- A is for Alone. Make sure your baby never sleeps with you, another adult, child, or pet.
- B is for Back. Until they confidently roll over, babies should sleep on their backs every time. Don’t worry–this position won’t increase the risk of choking.
- C is for Crib. Babies should sleep in a safe crib, bassinet, or play yard–never an adult bed, chair or couch. The crib or bassinet should contain only a firm, well-fitting mattress and a tight fitted sheet and should be free of anything that could block their nose and mouth or get wrapped around their neck, including:
- Blankets, pillows and quilts
- Toys and stuffed animals
- Bumpers, whether padded, mesh or breathable
- Décor and accessories with cords or strings, such as hanging mobiles, name banners and baby monitors
