When putting babies to sleep, make sure they sleep safely by following these tips every night and every nap:
🏠 Share your room with your baby, but not your bed. Most sleep-related deaths occur when babies sleep with an adult or another child, or in an adult bed, or on a sofa.
👶 The safest position for a baby to sleep is on their back. Babies are not more likely to choke while laying on their backs.
😴 Your baby’s sleeping place should be clean and clear. No blankets, pillows, stuffed animals, Boppy, or crib bumpers. Just a tight-fitting sheet on a firm mattress.
🚫 Keep smoke away from your baby– no ci******es, ma*****na, or va**ng in your home. Smoke of any kind can cause SIDS and breathing problems in babies.
