If I place my baby at the foot of the cot without a Safe T Sleep Sleepwrap will this guarantee his/her safety?

In our experience working with many parents since 1992 the method of feet or foot is a ‘herd principle deterrent’ and will only prevent ‘some’ babies from creeping upwards. The writer/inventor/founder of Safe T Sleep (NZ) Ltd has met four mothers who lost their babies using this method and a fifth mother (a DR) whose baby nearly did. She contacted us as to where to buy a Safe T Sleep Sleepwrap and went straight out to purchase one in Canberra, Australia.

These babies logically used this position at the foot of the cot/crib to push off against the cot/crib bars and lever themselves to turn over and/or turn themselves sideways and or face down. The eldest fatality being a beautiful little baby girl of twelve and a half months old!

We would definitely recommend the use of a Safe T Sleep Sleepwrap product when positioning baby anywhere in the cot/crib but particularly if you are positioning baby at the lower end of the cot/crib to prevent this from happening.
