Going on holiday with your baby this summer?
When out of the normal routine, and staying in a different environment, remember to think in advance about safe sleeping arrangements for your baby.

Most tragic SIDS involve unsafe co-sleeping environments with infants, often when parents had consumed alcohol.
Always think, plan and share, who’s in charge of your child when alcohol is being consumed.

But when it comes to safer sleep it can be as simple as ABC.
ALWAYS on their BACK in a CLEAR cot or sleep space.
