{Cons

• Only used for the first three months or so: an expensive purchase if you buy new

Safety tip: Check when buying a Moses basket that its handles are sturdy and meet in the middle.

• Very portable: easy to move from room to room

• Your baby may feel more secure in a Moses basket than a cot
} Put the handles together to carry the basket and keep one hand below the basket to support your baby. If that is a concern for you, simply make sure to move it only after taking your baby out.
