Buying Guide

The wicker baby bassinet is a classic part of a baby’s first few months of life. It provides a cozy place for your little one to rest and has an aesthetic that moms can’t get enough of. Also known as a Moses basket, these baskets offer mom the ability to carry their baby around the home as they sleep snug in the basket. The most important thing to keep in mind is that these baskets should be used only during the day while mom is able to keep a close eye on baby. The best place for a small infant to sleep is in a crib with a fitted sheet on the mattress.

Just like with any decision on what product to buy for your baby, it’s important to consider a few things when browsing through wicker baby bassinets. Safety is always of utmost important for a small baby, which is why we’ve compiled a list of things for you to consider. Check these out to figure out what wicker baby bassinet is the best for your baby or to give as a gift to the new parents.

How deep the bassinet is should be considered so baby doesn’t have the ability to roll out. We’re not sure if it’s possible for a basket to be too deep, though there should be some sort of middle ground as to how deep the basket is. You want to be sure baby is secure in the bassinet, but you also want to be sure the baby doesn’t feel too “closed in”.

A much more important issue is the thickness of a mattress. The American Society for Testing and Materials recommends that the mattress should be quite firm and no more than 1 inch thick. Otherwise, it can increase the risk of SIDS.

Bassinets have several different types of frames for the basket to be placed on. Several offer wheels for easy portability, others have shelves for storage of items such as diapers, wipes, blankets, etc., and some even rock to help put baby to sleep.

Bassinets have other features to take into consideration. Hoods are commonly placed over the head of the bassinet to shield baby from bright light. Some are woven in and stationary while others are able to be adjusted. Some baskets have handles on the sides for mom to easily take the basket off the cart and place the basket somewhere else.

All of these things should be considered depending on how much convenience is desired and personal preference. In most cases, you can’t lose with a wicker bassinet. They’re simply adorable!
