Owing to the handles often attached to a Moses basket, you can easily manoeuvre the basket and take it into different rooms if you prefer to be close to your infant.

There is some research that found an increased chance of SIDS when using a second-hand mattress brought in from outside of the family home, although the link is not yet proven. Parents say it has a medium-firm feel and offer good support for a baby’s posture.

A Moses basket is one of the most popular options for newborns, as they tend to be lightweight, portable and allow you to keep your baby close to you at night. Moses baskets are a popular choice for newborn babies because they're light, portable and easy to store. According to the Lullaby Trust, the safest place to put baby down to sleep during the first six months is in their parent's bedroom. However, many people's bedrooms are simply not big enough for large, bulky cribs. Instead, the modest footprint of a Moses basket is a great solution. Plus, the lightweight basket can easily be carried around the house so that you can settle your baby down for a daytime nap in whatever room you happen to be in during the day. You can use a stand with your Moses basket to raise it up to a height that saves you from bending down too much. However, you can also simply place the basket on the floor or on any flat and sturdy surface so that you don't have to move the stand every time you move the basket into a different room.As well as keeping your baby close to you at night, Moses baskets are made from lightweight material and come with handles, so they’re portable enough to carry around the house – ideal during the first few months when newborns sleep up to 20 hours a day. Parents who’ve bought the mattress say it keeps its shape really well. The coconut and latex makes up the core of the mattress, a layer of temperature-regulating, breathable wool surrounds it, and then a cotton herringbone cover holds it all together. So far so good. However, the main issue consumers have with this mattress is that, green as it is, it’s not waterproof and is sponge-clean only. The Little Green Sheep also recommends that you buy one of its mattress protectors, so the price can start to mount up.
