• Placing babies on their backs is the number one way to reduce the risk of SIDS.
   
• Place your baby in a safety-approved crib with a firm mattress and well-fitting sheets.
   
• Cribs should be free from toys, soft bedding, blankets and pillows.
   
• The safest place for your baby to sleep is in the room with you, but not in your bed.
   
• Think about using a clean, dry pacifier when placing your baby down to sleep.
   
• Consider using a wearable blanket or other sleeper instead of a blanket • to avoid the risk of overheating. Keep the room at a temperature that is comfortable for a lightly clothed adult.
   
• Talk about safe sleep practices with everyone who cares for your baby.

Remember the ABC's of Safe Sleep. Alone, on the Back and in a Crib.
