The HALO BassiNest is a bedside bassinet built for the first few months of close-contact sleep, with a 360-degree swivel that brings your little one right next to the bed and a lowering bedside wall that makes night feeds and C-section recovery easier. Soothing sounds, gentle vibrations, and an adjustable height that fits most adult beds give you a safe sleep setup within arm's reach, while JPMA certification and independent testing to U.S. CPSC and Health Canada standards back the safety claims. This collection covers the BassiNest sleepers along with fitted bassinet sheets, mattress pads, and accessories so you can keep the sleep space clean and rotated through those round-the-clock weeks. Bambi Baby carries HALO alongside other respected nursery names like Nuna, Stokke, and Babyletto across our bassinets collection and broader nursery furniture range, with GREENGUARD-certified options available in our Greenguard Home selection. With three showrooms and a team that talks safe-sleep gear every day, we can help you compare a HALO BassiNest against a Nuna Demi Next or a fixed-side bassinet and pick what fits your room and routine.

What's new
What is the weight limit for the HALO BassiNest Swivel Sleeper?
The BassiNest Swivel Sleeper is rated for babies up to 20 lbs (9 kg). HALO recommends discontinuing use once your baby reaches 20 lbs, hits 5 months of age, or starts pushing up on hands and knees — whichever happens first.
What happens if my baby exceeds the weight or mobility limit?
Once a baby can push up on hands and knees, roll over, or sit unassisted, HALO advises moving them to a crib. The BassiNest's shallow, non-adjustable mattress depth isn't designed for a baby who can move around, so continuing past that point is a safety risk even if they're under 20 lbs.
Does the weight limit differ between BassiNest models (3.0, 4.0, Luxe, Connected, etc.)?
The core Swivel Sleeper line (3.0, 4.0, Luxe, Connected) shares the same 20 lb / 5-month guidance. Portable or free-standing variants (like the BassiNest Lite or Essential Sleeper) can have their own limits, so it's worth checking the specific product manual before assuming they match.
Is 20 lbs unusually low for a bassinet?
No — most bedside/standard bassinets cap out between 15–20 lbs due to safety standards for shallow-sided sleepers, so HALO's limit is in line with the category, not a downside specific to this product.
