Are the bassinets approved for overnight sleeping?Updated 5 months ago

Our Ultimate2 bassinets are not tested for overnight safe sleeping practices and we recommend you monitor your little one regularly while napping in their pram. There are currently no Safety Standards for bassinet-safe sleeping in the US. Some companies will state compliance with an international standard however we have been advised by industry experts that they would never approve a pram bassinet as a safe sleeping environment which is why we continue to encourage regular monitoring. Pram bassinets are much narrower than sleeping bassinets and even with mesh sides that are breathable, when a baby's nose presses up against the mesh it can block their nose causing suffocation risk (note: babies breathe almost exclusively through their noses until at least 4 months of age).
