With the bed as the very centre of this piece, choreographer Hélène Langevin explores four slices of life drawn from childhood where babies, children and adolescents transform their beds into a territory of multiple possibilities. Here the bed is much more than a piece of furniture; it is a symbolic and transitional object that allows for passage from one phase to another. From the first movements of awakening to the outbursts of adolescence, dance expresses contrasting worlds, a place where poetry encounters the energy and reality of dreams.

  • Safe Sleep for Your Baby
    SAFE SLEEP FOR YOUR BABY Reduce the Risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and Other Sleep-Related Causes of Infant Death This is what a safe sleep environment looks like. The infant’s sleep area has no bumpers, pillows, blankets, or toys and is in the same room where the parents sleep. 1 Each year in the United States, thousands of babies die suddenly and unexpectedly. Some of these deaths result from unknown causes, such as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), while others are from known causes, including other sleep-related causes of infant death. What is SIDS? SIDS is the sudden, unexpected death—that doesn’t have a known cause even after a full investigation—of a baby between 1 month and 1 year of age. About half of the sudden, unexpected infant deaths that occur in the United States each year are from SIDS. What are other sleep-related causes of infant death? Other sleep-related causes of infant death are those related to how or where a baby slept. These can include accidental: l Suffocation: when something, such as a pillow, or someone covers the baby’s face and nose, blocking the ability to breathe l Entrapment: when the baby gets trapped between two objects, such as a mattress and a wall, and can’t breathe l Strangulation: when something presses on or wraps around the baby’s neck, blocking baby’s airway Fast facts about SIDS l SIDS is the leading cause of death among babies 1 month to 1 year of age. l Most SIDS deaths happen when babies are between 1 month and 4 months of age.
