Use the assembly instructions for your exact DaVinci Roxanne model. Lay out the parts and hardware, follow the manual's step order, and check every connection before placing a mattress in the crib.

The Roxanne's assembly details can depend on the model and the parts included with your crib. The model label and manual are the best starting points; don't substitute instructions for a different DaVinci crib just because the frames look similar.

Where can you find DaVinci Roxanne crib assembly instructions?

Start with the manual that came with your Roxanne crib, then look for a digital copy using the exact model number. Check the packaging, paperwork, or product label for the model number before searching DaVinci's support materials.

If the manual is missing, contact DaVinci customer support and ask for the instructions for your specific Roxanne model. Include the model number and, if useful, a clear photo of the crib label so support can identify the correct version.

DaVinci makes several convertible cribs with different parts and hardware. Our DaVinci baby crib reviews can help you compare models, but a review or a similar crib's manual should not replace Roxanne's assembly guide.

What should you check before starting assembly?

Check that the model number on the crib matches the manual and that the parts and hardware are accounted for. Keep the instructions beside you so you can identify each component as you work.

  • Clear a flat area with enough room to lay out the crib parts.
  • Compare the parts and fasteners with the manual's inventory.
  • Separate hardware by type, keeping small pieces away from children.
  • Check wooden parts for cracks, splits, or damage before assembly.
  • Use only the tools and fasteners specified in the instructions.

Pause if anything is missing, damaged, or hard to identify. Ask DaVinci for guidance instead of guessing which screw or panel belongs in a connection.

How do you assemble the Roxanne crib safely?

Follow the manual one step at a time, and leave each connection accessible until the instructions tell you to tighten it. This helps keep panels aligned as the frame comes together.

Start by identifying the headboard, footboard, side rails, mattress support, and hardware using the manual's labels. The exact sequence and fasteners can vary, so use the Roxanne instructions rather than a general crib assembly sequence.

Keep the frame on a level surface while you attach parts. Don't force a fastener into a hole or use a substitute screw; a part that doesn't fit may be turned the wrong way or may belong in another step.

Once the frame is aligned, tighten the hardware as directed. Check that each connection is secure and that the crib sits evenly before you add a mattress.

How can you avoid common assembly mistakes?

Avoid mixing hardware, skipping steps, and tightening parts before the frame is aligned. If a piece doesn't fit as shown, stop and recheck the diagram and part orientation.

Don't drill new holes, modify a part, or add hardware that isn't called for in the manual. If the crib feels unstable after assembly, don't use it until you have checked the instructions and contacted the manufacturer if needed.

Keep the manual for future checks and any conversion steps. Convertible crib parts and conversion kits are model-specific, so confirm compatibility before changing the setup.

What should you check after assembling the crib?

Inspect the assembled crib against the manual before use. Confirm that the frame is steady, the mattress support is attached as shown, and all fasteners are secure.

Check that:

  • The crib is level and does not rock on the floor.
  • Rails and panels are correctly oriented and firmly attached.
  • No hardware is missing or protruding.
  • The mattress support is secured at the intended position.
  • The mattress fits the crib as specified by the manufacturer.

Follow the Roxanne manual for mattress fit, height settings, and ongoing checks. Stop using the crib and contact DaVinci if you find damage, loose connections that won't tighten, or parts that remain unclear.

Which cribs may suit a different nursery setup?

A different crib may be worth considering if you want a model with a different conversion path, included features, or footprint. These options are not Roxanne assembly replacements, so use each crib's own manual.

The DaVinci Jenny Lind 3-in-1 converts to a toddler bed and daybed, with its conversion kit sold separately.

The Dream On Me Synergy 5-in-1 converts to a toddler bed, daybed, and full-size bed configurations; the conversion parts are sold separately.

The Dream On Me Jayden combines a mini crib with a changing station and 3 drawers, and converts to a mini daybed and twin-size bed.

Choose based on the space and conversion options you need, then assemble the selected model only with its matching instructions.

What if the crib instructions or parts are missing?

Pause assembly until you have the correct manual and all required parts. Contact DaVinci with the model number and a description of what's missing or damaged.

Don't borrow hardware from another crib or rely on an online video for a different model. A video can help explain a step only when it clearly matches your exact Roxanne version and agrees with its written instructions.

How should you approach DaVinci Roxanne crib assembly?

Use the Roxanne manual matched to the crib's model number, and contact DaVinci if you can't confirm the right instructions or parts. If you're choosing another model, pick by the conversion features and nursery space you need, then follow that model's manual during assembly.
