The launch of the new Mockingbird bassinet and bassinet stand at the value level supplied – $230 for both the stand and the bassinet – does simply that.
Safe sleep at residence and on the go
To perceive the worth of this product, it’s price brushing up on toddler protected sleep. In a nutshell, strollers that don’t include a bassinet aren’t rated for protected in a single day sleep, and never all bassinets are protected for in a single day sleep. Sure, a bit nap if you are cruising round your ‘hood is fine, but in terms of getting a big ol’ chunk of unsupervised sleep, they aren’t ultimate.

One bassinet, two jobs
The bassinet simply attaches to the stroller body for outings, and when paired with the bassinet stand, it may be used bedside for protected in a single day sleep inside an arms-reach of a dad or mum.
This multifunctionality is efficacious each at residence and when touring because it reduces the variety of gadgets parents have to purchase, make room for, and ultimately retailer.
