From the manufacturer

From the start, Graco parents have been teaming up to help other parents. Founded in 1942 as Graco Metal Products, the Graco story really begins in 1955, when engineer Rex Thomas dreamed up the company’s first baby product and the first automatic baby swing: the Swyngomatic.

Product Description

The Graco® Pack 'n Play® Day2Dream Travel Bassinet Playard features a portable bassinet that can be used in the playard as a raised sleeping spot or removed from the playard for use as a self-standing bassinet at home or when traveling. The lift-out infant bassinet also features 2 height positions, to bring baby to just the right height by your bedside, in the living room, or on the go. The diaper changer features wipe-clean fabrics for easy care. Two carry bags are included, for the portable bassinet and the playard, for no-fuss travel and storage. The Day2Dream Travel Bassinet Playard is designed to transition seamlessly from an infant sleep and care station to a spacious toddler playard. An integrated storage organizer keeps baby's essentials close at hand. Compatible sheets are available, sold separately.

Best infant travel bassinets & portable cots for 2024.

Best travel cots

We all know how important children being well-rested is to a happy family trip.  But how do you ensure a good night’s sleep away from home for your baby or toddler without your normal bedding and familiar surroundings?

Do you rely on your accommodation providing you with a baby travel bed or do you always prefer to take your own?

If it’s a single destination trip, we always check that one is provided at the accommodation to save on luggage space .

However, more commonly we are making multi-stop trips that often involve staying with family and friends who may not have the right baby gear on hand.  We find it so much easier and less strain on everyone if we travel with our own portable baby bed or travel bassinet.

Using our many years of experience traipsing the globe with infants (and learning the very hard way that there’s a huge difference between a pack n play and a proper, portable travel cot!) we have put together our top choices of modern, lightweight travel cots, bassinets and toddler beds that will make your travels easier.

On this page we will talk you through:

  • The key features to look for in travel cots and infant travel beds
  • Our top picks – best travel bassinets and baby travel beds
  • Extra infant sleeping items you will need to pack
  • Alternatives to taking a baby travel bed with you

This post is part of our travel product reviews series .  Pop over to check out everything from kids comfort products to the best compact travel strollers .

Portable Travel Cot for baby or toddler - comparing the best infant travel bassinets on the market

Key features to look for in travel cots and infant travel beds

Portability – Undoubtedly the most important feature for our savvy family travellers.  We are already carting everything but the kitchen sink with kids let’s not make it any more hard work! Ideally, a cot that can fit inside your existing luggage and weighs under 15lbs.

Ease of assembling – The last thing you want when arriving late at night to your destinations is to be battling instructions and constructing a rocket ship.  Quick clear, easy folding mechanisms are a must.

The material – more specifically, can it be washed! When needs must, can you give is a quick sponge down or do parts easily come off to be washed?

Age range – Are you choosing something for a certain trip or stage of life or something that will last you for many years and children?  Newborn models might be ultra sleek and compact but only last you for a few months.  Larger models might be too much to carry for a baby but see you well into those toddler years.

Indoors or outdoors – Is this purchase for hotel and house stays only, or are you looking for something versatile that you can also take camping or out to the park with you as well? (We have a detailed review of our favourite baby beach tents here ).

Accessories – The key extra feature to check is does your cot comes with is a travel bag? If it is too large to fit in your suitcase and needs to be carried in as an extra item or gate-checked you will want something secure to transport the item in.  (Note many airlines allow a portable travel bassinet as an extra item to your usual weight allowance, but please always check this with your airline.)  Also, check whether a fitted sheet specific to the mattress is included or needs purchasing separately.

Cost – The sleek ultra-compact models don’t come cheap, but if you are a frequent traveller and plan on using for more than one child you can definitely see why the investment is worthwhile.

Our Top Picks – Best Portable Baby Bassinets & Toddler Cots

Let’s look at each of these travel beds and cots in a bit more detail.

Update March 2024 – since we first published this list there have been several new contenders in this market – and some discontinued lines we’ve removed. There are many new “sleep pods” or outdoor tents for baby. As our kids have now outgrown this phase we are just waiting for some friends and family to give us their feedback this summer then we will update our review to include these newer products.

phil&teds Traveller Crib

If you love their strollers you’re going to love the phil&teds portable travel cot too.  Coming in a compact travel bag, it’s a full-size infant cot that will last you from newborn right through to the toddler years but at a fraction of the normal porta cot weight. 

phil&teds Traveller Crib, Black , 31x46x24.8 Inch (Pack of 1)

The phil&teds Traveller has breathable mesh sides that can zip down and you can also get a UV cover, ideal if you are using outside as a playpen as well. The mattress is self-inflating but in our opinion, not do with being a little thicker still.

You can read our detailed product review of the Phil & Teds Traveller here

Pros – One of the most versatile models for sleep and play and super light at 6lbs

Cons – It is a little complex to build. Easy once you get the hang of it but needs some practice at home with interconnecting parts, not just one hand unfold.  And those feet really do stick out!

Lotus travel crib.

If you want ease of construction, this is the one you’ve been looking for! This beautiful product by Guava Family is only 11lbs and with side zip doors it doubles as a play cot too.

Guava Lotus Travel Crib with Lightweight Backpack Design | Certified Baby Safe Portable Crib | Folding Play Yard with Comfy Mattress for Babies & Toddlers | Compact Baby Travel Bed

Pros – Easy of construction, this is one if you want to avoid those late-night battles, and it is rather sleek looking!

Cons – Weighs more than others (though they’ve reduced it from 13lbs to 11lbs. And the price tag.

Luvberries 100% Organic Cotton Sheets for The Guava Lotus Travel Crib (Set of 2) - Baby and Toddler, Fitted Crib Sheets, for Boys & Girls (for The New 4 TAB Mattress ONLY) (Grey and White)

TODEFULL 2 in 1 Portable Playard

I know we said no more Pack & Plays! But this one is different. New, lean and mean the TODEFULL has some design features seriously worth considering as a long term baby travel cot investment.

TODEFULL Portable Travel Crib for Baby, 2 in 1 Folding Baby Travel Cribs and Playards with Mattress, Lightweight Playpen for Toddlers with Carry Bag, Pack and Play for Infants, Grey

It folds down seriously small for a playard to just 36″ x 30″ (91cm x 76cm) and weighs 8lbs (3.63kg). A little bulkier than the two above which we’d also call full-sized travel cots, but the Ounuo can also be used as a bassinet from newborn. The “One button” collapse model is a major win!

Pros – multiuse bassinet and playard – ideal for camping and a safe play area when you’re away from home

Cons – a little bulky but not many

Brica Munchkin Fold n’ Go Travel Bassinet

This is a brilliant portable choice for newborns.  Contains a firm mattress with a fitted sheet with a sturdy outer frame.  Once they are sitting upright though you will need to move on.

Munchkin Brica Baby Travel Pod, Grey

Pros – At only 2.4lbs its a super lightweight option that fits inside your suitcase or even your carry-on.

Cons – Only suitable for those first few months so isn’t a longer-term travel solution

Kidco peapod.

If you’ve graduated from newborn, here’s our next best recommendation.  In a pop-up cocoon style, this ultralightweight model is super easy to fold out and use so no late-night battles.  The mesh sides provide ventilation and its a great model for indoors or outdoors.  Comes with a gate check bag.

KidCo Peapod Portable Indoor Outdoor Travel Bed (Sky)

You can read a great detailed review of the KidCo PeaPod in use here

If they have outgrown the standard model, there’s also the Kidco PeaPod Plus which can last up to around 5 years of age.

Pros – Ability to anchor it to the ground. Easy fold mechanism

Cons – Child cannot stand up

Related Reading: Outgrown the plane bassinet?  Here’s how your infant can still get cosy on the plane

Baby delight snuggle nest.

A great option for when you want to co-sleep on the go, or for keeping a smaller infant snug and cosy on a larger bed or cot. With rigid sides and breathable netting but a firm waterproof mattress, it folds up beautifully compact for transportation.

Baby Delight Snuggle Nest Bassinet, Portable Baby Bed, for Infants 0 – 5 Months, Driftwood Grey

Pros – Really light and easy to include with your luggage

Cons – only for newborn

You can also look into the Baby Delight Snuggle Next Traveler XL , it folds up into a larger backpack style and is suitable for larger infants.

Aila+Aiden Baby Nest

This is the best solution if you would like to place your infant safely on a bed without a full-sized cot.   Good also for tummy time on the floor or using as a play space as well for younger tots.   It is only 3.32lbs but you will need to fit it in with your luggage as no bag.

Aila+Aiden Baby Nest, Baby Lounger, Organic Cotton Lounger for Baby, Reversible Breathable Adjustable Portable - Star Collection (White/Tan)

You can also get it in a larger size as your child grows.

Pros – Light and great for use on any flat surface.  Use at home too when you’re entering that transition phase.

Cons – Despite the lightweight, it’s quite bulky and will take up suitcase space, pricey.

Shrunks Toddler Travel Bed

Once they have outgrown the Dock-A-Tot style of bed, this is the next step up. An inflatable bed it folds down to a small bundle and weighs in at 6.6lbs, ideal for your toddler who might not quite be ready for a big-kid bed but still prefers more freedom than a travel cot. 

The Shrunks Inflatable Toddler Travel Bed with Safety Bumpers | Portable Toddler Bed for Kids | Toddler Air Mattress | Air Mattress with Bed Rails

The inflatable rails keep them snug and secure (or you can purchase just the inflatable rails separately  -see below).   The outside blown up dimensions are 60″ x 37″or inside dimensions 47″x 24″.

Pros –  Super for use as an extra bed at home, camping, sleepovers and fits most standard cot sheets – our top pick for camping with toddlers

Extra infant sleeping items you will need

Don’t forget bedding to go with your cot! 

Although most the products above might come with a fitted sheet, you will most likely need your own blankets and infant sleep bags.

Infant sleep bags are a superb travel accessory.  If your child is already familiar with sleeping in one, they will find the travel transition much simpler.  Think about the climate where you are travelling as they come in different “tog” ratings. Somewhere warm and summery you will only want a 0.5 tog or ski and snow trip you will want a 2.5 tog or more!

Alternatives to needing a baby travel bed

I won’t deny it, of all the baby gear we’ve lugged around the world, travel bassinets and cots are amongst the most cumbersome items and I am glad to finally see an end to them!   

That said, they have over the years been essential.   We all know what a huge difference it can make to have your kids sleep soundly, particularly in an unfamiliar environment. But do you always need to bring a travel cot?

  • If you are relying on your hotel or accommodation to provide the cot ALWAYS CALL TO CHECK AVAILABILITY.  Do they have the bedding as well or will you need to pack some sheets and blankets? Would they pass modern safety standards?
  • For very young infants, are you taking a travel systems stroller that includes the flat bassinet? There is no harm in a young infant sleeping in this while you travel (our favourites over the years have been Mountain Buggy and City Select )
  • Is there a baby equipment hire company at your destination that could help? Do make sure you read reviews and that they are able to deliver at your specified dates to either you or the property owner.
  • Why not get a new cot delivered?  If it’s too cumbersome to take back home with you see if your hosts will then buy it off you or discount your stay for leaving them some handy new equipment – you never know!
  • Will you need baby to sleep at the beach? Check out our portable sun tent options for baby .
  • If all else fails, can children co-sleep or create a make-shift bed out of existing bedding?

When it comes to traveling with a baby, one of the most common concerns parents have is ensuring that their little one gets a good night's sleep. This is where a travel bassinet can be a lifesaver. A travel bassinet is a portable bed specifically designed for babies to sleep in while on the go. It provides a safe and comfortable sleeping environment for your baby, no matter where you are. In this blog post, we will explore some of the benefits of using a travel bassinet for your baby's sleep.

  • Portability: One of the major advantages of a travel bassinet is its portability. These bassinets are lightweight, compact, and easy to carry. They often come with a convenient carrying bag, making it easy to transport them wherever you go. Whether you are taking a road trip, flying, or visiting relatives, a travel bassinet ensures that your baby has a familiar and comfortable sleeping space.
  • Safe Sleep Environment: Travel bassinets are designed with safety in mind. They usually have sturdy frames and secure straps to keep your baby in place. The bassinet walls are made of breathable mesh material, allowing for proper airflow and reducing the risk of suffocation. Many travel bassinets also come with a fitted sheet that fits securely over the mattress, ensuring that your baby stays safe throughout the night.
  • Comfort: Just like regular bassinets, travel bassinets are designed to provide a comfortable sleeping surface for your baby. They usually come with a soft mattress that supports your baby's body, ensuring a restful sleep. Some travel bassinets even have additional features like a soothing vibration option or a built-in nightlight, which can help lull your baby to sleep and create a familiar bedtime routine.
  • Familiarity: Babies thrive on routine and familiarity. When you use a travel bassinet, you provide your baby with a consistent sleeping environment, no matter where you are. The familiar space and smell of the bassinet can help signal to your baby that it's time to sleep, making it easier for them to settle down and fall asleep in unfamiliar surroundings.
  • Versatility: While travel bassinets are primarily designed for sleeping, they can also serve other purposes. Many travel bassinets have a detachable canopy that can provide shade and protection from the sun when you are outdoors. Some bassinets even have a bassinet-to-playpen conversion feature, allowing your baby to play and relax in a safe space during the day.

In conclusion, using a travel bassinet for your baby's sleep has numerous benefits. It provides a portable and safe sleep environment, ensures your baby's comfort, creates familiarity, and offers versatility for different situations. Investing in a travel bassinet is a wise choice for parents who want to ensure that their baby gets a good night's sleep even when away from home. So, next time you plan a trip with your little one, don't forget to pack your trusty travel bassinet!

When it comes to traveling with a baby, a travel bassinet can be a lifesaver. These portable sleeping options are designed to provide a comfortable and secure place for your little one to rest while on the go. However, it is important to follow safety guidelines to ensure the well-being of your baby. Here are some important safety tips to keep in mind when using a travel bassinet.

  • Choose a bassinet that meets safety standards: Before purchasing a travel bassinet, make sure it meets safety standards and follows guidelines set by relevant authorities. Look for certifications such as ASTM International or Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA) to ensure the bassinet has passed safety tests.
  • Use a firm mattress: The mattress in the bassinet should be firm and snugly fit in the bassinet. Avoid using soft or fluffy mattresses as they can increase the risk of suffocation or Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
  • Ensure proper ventilation: The bassinet should have proper ventilation to allow air to circulate freely. This helps prevent overheating and ensures your baby can breathe easily while sleeping. Check for mesh panels or other breathable materials in the bassinet construction.
  • Position the bassinet correctly: When placing the bassinet, make sure it is stable and level. Be cautious of any slopes or uneven surfaces that could cause the bassinet to tip over. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for setting up and positioning the bassinet.
  • Secure the bassinet: If the bassinet comes with straps or attachments for securing it to a bed or other surface, make sure to use them properly. This helps to prevent accidental movement or tipping of the bassinet while the baby is inside.
  • Keep blankets and pillows out: Avoid using blankets, pillows, or other loose bedding in the bassinet. These items can pose suffocation hazards to your baby. Instead, dress your baby in appropriate clothing to keep them warm during sleep.
  • Supervise your baby: While a travel bassinet provides a safe sleeping space, it is important to keep an eye on your baby at all times. Do not leave your baby unattended in the bassinet, especially if there are other children or pets around.
  • Follow weight and age limits: Most travel bassinets have weight and age limits specified by the manufacturer. It is crucial to adhere to these limits to ensure the bassinet can properly support your baby's weight and provide a secure sleeping environment.
  • Avoid placing the bassinet on elevated surfaces: To prevent accidental falls, avoid placing the bassinet on elevated surfaces such as tables or countertops. Always place the bassinet on the floor or a stable and secure surface.
  • Regularly inspect the bassinet: Before each use, inspect the bassinet for any signs of damage or wear. Check for loose screws, broken parts, or torn fabric. If you notice any issues, discontinue using the bassinet and replace or repair it accordingly.

By following these safety guidelines, you can ensure that your baby sleeps soundly and safely in the travel bassinet while on your travels. Remember that your baby's safety is the top priority, and it is important to exercise caution and good judgment when using any baby gear.

How to choose the right travel bassinet for your baby.

A travel bassinet is a must-have item for any parent who frequently travels or is planning a family vacation. This portable and compact sleeping space allows your baby to sleep comfortably wherever you go, ensuring they get the rest they need while maintaining their routine. But with so many options available, how do you choose the right travel bassinet for your baby? Here are some factors to consider:

  • Safety: The safety of your baby is of utmost importance, so make sure to choose a travel bassinet that meets the necessary safety standards. Look for certifications such as ASTM or JPMA, which ensure that the bassinet has undergone rigorous testing for safety.
  • Portability: The whole point of a travel bassinet is that it's easy to transport. Look for a bassinet that is lightweight, compact, and easy to fold. Ideally, it should fit into a travel bag or come with a carrying case for convenient storage and transportation.
  • Ease of setup: When you're on the go, you don't want to spend a lot of time setting up your baby's sleeping space. Look for a travel bassinet that can be easily assembled and disassembled, preferably without any tools required. A pop-up design or a bassinet with a simple foldable frame can be very convenient in this regard.
  • Comfort: Your baby's comfort is essential for a good night's sleep, so choose a travel bassinet with a comfortable mattress and bedding. Look for a bassinet with a firm yet cushioned mattress that provides adequate support and a soft, breathable fabric for the bedding.
  • Stability: A stable and sturdy bassinet will ensure your baby's safety while they sleep. Look for a bassinet with a strong frame that won't wobble or collapse easily. It's best to choose a bassinet with a wide base or stabilizing bars to ensure stability.
  • Versatility: Consider how versatile the travel bassinet is. Some models can double as a playpen or a changing station, providing you with additional functionality and saving space in your luggage.
  • Cleanliness: Babies are messy, so it's important to choose a travel bassinet with removable and machine-washable bedding. This feature will make it much easier to keep the bassinet clean and hygienic, especially when you're traveling.
  • Age and weight limitations: Check the age and weight limitations of the travel bassinet before purchasing it. Some bassinets are suitable from birth until a certain age or weight, while others have weight restrictions. Make sure your baby fits within the specified limits.
  • Reviews: Read reviews from other parents who have used the travel bassinet you are considering. Their experiences and opinions can provide valuable insights into the pros and cons of the product.

By considering these factors and doing your research, you can choose the right travel bassinet for your baby. Remember to prioritize safety, portability, ease of use, and comfort to ensure your baby has a restful and secure sleep no matter where you are.

The Ultimate Guide: How to Travel from London to Borneo

As a parent, traveling with a baby can sometimes be a challenge, especially when it comes to ensuring they get a good night's sleep. However, with the right tips and tricks, you can help your baby sleep well in a travel bassinet, making your journey smoother and more enjoyable for both you and your little one. Here are some tips to help you achieve this:

  • Choose the right travel bassinet: Before traveling, invest in a travel bassinet that is suitable for your baby's age and weight. Ensure that it is safe, comfortable, and easy to set up. Look for features such as breathable mesh sides, a soft mattress, and a sturdy frame.
  • Familiarize your baby with the travel bassinet: Introduce your baby to the travel bassinet before your trip by letting them spend some time in it at home. This will help them associate the bassinet with sleep and comfort, making it easier for them to settle down in unfamiliar surroundings.
  • Stick to your baby's bedtime routine: As much as possible, try to maintain your baby's regular bedtime routine while traveling. This could include activities like bath time, reading a book, or singing a lullaby. Following a consistent routine will signal to your baby that it's time to sleep, regardless of the unfamiliar environment.
  • Bring familiar sleep aids: To create a sense of familiarity and comfort, pack your baby's favorite blanket, stuffed animal, or pacifier. These familiar sleep aids can help soothe them and promote better sleep in a new setting.
  • Create a sleep-friendly environment: When setting up the travel bassinet, ensure that the surrounding environment is conducive to sleep. Minimize noise and light by using blackout curtains, a white noise machine, or a baby sleep app. Consider using a travel crib sheet to provide a familiar scent and texture.
  • Maintain a consistent sleep schedule: Traveling can disrupt your baby's usual sleep schedule, but try to maintain a consistent sleep routine as much as possible. Stick to regular nap times and bedtime, and avoid letting your baby become overtired or overstimulated.
  • Adjust your baby's clothing and sleep attire: Pay attention to the temperature and climate of your travel destination, and dress your baby accordingly. Ensure that they are neither too hot nor too cold in their sleep attire. Layering clothing can be helpful in case the temperature fluctuates during the night.
  • Comfort your baby when needed: If your baby wakes up or becomes restless during the night, provide comfort by patting their back, offering a gentle touch, or speaking softly to them. Avoid picking them up unless necessary, as this may further disrupt their sleep pattern.
  • Be patient and flexible: Remember that traveling can be overwhelming for both you and your baby. Be patient and try to go with the flow. It's normal for your baby's sleep to be slightly disrupted during this time, so try not to stress too much about it. With time, they will adjust to the new environment and settle into a better sleep routine.

By following these tips, you can help your baby sleep well in a travel bassinet and make your travel experience less stressful. Remember that every baby is different, so it may take a bit of trial and error to figure out what works best for your little one. However, with consistency and patience, you can ensure your baby gets the rest they need while on the go.

How To Choose a Bassinet for Your Baby

Safety is the number one priority when deciding which bassinet is the right one for your family.

When you have a newborn, you naturally want to keep your baby close, especially at night. That's where a bassinet for your baby comes in. Not only does it help for those middle-of-the-night feedings, but it also helps you with peace of mind when it comes to safety.

Safe sleep experts recommend babies sleep in the same room with their parents—but not in the same bed—for at least 6 months, and ideally, for the first year of life.

Buying a bassinet will help you keep a close eye on your baby, and allow your baby to sleep in your room without having to make space for a full-size crib. If you're shopping for a bassinet , these tips can help you find a safe one for your baby.

Check Bassinet Safety Standards

Be sure your bassinet meets current safety standards. Federal bassinet safety standards went into effect in April 2014. These standards ensure the bassinet is stable and durable. They also include requirements for mattresses and other soft parts of the bassinet to reduce the risk of suffocation or entrapment.

All bassinets manufactured after this date and sold in the U.S. must meet these standards. Older bassinets were only subject to voluntary safety standards.

If you're buying something used, make sure you do an extra check for any potential safety problems. Look for labels that say JPMA or ASTM. Members of these groups participated in voluntary safety standards even before the newer mandatory federal standards were enacted.

Evaluate a bassinet the same way you would a crib. Does it have decorative posts sticking up from the sides that could catch on a baby's clothing? If there are side slats, can you fit a soda can between them? If so, they're too far apart to be safe. Are there decorative cutouts in the headboard or footboard that could entrap a baby? If you notice any safety concerns like these, you might want to consider a different bassinet.

Buying or Borrowing a Used Bassinet

A used bassinet may be a good way to save money, but use extra caution to be sure it is safe. First, check for recalls. Then, do the same safety check as you would on a new bassinet.

Make sure to ask how it was stored. Bedding and wood pieces need to be stored in a cool, dry place so they don't become moldy or warped.

You also want to make sure all of the original parts are there. If the bassinet has been modified in any way, don't buy it. Make sure it's sturdy and doesn't have any gaps or soft spaces that could entrap your baby.

Pay close attention to the mattress and supports, making sure the mattress doesn't sag in the middle.

What Are the Weight and Age Limits for Bassinets?

If you plan to use the bassinet for a certain length of time, make sure to take a close look at the weight and age limits of the product before you buy it.

Most bassinets have a weight limit of 15 to 20 pounds. Some may be able to hold a heavier baby—but weight is not the only way babies outgrow their bassinets. They may be too long/tall, or they may be developmentally too mature. Some manufacturers may add a maximum age or age range, which is typically 4 to 6 months.

Keep a close eye on your baby so you can tell if you need to stop using the bassinet before the stated limits. For example, if the manufacturer says you can use the bassinet until 4 months and 20 pounds, but your baby is rolling over before reaching those limits, you should stop using it.

Remember, babies learn new skills at lightning pace. If your baby is working toward rolling or sitting, transition to a crib or play yard to avoid falls. This is important because falls are the leading cause of bassinet-related injuries reported to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

Are Rocking Bassinets Good for Babies?

A rocking bassinet might be a nice idea, but it introduces safety hazards that stationary bassinets may not have. Once the baby learns to move around a little or roll, the weight shifting around in a rocking bassinet could allow enough tilt that your baby could become trapped against one side.

If your baby's face is pressed against the side, this could pose a suffocation hazard. Note that since babies often gain their rolling-over skills quickly, you may not even realize that your baby is at risk.

If you choose a bassinet with a rocking feature, make sure it has a lock so that the bassinet can be used in a stationary mode as your child starts rolling.

Is a Bassinet Portable?

Bassinets are praised for their portability. The smaller size and weight of a bassinet make it easy to move around the house so your baby can always be near you. You might want to consider a bassinet with a sturdy set of wheels to make moving it even easier. Wheels with locks will prevent curious siblings from moving the baby around.

It's also nice if your bassinet can be folded or disassembled quickly for storage or travel. If it folds, test the latching mechanism before you buy it. Note how easy it is to tell when the bassinet is locked safely in place. Check the folding legs and the places where the bassinet itself attaches to the legs for solid latches.

If you plan to disassemble the bassinet, check if it is easy to tell how it fits back together. If not, skip it. A difficult-to-assemble bassinet will be frustrating for you. Even more so, an improperly assembled bassinet is dangerous for your baby.

What Should Parents Look For In Bassinet Mattresses?

It's essential the bassinet's mattress is well-supported. Mattress supports should be strong enough to hold your baby without bending or flexing. The entire mattress should be held up by the supports. Press along the mattress edges and in the middle to see if any spot dips easily. The hammock effect may be comfortable for some adults but it's dangerous for babies who can't move themselves.

Mattress Firmness

For an adult, it may seem like manufacturers want your baby to sleep on a rock. However, a firm sleep surface is a must for babies to reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) . The bassinet mattress should also not be heavily padded because you don't want your baby's face to be able to sink into it.

Check the Mattress Fit

Just like a crib mattress , the bassinet mattress should fit very snugly inside the bassinet. There shouldn't be any gaps between the edge of the mattress and the sides of the bassinet. Frills and soft decor on the outside are fine, but make sure none of the frills or fluff extend into your baby's sleep space.

What Kind of Bedding Should the Bassinet Have?

Consider whether any bedding comes with your bassinet, if any. All your baby really needs is a simple fitted sheet, and it should fit the bassinet mattress perfectly.

Just like in the crib, the extras that come in bedding sets are not necessary. Don't add bumper pads , blankets, quilts, or pillows to the bassinet. A safe sleep space for your baby is pretty much bare. Nearly all bassinet-related deaths are related to soft bedding added into the sleep space.

While cribs have standard sizes, bassinets do not, so it may be hard to find sheets that are just right for your bassinet. You'll probably want to have at least one extra fitted sheet for the inevitable nighttime diaper explosion.

It's best if those sheets are easily removed for washing. Any fabric inside the baby's sleep space is at risk of getting messy, so be sure the whole thing can be cleaned somehow.

If the bassinet mattress doesn't come with a waterproof cover, check if one is available for it. If not, consider whether can you throw the whole mattress in your washer.

Bassinet Styles

Once you've considered the safety of the bassinet, you can consider its look. Bassinets are available in many different styles, from sleek and modern to classic and frilly. You can find bassinets that have baby-oriented themes, such as bears or lambs, or you might choose one with dark, glossy wood and fabrics that tie into your home's grown-up decor.
