Cariboo of New Zealand is world renown for offering naturally handcrafted nursery furniture and accessories that are simple, elegant, and ecologically responsible. Made from renewable and sustainable Radiata wood harvested by choice timber mills across New Zealand, Cariboo bassinets, changing tables, and accessories are safe and durable, yet provide an attractive aesthetic appeal that will enhance any home's style.
Cariboo offers three bassinet models. The Cariboo Classic Bassinet is a chic, timeless design that many parents choose to complement their own bedroom furniture. The Classic Bassinet weighs 16 pounds and measures 31.5" H x 27.5" D x 33.5" L. After your baby outgrows the Cariboo Classic Bassinet, the piece has long-term functionality as a stylish toy chest. The Cariboo Folding Bassinet is designed with modern, space-conscious parents in mind. Stylish and practical at the same time, this bassinet folds flat for easy storage or travel. As the lightest Cariboo bassinet, the Folding Bassinet weighs a mere 14 pounds and its dimensions are 36" H x 27.5" D x 34" L. For babies who prefer motion to lull them to sweet dreams, the Cariboo Gentle Motions Bassinet features an innovative design in which the bassinet hangs from a folding stand, allowing the baby's own movement to create a soft rocking sensation. The design permits total 360 degree movement, not just backward or forward, so the motion is calming rather than jarring. The Cariboo Gentle Motions Bassinet's adjustable straps allow the mattress to be raised on one side, so babies with acid reflux or colic can sleep with their heads elevated-a practice recommended by many pediatricians. Plus, the Gentle Motions Bassinet can be removed from the folding stand and attached to the rails of a crib for an easier transition into the nursery environment. The Cariboo Gentle Motions Bassinet weighs 15 pounds and shares the same dimensions as the Folding Bassinet.
All Cariboo bassinets come complete with a bassinet bag, custom fitted white sheet, and custom mattress pad. The bassinet fabric zips off and is machine washable for easy care and cleaning, while the waterproof mattress pad simply wipes clean. In keeping with the Cariboo mantra, the bassinets are eco-friendly and feature lead-free stain and non-toxic, PBDE-free materials. Cariboo bassinets are weight rated for infants up to 22 pounds or until the child is pushing up or rolling over.
Cariboo also offers a number of smart accessories for its bassinet series. For families with little room to spare, the Cariboo Bassinet Changer effortlessly attaches to the top rails of any Cariboo bassinet to convert it into a safe, sturdy changing table. The hammock-style fabric gently cradles your child, and the fabric changing surface and liner are removable and machine washable for easy clean-up. The optional Cariboo Bassinet Veil Arm with Veil lends a traditional elegance to your Cariboo bassinet and shields baby from light or distractions while she drifts off to sleep. Although all Cariboo bassinets come with a fitted white sheet, experienced parents know that extra sheets are a must. Cariboo Bassinet Sheets are perfectly tailored to fit Cariboo bassinets and are available in White, Yellow, Pink, and Blue.
In addition to bassinets, Cariboo offers two changing tables to complete your nursery furnishings. The Cariboo Classic Changing Table coordinates with the Cariboo Classic Bassinet and offers a secure changing surface with an open shelf to provide ample room to store diapers, wipes, or other baby changing needs. Plus, once your baby is no longer in diapers, the table has long term use as a shelf for books or toys. The Cariboo Classic Changing Table weighs 24 pounds and measures 35" H x 32" D x 33" L. The table comes with a changing pad and one fitted white changing pad cover. For parents who want to maximize space, the Cariboo Folding Changing Table is a lightweight changer that folds flat for easy storage or travel. Weighing only 13 pounds, this efficient design is perfect for small homes or as a second changing table for multi-level living. The zip-off fabric and changing surface liner are machine washable for easy cleaning. The Folding Changing Table features an open shelf and convenient storage pockets, providing plenty of room for diapers, wipes, and other necessities. The Cariboo Folding Changing Table measures 36" H x 27.5" D x 33.5" L and, like the Classic Changing Table, is rated to support up to 45 pounds. Both tables come with their own changing surface, so there's no need to purchase a separate pad and cover.
