One of the four side walls of the inner box is connected to the rest of the inner box only along its lower horizontal edge surface, with the rest of this side wall being free, in order to provide a pivotal safety wall. The safety wall is pivoted to a downward position when the inner box is used as a bassinet, with an infant placed therein, whereby the inner box is prevent from being fully inserted into the outer main box or canopy-housing, in order to prevent accidental suffocation. Handles are provided for aiding in the carrying of the assembly. A first handle is provided on a side wall surface of the inner box which cooperates with a cutout or opening in the corresponding side wall of the outer box. This first handle is removably secured to the inner box by a pair of slots or grooves formed in the side wall surface thereof, with the ends of the handles being inserted therein. Other handles are also provided on the inner box, each serving the dual function of carrying the inner box alone when the inner box is serving as a bassinet proper, for carrying the infant therein, and, also, for retaining the inner box in its partially drawn out or extended position with respect to the outer box, also when serving as a bassinet with a partial covering thereof formed by the outer box.
