 BABY SAFETY TIPS


Safe Bedding Practices For Infants


Place baby on his/her back on a firm tight−fitting mattress in a crib that meets current safety standards.

Remove pillows, quilts, comforters, sheepskins, pillow−like stuffed toys, and other soft products from the crib. 

Consider using a sleeper or other sleep clothing as an alternative to blankets, with no other covering. 

If using a blanket, put baby with feet at the foot of the crib. Tuck a thin blanket around the crib mattress, reaching only as far as the baby's chest. 

Make sure your baby's head remains uncovered during sleep. Do not place baby on a waterbed, sofa, soft mattress, pillow, or other soft surface to sleep.
