Like any new parent, you want to keep your baby safe, and that includes whilst they sleep.
What is the safest sleeping position for your baby to sleep? The safest sleeping position for a baby is on their back, so always place the baby on their back to sleep at night and for all daytime naps (unless a medical professional has advised you of a medical reason not to do so). What space should your baby sleep in? Always place the baby in a clear, flat sleep space. Ideally, a firm, fl at, wa terproof mattress with no raised or cushioned area is recommended.
Other Important Advice
• Place baby in the ‘Feet-to-foot’ position (feet at the foot of the cot) with blankets tucked under their arms. Alternatively, place them in a correct-sized sleeping bag. • Ensure the baby is at the correct temperature for the time of year; a temperature display in the room is always recommended.
• Never put baby to sleep on a pillow, cushion, beanbag or waterbed.
• Never sleep with the baby on a sofa or armchair. This is one of the most high-risk situations.
• Keep your home a smoke free space.
