Here's a top tip that could save a young baby's life:

Sleeping with your baby in the same room for at least the first 6 months of their life can help reduce the chance of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) by up to 50%. That's sleeping in the same room, but not the same bed, for both daytime naps and night time sleeps.

* Research from the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Always follow safe sleep guidelines.
