This is the moment an adorable baby boy slept peacefully in a basin as his house was swamped with heavy floods in the Philippines.

The infant named Nathanael drifted on the deluge, lulled to sleep by the flood's gentle waves in Hagonoy town, Bulacan province, on June 21.

His mum, Erika Santos-Martin, said: 'This was taken at the residence of my in-laws in Hagonoy, which is known for floods even when there is no typhoon.

'He was only one month old at the time. My husband and I were just having fun and placed him in a basin, just like baby Moses from the bible.'

Many under-developed nations, including the Philippines, struggle to cope with heavy rain due to under-investment infrastructure.
