Your baby’s crib should have:

•Railings that are not more than 2⅜ inches apart. (You should not be able to fit a soda can through them.)
•A firm mattress that fits snugly in the frame.
•A fitted sheet that is tight around the mattress.
•No quilts, comforters, duvets, heavy blankets, stuffed animals, bumper pads, sheepskins, etc. These items can obstruct the baby’s breathing. A Halo SleepSack is recommended

With any crib, bassinet or play yard, following a few simple rules will keep babies sleeping safely and will give parents a better night's sleep:

•To prevent suffocation, never place pillows or thick quilts in a baby's sleep environment. Also, make sure there are no gaps larger than two fingers between the sides of the crib and the mattress.
•Proper assembly of cribs is paramount - Follow the instructions provided and make sure that every part is installed correctly. If you are not sure, call the manufacturer for assistance.
•Do not use cribs older than 10 years or broken or modified cribs. Infants can strangle to death if their bodies pass through gaps between loose components or broken slats while their heads remain entrapped.
•Set up play yards properly according to manufacturers' directions. Only use the mattress pad provided with the play yard; do not add extra padding.
•Never place a crib near a window with blind, curtain cords or baby monitor cords; babies can strangle on cords
