Bassinet
Infant Usage
A bassinet is specifically for infants, usually newborns up to about six months old.

Once the baby outgrows the bassinet, it's time to use a crib.
Temporary Bed
A bassinet is often used as a temporary first sleeping place for a baby, not a permanent one.

I set up a bassinet in our room for the first few months after our baby is born.
Portability
Bassinets are lightweight and often portable, which makes them easy to move around.

We have a portable bassinet so we can easily take it with us when visiting grandparents.
