Halo is a popular pick for a bassinet, is it the best option for you?
Here’s a few pro’s and con’s so you can make a decision that makes sense to you!
PROS:
💫Contains a 360-degree swivel and lowering side panel that allows easy access for babies in
and out of the bassinet, making it particularly useful for postpartum
💫A heavy and sturdy base that will ensure the baby has a secure and safe place to rest
💫Many models include soothing features like vibrations, sounds, and lights that may help the
baby to fall asleep faster
CONS:
💫Since the base of the bassinet is heavy, it can be difficult to move around once assembled
💫Some report the slant in the bassinet as a potential hazard, since the incline can cause the
baby to roll into a dangerous position
💫The soothing features like sounds, lights, and vibrations, require batteries that need to be
replaced frequently
No matter what bassinet you choose, having extra hands during the first few weeks at home is
immensely helpful. Contact us for more info on our postpartum doulas!
