Tommee Tippee Sleepee Baby Moses Basket and Rocking Stand, Grey

Product Information

Moses baskets are great to have next to your bed and also as a portable option to move downstairs during daytime. You should never move a Moses basket with your baby inside though. You should share a room with your little one for the first six months. But, to avoid having to move a Moses basket every morning and night, Jenna suggests: "You can have a Moses basket in the lounge or kitchen for when you're downstairs and a permanent cot in your room for your little one." You won't use a Moses basket for long, but this piece of baby kit will have huge sentimental value. You might want to keep it for another baby or as a little basket for teddy bears. Some designs fold neatly away for easy storage once outgrown. Sarah: This basket was so lightweight that I managed to move baby from room to room safely. The fact that it was so easy to wipe clean or wash the inner materials is also a bonus. No stains were ever left behind - so the moses basket still looks like new after many weeks of use. Very pleased with the quality. Would you recommend this to other parents? Our baby nail clippers are safe and easy to use. The moulded handle helps prevent slipping while the gentle, rounded edge clippers are designed specifically for tiny fingernails and toenails.

Some mums prefer their babies to sleep in a cot from day one, as it means not having to make the transition from a bedside crib to a cot later on. Others think their tiny newborn might feel rather lost in the vastness of a cot and prefer a cosier cocoon for the first few months. If that's you, or if you can't fit a cot in your bedroom, then a Moses basket is the answer. Would a bedside crib be better? Designed to be ultra-safe for overnight sleep, the Sleep Tight Baby Bed features raised sides that are both firm and snuggly to keep babies protected and comfortable at the same time. They’re also made from sustainably sourced, quality materials that are 37% plant-based — ideal for eco-conscious parents. Each basket will have a specific weight or age specified, but it’s best to move your baby out of their Moses basket when they’re able to sit up unaided. This is because the basket could tip or your baby could climb out. How to buy a mattress for your moses basket

Designed to be smaller than your standard baby beds, Moses baskets are practical beds that don't take up much room in your home and can be used in your bedroom or in the living room for daytime naps. They're also suitable baby beds to travel with if you need to. It’s both bigger and sturdier than you'd expect and very functional too, with the plastic not only making it easy to keep the basket clean but much quieter so your baby can sleep undisturbed. Isn’t that what all new parents want? Price — Moses baskets tend to be a little on the pricey side, especially classic woven designs. But there are still plenty of affordable options available, so it’s a good idea to set a budget and shop around. Moses baskets can be pretty versatile. You can have one for your baby in your bedroom or even for the room you spend the most time in during the day. Most Moses baskets also come with handles so that they can be easily moved too.

We had a Moba, which my daughter loved. We carried it up and downstairs and she was in it until she was about 7 months. I think the company has been sold and they are called something else now." (Tried and tested by Mumsnet user BoudicasBoudoir)

Baby sleep experts the Lullaby Trust say, “The safest place for a baby to sleep is in their own clear, flat, separate sleep space, such as a cot or Moses basket.” Florence: Keep the basket as it is but I would invest in better quality materials and a sturdier finish on the base as I can't see the current one lasting more than one baby. I didn't feel reassured that my baby was well supported and in the end used this a lot less than I thought I would. It would also be nice to have a second liner in the box as this is bespoke to the product I think. verifyErrors }}{{ message }}{{ /verifyErrors }}{{
