An infant apparatus that has a base, a vertically movable hood and a plurality of walls that, together, enclose therein an infant compartment for locating an infant. The apparatus has three of the walls that can be opened and act as doors, the lateral side walls and the front end wall. There is an interlocking engagement between the upper periphery of the side lateral walls and hood by a plurality of pins that depend downwardly from the hood and engage upper brackets located at the top side edges of the front and rear end walls. A latching arrangement allows all three doors to be opened with the side lateral doors being latched by a movable latch member on the lateral side doors that enters an opening in the brackets affixed to the front and rear end walls. To open the front end wall, the front end wall can be moved vertically upwardly to disengage the movable latch members from the openings in the brackets on the front end wall to enable the front end wall to pivot downwardly. An alignment mechanism is also provided to insure that the movable latch members correctly align with the openings in the brackets when the lateral side walls are being closed. By a combination of the features, the overall apparatus allows three walls to act as doors and be opened individually, or cumulatively with considerable access to the infant while maintaining good integrity to the overall apparatus.
