Today I’m sharing 10 stylish baby bassinets that merge modern and luxurious design with functionality and safety. List updated January 2022.
I’m having a little bit of a Mum moment over here, guys, because – just like that – the newborn days are behind us. In the back of my mind, I obviously knew it – Emmett’s been rattling off words for months and is walking around the house like he pays the mortgage. But it wasn’t until I packed up our bassinet and watched it roll down the street in the back of my girlfriend’s SUV that it really hit home.
I also realised, based on the number of DMs I received this week when I posted a photo of our bassinet on Instagram stories, that I hadn’t shared it here on the blog before. Which makes sense: during those first couple months with a newborn, everything is foggy. Taking photos of furniture? Yah, definitely not a priority!
But it’s worth sharing because, for the record, I absolutely ADORED our Monte bassinet. It was a bit of a splurge – but damn was it cute. And functional. And after two kids, it still looked as good as the day we bought it back in 2016.
Feeling nostalgic, I browsed the web to check out all the latest models of bassinets. Here are my favourites!
10 Most Stylish Baby Bassinets of 2020 That Baby (and Mama!) Will Love
I’m going to go ahead and call this bunch the trendiest baby cradles of 2020:
1. Monte Rockwell Bassinet
Our bassinet checks the box in the aesthetically-pleasing department… but I’m a fan of its functionality as much as its good looks. It’s the perfect bedside height for quick nighttime feeds. Plus, it’s easy to keep clean and the basket cover is machine washable.
The design has changed slightly over the last four years. It’s now available in multiple bassinet and frame colours –and I’m absolutely loving the combination of rose gold copper and walnut.
Shop for it online at Crate & Barrel, 2Modern and Chapters Indigo.
2. Bliss Sova Bassinet
I was impressed with both the sleek, modern design of the Bliss Sova Bassinet and its great price point of only $149.99.
It’s available at Walmart. Always skeptical that things might be too good to be true, I delved deeper and checked out the reviews on buybuyBABY, which proved to be very positive!
3. Mid Century Bassinet
Keep your newborn nearby in this beautifully constructed bassinet made from solid eucalyptus wood. Featuring rounded spindles and angled legs, the frame is a nod to Mid-Century modern style.
Available at Pottery Barn Kids and West Elm.
4. Everett Rocking Bassinet
I was immediately drawn to the elegant, arched chrome base and upholstered grey linen basket of the Everett Rocking Bassinet.
And – hold the phone – at only $197 CAD, it’s a really reasonable price!
Shop for it online at Wayfair.
5. Rattan Bassinet
Hello, lover!
This statement-making Rattan Bassinet is what bohemian-inspired nursery dreams are made of. I could also imagine using this trendy basket for stuffed animal or toy storage after baby has transitioned to a crib!
Shop for it online at Crate & Barrel.
6. Rose Gold Nurseryworks Aura Metal Bassinet
Is it just me, or is this the ultimate baby girl bassinet? Designed as a modern interpretation of woven rattan furniture, it’s a rose gold beauty.
Apparently, others agree, as I’ve noticed it’s on back-order on quite a few sites – but I found it at 2Modern and The Tot.
7. SNOO Smart Sleeper Bassinet
I’ve heard amazing things about the SNOO Smart Sleeper, a revolutionary bassinet that can detect your baby’s cries and automatically responds by rocking them back to sleep.
At $1,300 USD, it boasts a higher price tag. But damn, is it ever intuitive – and stylish, too!
Shop for it at Chapters Indigo, Walmart, Target, Amazon and Pottery Barn Kids.
8. Bristol Bassinet
This traditional white bassinet is classically beautiful and carefully constructed with baby’s safety in mind.
Shop for it online at Pottery Barn Kids.
9. Davinci Archie Bassinet
Pretty AND portable: the perfect combo. Available at Walmart, Wayfair and Amazon in multiple colours.
10. Chic Black Scandinavian Bassinet
Crate and Barrel does it again. How stunning is this bassinet’s clean-lined, Scandinavian design?
11. Gaetan Rocking Bassinet
Available in grey and sand, this bassinet has a quilted design and sheer panels on either side to ensure baby sleeps safely – and in style!
Shop for it online at Wayfair.
12. Aristot
Ready for the most boujie bassinet you’ll ever lay your eyes on? Meet the Aristot – a bassinet I 1000% would’ve wanted had it been around back in 2016 – but that I also 1000% could not have afforded, lol!
It’s essentially the Rolls-Royce of bassinets – but damn, is it dreamy!
Plus, the bassinet is available in four distinctly different looks – velvet dusty rose, velvet dusty blue, leather cognac and Carrara marble – with three different base options. And, once baby has outgrown the bassinet, the base can be reconfigured to an ottoman or table.
Shop for it online at Wayfair and Harrods.
Now THAT’S a stunning selection of bassinets, #amirite ?! I hope you enjoyed this roundup of modern and stylish baby bassinets for chic AF Mamas. If you’re chic AF yourself, I highly encourage you to share your favourites to Pinterest!
