Hi there, I have recently seen the "Cacoon" Bassinets on sale, which have a covering that meets in the middle of the Bassinet. I was just wondering if this qualifies and aligns with the safe sleeping guidelines. https://www.bubsngrubs.com.au/sunbury-cocoon-bassinet.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIvvTN_tGK7AIVTsEWBR0_sgr3EAQYAyABEgJ_SvD_BwE Thanks, Amanda

There are no mandatory standards for bassinets in Australia.
Product Safety Australia does have some recommendations (Buying Tips) for bassinets which include:

Ensure the sides of the bassinette are at least 300 mm higher than the top of the mattress base.
Ensure it has a wide stable base and a sturdy bottom so that it won’t tip over.
Ensure the mattress fits well and is firm, smooth and no more than 75 mm thick.
If the product has folding legs, make sure it cannot accidentally fold during use.

Are there any potential hazards such as entrapment, strangulation, suffocation or fall risks associated with using this product?
As with all bassinets, once baby is attempting to roll, they need to be moved to a cot.

If a parent is thinking about using products where there are no AS/NZS Standards, it is important to ascertain not only whether the product may be effective but also is it safe to use under all circumstances and where the baby may be unsupervised

It is important for parents when they are thinking of buying a product for their baby to be able to make the best informed decision based on evidence of product safety. This is crucial for preventing SUDI or other fatal sleeping accidents.

It is often assumed that all nursery products sold in retail stores must be safe, however many products have never been formally tested so it can be difficult to tell what is safe for your child.

Red Nose recommends that the safest place to sleep baby is in a cot (with mandatory AS/NZS standards) in the parents’ room.
