How to Choose a Moses Basket

A few practical checks will help you pick the basket that fits your home and your newborn.

  1. Age suitability: Choose a basket for newborns and early infancy, and stop use when your baby can sit up or roll on their own.
  2. Measure the space: Check the basket dimensions against where you plan to keep it, allowing for easy access during nighttime feedings.
  3. What to add: This basket includes a custom mattress and pom-poms; add only a fitted sheet and lightweight blanket when supervised.
  4. Portability needs: If you plan to move the basket often, look for sturdy, well attached handles and a lightweight weave.
  5. Care and longevity: Expect natural variations in color and shape, and plan for gentle reshaping and spot cleaning rather than machine washing.
Frequently Asked Questions
What age is this basket appropriate for?

Suitable for newborns and infants who cannot sit up or roll over unaided. Stop using once your baby can sit, push up, or roll independently.

How do I reshape the basket after shipping?

Gently stuff the basket with towels or blankets and let it rest flat for 24 to 72 hours to help the weave settle back into shape.

Are the materials safe for newborns?

Yes, the basket is handwoven from natural elephant grass and is free from chemicals and fire retardants, per product description. Inspect handles and stitching regularly for wear.

Can I wash the mattress and pom-poms?

Follow the care label on the mattress. In general, spot clean soft bedding and pom-poms and allow them to air dry. Do not submerge the woven basket in water.

We ship from a US warehouse, and we offer free US shipping on orders over $100. Standard 30-day returns apply, and human customer support is available. Please review the return policy before buying, as some handcrafted items may be non-returnable.
