About this deal

Sleep easy knowing that your bundle of joy is having the dreamiest slumber in one of our cosy baby Moses baskets. Ideal as a first bed for a newborn, we highly recommend Moses baskets so that your little one can sleep in the same bedroom as you for at least the first 6 months before making the move to a cot. Not only is it safer but it also means you and your angel can bond to your heart’s content. The compact design of Moses baskets complements the petite size of your teeny tiny, and as they grow up, you can swap it out for one of our baby cribs. With adorable designs and gorgeous colours to choose from, you’re bound to find the ideal Moses basket to match your bedroom décor. Canopy - Does the Moses basket have a sunshade or canopy to keep your baby cool? Does this stay up unassisted?

So much cuteness I can’t handle it. There’s something so empowering and satisfying about such cute patterns – knowing that you have the ability in you to create something so adorable and mood-lifting. This gorgeous piece is a great choice for Easter décor and keeping some sweet treats in. This pattern is knit on circular needles without any increase or decrease. The ears are knit separately and sewn on. Once it’s all knit up, you can just add on a faux fur pom pom to make it complete and uber-cute.

Why Buy Me?

This is really sleek - it looks like a big fancy hotel bathtub," says our tester, Grace. "Also there is just one button on the cot itself so you can’t go wrong in the middle of the night when you’re staggering around in the dark." If you need a new or replacement Moses basket mattress, we can help too. Our Moses basket mattresses are also made using only natural ingredients. They provide firm support as recommended by safe sleep experts, are breathable and anti-dust mite and come with a luxurious Herringbone cotton cover.

The mattress is washable but it's not a standard size, so factor that in when you're buying bedding. The plastic sides and handles add robustness, which makes this a good choice if you'll be carrying it up and down stairs frequently. Our wide selection of award-winning, natural Moses baskets are made using specially sourced palm leaf. This helps create an eco-friendly and natural space for your baby to sleep and helps keep our Moses baskets lightweight and portable - perfect for travel or moving from room to room. Pair with our Moses basket stand for maximum flexibility!The quality of this Moses basket is impressive, and the knitted liner adds a touch of seriously cosy luxury. "It's very chic and looks quite Scandinavian in design," says Kate. "But it's also very practical – the liner stopped my baby from scratching her hands on the inside of the basket, which happens in our own Moses basket. That makes this one feel warm and cosy." Best luxury Moses basket: Silver Cross Luxury Moses basket and stand with 100% organic botanical liner This was easy to put together, with just a few connecting parts. "It was up and ready to use within 15 minutes," says Katie. "Having said that, the instructions aren't easy to follow, so we disregarded them and just used common sense!" While they’re great for small babies, Moses baskets aren’t known for being usable beyond this. Once your baby can roll or move, it is time to move them to a bigger cot and, if you have a long baby, they may outgrow their Moses basket before then. There are large Moses baskets on the market though, which may last longer.

Here at The Little Green Sheep, we know the importance of providing babies with a safe and snug place to sleep. That's why many parents find that as well as baby cribs and beside cribs, a Moses Basket is an essential addition to your nursery, bedroom or living room space. Next, she selected the final product line-up from a broad range of price points - so there's something here to suit every budget. We then called on our pool of reliable parent testers and assigned each of them a Moses basket to review with their baby. They tested the product rigorously for at least ten days, before giving each product a rating out of five for overall performance. Our Consumer Editor Heidi Scrimgeour came up with a shortlist of Moses baskets based on her product knowledge and industry research, and by looking at the latest offering from the market-leading brands. As a mum of three and a parenting journalist for 15 years, what she doesn't know about baby products isn't worth knowing. So is the Snoo Smart Sleeper worth its hefty price tag? Would our tester recommend the Snoo? "Yes and yes - wholeheartedly," she says. "I believe that sleeping better, thanks to the Snoo, has allowed my husband and me to enjoy these special early days and weeks with our daughter more, which is priceless."If you are even a bit concerned about keeping your living space organized, you know you can never have enough storage baskets and organizers. The best part about handmade knitted baskets is knowing your exact requirements. You know how small or big you need it to be, the colors you prefer, and whether you want it to be minimal or a bit decorative. That said, get your yarn stash out and knit away! MORE ABOUT KNITTING Verdict: Overall, this is a stylish and compact bassinet, with useful functionality to help soothe your baby to sleep. "It's soft and cosy, and my baby was content both chilling and sleeping in the bassinet," adds Katie. "The muted colours, with beige or grey options will complement most nursery colour schemes. And the storage basket will come in handy in smaller rooms." Verdict: The only downside is that this Moses basket seems less roomy in comparison to others we tested, so it may not last your baby as long as others. "My baby was 9lbs at birth, so there's not much room in this for her to stretch out," adds Katie. "For that reason, it's probably better suited to smaller babies."

Meets BS EN 1466:2014 (basket and stand); BS 1877-10:2011+A1:2012 and BS 7177:2008+A1:2011(mattress) I found the assembly instructions very difficult to understand, with just pictures and no description or written steps, but once I found a video online to follow, it was actually quite simple to put together," says Katie. "The cot is a great size, with soft sides and breathable mesh walls, but it doesn't come with a mattress – you have to buy that separately." WARNING: Be aware of the risk of open fire and other sources of strong heat, such as electric bar fires, gas fires, etc. in the near vicinity of this product. Helping to keep your baby safe, secure and snug, a Moses basket is the first bed they will lay their head to rest. One of the best things about a Moses basket is the fact that many are portable, meaning you can keep your bundle of joy right by your side, no matter the time of the day. Most experts recommend using one of the best Moses baskets from birth until your baby is 6 months of age or starting to sit up. Once they reach this all-important milestone, it's time to move your baby to one of the best cot beds or one of the best bedside cribs.

More Crafts

Overall, this Moses basket impressed Kate. "It's very easy to set up – you just need a screwdriver – and the design is definitely different to a traditional Moses basket," she says. "It's made of white plastic, which makes it easier to clean, and means it would suit a modern home or someone who likes a minimalist aesthetic. It's also light and quiet to carry around, yet it feels robust and sturdy." WARNING: Do not use the mattress if any part is broken, torn or missing and use only replacement or spare parts approved by the manufacturer. Our consumer editor says: The WoolNest is a stylish, contemporary twist on a classic Moses basket. It's made from high-quality, blended wool felt with robust cotton straps. It comes with a breathable foam mattress with an aloe vera-infused quilt cover that's easy to unzip for washing. However, the stand isn't included, so factor that into your budget. Katie loves the look of this Moses basket and found the soothing centre a useful extra. "This bassinet looks soft, cosy and luxurious – the 'soft truffle' is a lovely, warm beige colour – and the whole thing is surprisingly compact so it doesn't take up a huge amount of space."
