Safe to Sleep® Campaign Materials Key Messages for Safe Infant Sleep

Always place baby on his or her back to sleep, for naps and at night. Use a firm surface with fitted sheet, such as a safety- approved crib*, bassinet, or yard, with no soft bedding or toys. Room share-keeping baby's sleep area separate from yours but in the same room where you sleep-do not bed share.
