Baby Sleeps Safe Keeps Babies Sleeping Securely on Their Backs
Sleep Panel and Sleep Pouch work together to safeguard infants
WILMINGTON, Del. - Since 1992, the American Academy of Pediatrics has strongly recommended that infants be placed on their backs while sleeping which may help to safeguard them against Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). The innovative Baby Sleeps Safe in an infant safety product designed to keep babies sleeping securely on their backs.
Invented by a concerned mother whose 4-month-old son often rolled from his back to his belly while sleeping in his crib, Baby Sleeps Safe was truly designed with lifesaving functions in mind. Fearful her infant son would suffocate while lying on his stomach, she tried every SIDS safety product on the market only to find that nothing would suffice. Taking matters into her own hands, she developed the Baby Sleeps Safe prototype and immediately saw a change in her son’s sleeping habits as he slept soundly on his back throughout the night.
How It Works
Baby Sleeps Safe is a Sleep Panel and Sleep Pouch, made of 100 percent flame-resistant cotton, which work together to position babies on their backs and prevent them from rolling onto their stomachs while sleeping. The Sleep Panel is soft and pliable and is easily secure around a standard-size crib mattress fastened end-to-end with Velcro. The sleeveless and collarless Sleep Pouch allows free movement from side-to-side to support motor skill development and features a convenient zip-up bottom. The companion pieces attach together by joining the large Velcro patches at the center of the Sleep Panel and back of the Sleep Pouch forming a “T.”
“As a parent, you always want the very best for your child and will do anything to protect them,” said Baby Sleep Safe President Dr. Vicki Folds, one of the nation’s leading child development experts with 35 years of hands-on research and experience and several published child development books to her credit. “Baby Sleeps Safe provides parents with a product developed for daily use that will safeguard their sleeping child by securing them on their backs.”
How To Order
Baby Sleeps Safe fits infants up to 9 months. Both pieces, the Sleep Panel and Sleep Pouch, are machine washable and dryable.
Baby Sleeps Safe is available for order online at www.BabySleepsSafe.com or by calling (877) 922-1112. Baby Sleeps Safe is available in blue, pink, yellow and cream and retails for $29.99 plus shipping and handling.
Steps that may prevent SIDS
“It is a sad, unfortunate reality that SIDS is not something we can predict or entirely prevent. Baby Sleeps Safe should be at the top of every new parent’s wish list for safety products as it also provides added peace of mind for their precious and growing infant,” adds Dr. Folds.
Safety measures recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics include:
- Always place infants up to 12 months on their backs to sleep.
- Only use a firm mattress in a baby’s crib.
- Never use a pillow in a baby’s crib.
- Remove all objects from a baby’s crib including loose blankets and toys.
- Maintain a smoke-free environment - moms-to-be must not smoke during pregnancy and parents
- should not allow any cigarette smoke around their infant.
