October is Safe Sleep Awareness Month. 💙
At A Mother’s Hope, safe sleep is something we take seriously every day because safe sleep saves babies.
Through Healthier Moms and Babies partnership with Cribs for Kids and their Every Birth Network, all A Mother’s Hope staff members have been trained and certified as Safe Sleep Ambassadors, along with several of our dedicated volunteers. This training equips our team with the knowledge and resources to educate and support the mothers and children in our care and help create safe sleep environments for their babies.
We follow the ABCs of Safe Sleep:
A — Alone: Baby sleeps alone, without pillows, blankets, toys, or other items.
B — Back: Always place baby on their back to sleep.
C — Crib: Baby sleeps in a safe, approved crib or sleep space.
Our residents are required to follow these safe sleep guidelines because creating a safe sleep environment is one of the most important ways we can protect the babies in our care.
Fun Fact: In 2025, 100% of our residents received safe sleep education!
This Safe Sleep Awareness Month, learn the ABCs, share them with someone caring for a baby, and help us spread the message: safe sleep saves babies. 💙
