Is Dulux water-based paint safe for baby cot?

We have purchased a paint at Bunnings to repaint a baby cot.

The staff said it was okay for us to use it and won’t be harmful. How true is this? We have not used the cot as we are thinking twice of using it after reading  all health issues concerning baby cot safety.

The name of the paint is Dulux water based white.

I'm not an expert on this @katrinakate and appreciate your baby's health/safety is paramount so do the research that make syou feel comfortable but my understanding is as low as it's water-based and no VOC you should be fine. Avoid acrylic and oil-based paints.
