From the 3rd to the 9th of June, it's Child Safety Week; Child Accident Prevent Trust’s annual event to make us more aware of everyday situations that are potentially dangerous for our children and how to mitigate the risks.

Babies love to sleep. As a parent, you’ll learn to love those times that they finally go down for a nap too. You can sleep yourself, get on with some jobs or just catch up with an episode of Working Moms on Netflix! And when they finally sleep through the night… honestly there’s no better feeling.

There’s nothing like a sleeping baby. That angelic face as they snooze AND a little time for you to relax and take five. You deserve it! So, you want to get their sleeping arrangements right, with somewhere that keeps them snug and safe.

Babies and toddlers need lots of sleep every single day, and more than they can get overnight. Which means napping, and plenty of it! Your little one will need to nap during the day to stay happy and healthy, and to grow and develop. And it even gives you a little peace and quiet or an opportunity to get a few jobs done.

Nine months might sound like a long time but with scans to get to, friends and family to tell your good news to and food cravings to satisfy, the time can fly by.

Many parents choose to co-sleep with their baby, whilst others have it thrust up them. Either way, co-sleeping can feel more secure and can have benefits, but there can be risks too. Here we look into the safety concerns around co-sleeping as well as how you can reduce any potential risks.

 Next-to-me cribs are a popular choice for parents as they allow your little one to sleep in their own bed and also give you the comfort of having them right next to you. But with so many warnings about sticking to safe sleeping habits, are next-to-me cribs that safe to use?

Moving your baby from sleeping in your room to their own bedroom is one of the most important steps in their development. Establishing good sleeping habits early in life – including sleeping independently from you – will set your little one up for better sleep throughout their childhood.

Moving your little one from a cot to their first bed is a big change for them and for you.
