Back to sleep
Put your baby on their back for every sleep. For the first six months, their own cot in your room is the recommended place.
Keep the cot clear
Use a firm, flat mattress. Keep pillows, toys and loose bedding out of the sleep space. Do not fall asleep with your baby on a sofa or chair.
Your next little step
Choose one idea that suits your family and try it at your own pace. Every family has different needs.
