Bassinets are practically the
first beds for infants. Though it
is possible to place babies in a
full sized crib from birth, some
parents prefer a bassinet
because of the closeness of its
small space. This closeness of
space is comforting to the
infant, while the portability of
the bassinet makes parents
happy that their baby is close
at hand.
Bassinets usually come with a
detachable hood and most of
them have wheels to
conveniently move the baby
from one room to another.
Some of them also have
folding legs to help save space.
Though hospitals use stainless
steel bassinets, there are
stylish bassinets in the market
for parents who wish to buy a
bassinet. If you too plan to buy
a bassinet, make sure the
mattress securely fits without
any gap between the pad and
bassinet edge.
The bassinet should not have
any sharp or rough edges that
may cut or scratch the baby or
parent. Ensure that the
bassinet is stable, has a wide,
safe base and is solidly built.
Any folding mechanism it has
should lock securely in place,
even its hood.
As usual, it is better to buy a
bassinet that is manufactured
by a reputable company that
guarantees the product |
