My parents got me a bed at eleven months, on advice of pediatrician. Well, as I recall, a mattress on the floor. I have a visceral reaction against what I've heard of other people doing, which is to turn the crib into more of a jail, but I'm not a parent, so you should probably ignore that reaction :-}.

Our friends up the street did mattress on the floor and never had a crib to begin with.

I have heard of two cases where the kids made the big-kid-bed transition at 12 months, so, yeah, it sounds like Junie's ready.
(wow!)
