A Moses basket or crib will likely be your baby’s first bed when you bring them home from the hospital, so we understand that is an important purchase to make. A Moses basket will see your baby through to around 3 months old and many parents choose to use a Moses basket as well as bedside crib so that they can situate one downstairs and one upstairs – for ease. We do recommend that babies sleep in as few places as possible as to not disrupt their sleep pattern, however, this is a good option if you want to multiple sleeping arrangements for them.
Moses baskets are supportive sleep spaces for young babies to relax in. Thanks to the small and comforting area, they are ideal for babies aged between zero and four months. However, as each baby is different, if you notice that you have a fast developer or a little one who needs additional support for more time, you can use a Moses basket as you see fit.
Using a Moses basket is brilliant not just for short amounts of time but also for overnight sleep. Incorporating it with a robust stand is a fantastic way to guarantee a child is kept safe, as it offers a stable place to rest. These stands are also ideal for helping parents as they mean the baby can be positioned close to them. They are also helpful as they mean less bending down is needed to place the baby back in a comfortable position. Finally, using a stand also means the Moses basket can be placed in many locations, offering versatility for parents.
Using a stand and Moses basket set up for sleep is a brilliant choice for young babies. The set up is easy to construct meaning familiar sleeping conditions can be used in a variety of settings. Whether you plan on travelling or just need to watch your baby in different home rooms, mobility is ensured.
The designs can also offer better value for money than a newborn cot as they combine sleeping and travel accessories into one in terms of moving around homes. They also provide conditions designed for young babies as they are smaller. This ensures safety considerations are met whilst maintaining healthy conditions for a baby's developing body.
Both Moses baskets and their stands are created to be robust and durable offering a design that will last over time. The baskets themselves are made from strong materials whereas the stands are also constructed from robust frames with secure fixings. Finally, using a Moses basket and stand set up provides familiarity to a baby offering comfort and enhanced chance of developing healthy sleeping patterns.
The main safety concern is ensuring a baby has not outgrown the space that a Moses basket offers. If this is the case, development could be negatively impacted.
You should always ensure that a proper lining is in place to provide added support. Also, it’s important to select a professional and quality design. This ensures that the construction is proper, allowing ventilation and protection, but also means it will be durable. Finally, the stability of a stand must always be checked before placing a baby in the basket to eliminate the chance of accidents from occuring.
