Listen "Safe Sleep Isn't Scary - Making the Guidelines Work for Real Families"
Episode Synopsis
Safe sleep can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be scary. In this episode of Secrets of a Night Nanny, we break down what the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends for infant safe sleep (read the guidelines here) and why they matter. We also look at the numbers—according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), about 3,500 infants in the U.S. die each year from sleep-related causes, including SIDS and accidental suffocation (learn more here).We’ll talk about why babies resist back sleeping, how families can help them adjust, and practical, judgment-free ways to set up a safe sleep space that works in real life. Our goal? To empower you with clear information and reassuring tips so safe sleep feels realistic—not terrifying.You bring the monitor—we’ll bring the stories.The Ollie Swaddle — https://theollieworld.com/products/the-ollie-swaddleLove to Dream Swaddle Up Original — https://lovetodream.com/products/swaddle-up-original-cotton-1-0-tog-grayThe Butterfly Swaddle — https://thebutterflyswaddle.com/products/butterfly-swaddle
