Sefton's Health Visiting Service Offers Local Support for Safer Sleep Week

This week is Safer Sleep Week, the Lullaby Trust’s national awareness campaign for families with young children, which raises awareness of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and provides advice to reduce the risk of it occurring.

Throughout the week the Lullaby Trust will focus on:

• Exploring baby sleep patterns - How long can babies sleep for their age?
  You can download their baby sleep patterns poster here.

• Busting baby sleep myths - Are any myths backed by evidence and what about products that promise to help your baby sleep for longer?
