It’s important to put cleanliness at the forefront for newborn babies. That’s why we recommend you washing their sheets at least twice a week, as they attract bacteria and will, in turn, impact their health. Give baby’s sheets a regular wash to remove accumulated dust, hair and dead skin cells. Moses baskets are a great choice for newborns and young babies. They’re also approved as a safe bed for babies by a range of expert bodies, including the NHS, the NCT and the Lullaby Trust. The Lullaby Trust recommends that babies stay in the same room as their parents for at least the first six months. So, a traditional Moses basket is a fail-safe option for newborns before they graduate to a cot bed.
