Palm vs Wicker vs Pod Moses Baskets – What's the Difference?
All three styles are safe and suitable for newborns – the choice comes down to aesthetics, weight, and feel:
-
Palm Moses baskets – Woven from natural palm leaves, giving a finer, more tightly woven texture than wicker. Typically lighter than wicker baskets, making them very easy to carry between rooms. The natural palm weave has a warm, organic look that suits both modern and traditional nurseries.
-
Wicker Moses baskets – Woven from thicker wicker or rattan, giving a chunkier, more rustic aesthetic. Slightly heavier than palm but extremely durable. A classic, heirloom-quality choice.
-
Pod Moses baskets – Contemporary oval or pod-shaped design with a softer, more enclosed feel. The curved sides can help newborns feel more secure. Available in a wider range of fabric colours and patterns.
-
Our verdict – If you want the lightest natural basket with a fine, elegant weave, palm is the ideal choice. All three are equally safe when used with a firm, flat, well-fitting mattress.
How to Use a Palm Moses Basket Safely
-
Always use a firm, flat mattress – The mattress must fit snugly with no gaps at the sides. This is a key Lullaby Trust safe sleep requirement.
-
No loose bedding – Use lightweight, breathable fitted sheets only. Avoid pillows, duvets, or loose blankets inside the basket.
-
Keep baby in the same room – The Lullaby Trust recommends babies sleep in the same room as their parents for the first 6 months. The portable handles on a palm basket make this easy.
-
Age and weight limit – Most palm Moses baskets are suitable from birth to approximately 3–4 months, or until your baby can roll or push up on their hands.
