What is Safe Sleep?
There are about 3,500 sleep-related deaths among U.S. babies each year, including sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), accidental suffocation, and deaths from unknown causes. Most sleep related deaths are preventable by following safe sleep practices recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Alone
Babies should always be on their own sleep surface. Do NOT bed share. An adult can roll over on the baby.
Back
Babies should be on their back for every sleep.
Crib
The crib should be empty. This means no bumper pads, pillows, blankets, stuffed animals, and toys.
