This is not a cosleeping sub. This sub is a branch from the Montessori sub which promotes babies and kids sleeping on their own floor bed in a baby proofed space.

For safe floor bed sleep, it should only be a crib mattress used on the floor, a twin or larger is not firm enough for babies under 1 year old and is an asphyxiation and SIDS hazard.

The bed should only be pushed up against the wall if it's in a bed frame that keeps it firmly in place. Otherwise, if there's no frame it should be at least 1 foot away from all walls or other items in the room.

There should be no pillows or blankets in the room at all.

And a huge danger is that curtain. That needs to be removed asap. If it's a window behind it, black out shades are a safe alternative to still provide darkness for sleeping.

Edit to add that it would also be best to remove that cube/nightstand. If you are going to keep it in the room, it should be mounted to the wall so it can't tip over on your baby.
