Bassinets- A Guide for Parents!

Bassinets

Usually these models end up being chosen by some families for the convenience it can bring, leaving it beside the bed at night and for having a compact size, as it is extremely easy to accommodate in most
places in your home.

Some parents also usually replace the traditional crib with this version, for a certain period, as it offers the facility to have it next to your bed even in small places. Another positive feature of the bassinets is the child's safety, as it becomes a space just for them, preventing them from falling out of bed, or even bringing more peace of mind to the parents, as they don't have the baby in the middle of the bed at night with the possibility of squeezing the baby.

There are models that have some accessories already included or even features that make a lot of difference to help parents in their daily lives. You will find models that bring: mobile, accessories that emit sounds, music, lights, hood and even an adjustment on the side for easy access for the mother/father to pick up the baby at night. Other simpler ones bring only the mattress.

Most bassinets can be used until the child is approximately 20 pounds or up to about 6 months. This limit has a variation in weight and age as all brands indicate that it is no longer recommended when the baby is in the stage of sitting alone, being able to hang on its sides and fall.
