A newborn’s sleep environment is crucial, and the Moses basket is becoming the preferred choice of many mothers because it is natural, portable and safe. In this article, we will analyse the advantages of Moses baskets and their applicability to help you choose your baby’s first bed scientifically!**

✅ What is a Moses basket?
The Moses basket is a portable cot designed for newborn babies, usually hand-woven from natural plant fibres such as straw, rattan and watercress. It is lightweight, breathable and suitable for newborns aged 0-3 months.

✅ Why do new mums love Moses baskets?

1. Womb-like security
   As babies come from the womb to the outside world, they are particularly sensitive to sound, light and temperature, and the soft, enveloping feel and closed nature of the Moses Basket helps babies transition to independent sleep.

2. Removable, lightweight design
   Unlike heavy cots, the Moses basket can be moved at any time – mum can keep her baby with her in the living room, kitchen or bedroom without disturbing her sleep.

3. Natural, safe and non-toxic
   Quality Moses baskets are usually made from natural, chemical-free materials. For example, our Moses baskets are made of FSC-certified straw with OEKO-TEX standard fabrics to ensure that your baby’s skin is not irritated.

4. Aesthetics and functionality
   The Moses basket has also become one of the most popular home furnishings for mums in the mother and baby Instagram world. It is warm, soft and close to the natural living concept.
   

✅ Is it right for your baby?
The Moses basket is best suited for newborns weighing up to 9kg. It is not a substitute for a cot, but is ideal for the first 2-3 months of your baby’s life. It should be used with a sturdy support and avoid placing toys, blankets, etc. inside the basket to increase the risk of suffocation.

Conclusion:

In today’s fast-paced parenting world, the Moses basket is like a peaceful little world that allows the baby to better adapt to the new environment and makes every moment of the mother’s care easier and more natural.
