Description: This question-and-answer guide explains safe sleep practices that help reduce the risk of SIDS, including placing babies on their backs to sleep, using a firm sleep surface, and keeping soft items out of the sleep area. It also reminds parents, caregivers, child care providers, and babysitters that safe sleep practices should be followed for every nap and every bedtime. #SafeSleep #SIDSPrevention #InfantSafety #BabyCare #Babysitting #ChildCareProviders #InfantCare #BackToSleep #NewbornSafety #CaregiverTips #ChildCareSafety #ECE #InfantSleep #SleepSafety #BabyWellness
