Safer Sleep

To reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) the safest place for a baby to sleep is in their own clear, flat, separate sleep space, such as a cot or Moses basket. The Lullaby Trust has a guide Safer-sleep-for-babies-a-guide-for-parents-web.pdf (lullabytrust.org.uk)

Sleeping on a sofa with your baby increases the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) by up to 50 times. Visit our Keeping Babies Safe webpage for more information.
