A Moses basket is one option for your baby's first bed. It is a woven basket with handles and often a hood. It is usually lined with a padded cotton lining, and often a quilt. It is often used on a stand, which can be bought separately.

A Moses basket is portable and small enough to keep next to your bed, which can be convenient for night time feeds, however as Moses baskets tend to be quite small, in general they will only last for the first few months of your baby's life.

Additionally it is worth baring in mind that some babies do not like sleeping in a Moses basket.
