Bringing your baby home is such a fun and exciting time! However, it is important to make sure that you are bringing your baby home to a safe environment. One of the most important areas in your home to make sure is safe for your child is his or her crib. I added a link below to a video that I created that will help you to know what to do and what not to do in order to make sure your child sleeps safely.
