Bassinets and Sleepers

Choose a standalone bassinet for a compact, portable sleep space that moves between rooms during the day. Choose a bedside sleeper if you want your newborn within arm's reach at night without fully getting up for feeds. Current safe sleep guidelines recommend room-sharing for the first 6 to 12 months. A bedside sleeper makes that practical without disturbing a recovering or sleep-deprived partner any more than necessary. Adjustable height aligns the sleeper with your bed frame and a drop-side panel gives access from a lying position. Choose a rocking bassinet if your baby is difficult to settle in a still space. Gentle glide motion soothes between feeds without picking up.

All bassinets and sleepers in our collection suit newborns from birth through to around 6 months, or until your baby can push up on hands and knees. The short use window is real. The sleep it delivers in those first months earns its place in the nursery. Check the weight limit on each product page before ordering. Once your baby reaches the bassinet maximum, a baby cot is the next step.

Always follow current safe sleep guidelines from your health provider. Place your baby on their back on a firm, flat surface with no loose bedding, pillows or positioners. Stop using a bassinet once your baby can push up on hands and knees or reaches the weight limit listed on the product page. For specific safe sleep advice, consult a paediatric health professional or your maternal health nurse.

• Safe sleep construction: Breathable mesh sides, a firm flat mattress and a stable non-tipping base are the minimum requirements for safe newborn sleep. Confirm these features on each listing. For personalised safe sleep advice, consult a paediatric health professional or maternal health nurse.
• Weight and age limit: Most bassinets suit newborns from birth to around 6 months or until your baby can push up on hands and knees. Check the weight limit on each listing. Stop using the bassinet when your baby reaches either limit first. Transition to a baby cot at that point.
• Portability and weight: A lightweight bassinet moves between rooms easily. A heavier bedside sleeper typically stays in one position beside the bed. If you want a bassinet for both day sleeps in the living room and night sleeps in the bedroom, confirm the unit weight and whether it folds flat.
• Bedside sleeper compatibility: If choosing a bedside sleeper, measure your bed height before ordering. Most sleepers adjust across a range of heights. Check the minimum and maximum height settings on each product page and confirm they match your bed frame.
• Mattress firmness: Always use a bassinet-specific mattress that fits snugly with no gaps at the sides. A soft mattress or an ill-fitting one creates suffocation risk. Most bassinets include a mattress. Check each product page to confirm whether a mattress comes with the bassinet or requires a separate purchase.
• Rocking and motion settings: Some rocking bassinets require batteries or a power source. Check what is required on each listing. Models with adjustable speed settings give more settling control as your baby develops.
• Reflux and incline: If your baby has diagnosed reflux, confirm the incline angle on the product page and discuss suitability with your health professional before purchasing.
• Delivery and assembly: Orders leave our Smithfield, NSW warehouse on business days with full tracking. Most metro orders arrive within 3 to 7 business days. Some models require light assembly. Confirm assembly details on each listing.
