Moses Baskets

Yes, Moses baskets are safe for newborn babies. The soft, plush fabric and padded sides help create a cocoon-like environment that is comforting and safe for young babies. Additionally, the basket's handles make it easy to transport from room to room and take on the go. This makes Moses baskets an ideal sleep solution for busy families.

Moses baskets can be used for overnight sleeping, and many babies sleep comfortably in their baskets for up to 6-8 hours at a time.

If you are using your Moses basket for overnight sleep, we recommend placing the basket on a Moses basket stand or firm, flat surfaces like a bed or bedside crib. Additionally, make sure you remove any pillows, blankets, or toys from inside the basket before putting your baby down to sleep.

While Moses baskets are safe for babies to sleep in on the floor, it is generally recommended you use them with a Moses basket stand. This helps reduce the risk of babies falling out of their baskets and makes it easier for parents to reach in and comfort their babies during the day and at night.

Using a sturdy Moses basket stand will also help to ensure that your Moses basket stays in place and is not easily tipped over. A rocking stand is a great way to give your baby a comforting night's sleep.

The best Moses basket for you and your baby will depend on several factors, including your budget, style preferences, and whether or not you plan to use the basket for travel.

Our grey and natural options are perfect if you're looking for a traditional Moses basket that won't break the bank. For something a little more colourful, take a look at our Honey & Honey Rice baskets. Rocking Moses baskets are also popular with some parents.

Safe sleep guidance advises that your baby must sleep in the same room as you in their first six months. After that time, some parents choose to move their babies into cots or baby cribs and will stop using their Moses basket.

Regardless of when your baby stops using their basket, babies will always have fond memories of this special place where they learned to sleep on their own and snuggle up close to mum and dad.
