification is one of the most meaningful indicators of material safety available.

Can I see it in person at Babesta?

Floor inventory changes frequently. Contact our Tribeca store at 56 Warren Street for the most current information on what's on display.

Why Babesta Carries It

New York City families move differently than suburban ones. A second residence in the Hamptons or Hudson Valley. Grandparents across town or in another borough. A co-parenting arrangement that requires two real sleep setups. An apartment where the crib needs to go from the bedroom to the living room on a daily basis. The Maki exists for all of these scenarios, and there is no other full-size crib in our lineup that handles them.

The key distinction from a travel bassinet or pack-n-play is that the Maki doesn't ask for any compromise on the sleep environment. Standard mattress size, four mattress positions, GREENGUARD Gold certification, FSC® certified solid wood — everything a real crib has, in a frame that folds and rolls. For families who have tried to make pack-n-plays work as a primary sleep solution and found them lacking, the Maki is the upgrade they were looking for.

The toddler bed conversion included is the detail that makes the investment feel complete. This is not a short-term purchase — it is a crib that grows with the child through the toddler years, in whatever space it needs to live in. We carry it because no other piece in our lineup solves the portability problem at this level of quality.
