RE: SAFE T SLEEP
I have been asked to comment on the above product.
Whilst the Special Care Baby Unit does not use this device, I can see definite advantages for it, particularly with older babies out of the newborn period.
Advantages:
1 Prevent baby from rolling on to stomach – a major concern for cot death.
2 The product appears safe with no sharp edges or appendages that could be swallowed or inhaled.
3 The prevention of movement around the cot or bed minimises injury such as catching heads, arms or legs between bars. I would also prevent the throwing off of covers in the middles of the night so frequently experienced. This in turn promotes a sense of security and hopefully a better night’s sleep.
I would like to endorse this product and would recommend its use for the above reasons.
Yours faithfully

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
Mrs Miriam Rutherford has shown me her design and prototype called Safe T’ Sleep.
This article is an effective design for safety. There is no similar product nor any product addressing “child safety” during sleep currently available in the retail market.
We highly recommend this product as being of great value to parents who are taking home a Premature baby who has the tendency to feel more comfortable in a prone position.

Dear Miriam
Thank you for giving information about your new product the “Safe T Sleep” to the Child and Family Unit. We were impressed both with the considerable thought you have put into the product and its presentation. We are unaware that there is any similar product available to parents at present.
Certainly we can see many advantages and uses to such a product, particularly for active babies and toddlers but also for special needs children who may take longer to learn about safety aspects. Disrupted sleep and anxiety about children’s safety can cause havoc for parents of young children and such a product may help them considerably.
Although we have no one at present who could help with trialling the product we are happy to know that we can contact you if one does arise.
We would be pleased to recommend your product to parents in the future for appropriate situations.
Yours sincerely

Dear Sir/Madam
“Safe T Sleep” Product supplied by Mrs M P Rutherford
We have gladly agreed to participate in a product trail for the ‘Safe ‘T Sleep” product as the innovative, concept presented is the only sleeping aid we are aware of that assists with positioning infants in their cots and children in their beds so as to prevent climbing and falling. There is no similar product nor any product addressing “child safety” during sleep currently available in the retail market.
Our problem is an infant who moves around his cot displacing bedclothes and whom has a tendency to roll onto his stomach at night. The “safe T sleep” product will address this problem and ensure that he is not at risk.
If more information is required from product trialists, we would be happy to assist.
Yours faithfully

Dear Miriam,
I wish to express to you our endorsement of the Safe-T-Sleep.
The Mothercraft Unit at Waikato Hospital is New Zealand’s only live-in residential unit for mothers and babies from birth to one year of age. Many of the infants that have come in to our service have disturbed sleep patterns and require a Sleep Programme. We have found the Safe-T-Sleep invaluable for keeping infants in a safe and secure sleep position , and see a vast improvement in the duration of the time they sleep over the four nights it takes to do the Sleep Programme. At the end of the programme we see a happy contented child and relaxed parents. Most parents choose to continue to use the Safe-T-Sleep.
With kind regards.
Yours sincerely,

Dear Miriam,
I was first introduced to your product and Parents, babies and childrens expo in Sydney in 2004. I thought it sounded fantastic and oh how I wished I had one when my Son Jarryd was a baby. Jarryd wasn’t the greatest sleeper – I even resorted to taking him to settling clinic for help with his sleep routine. He often got a leg/arm stuck in the bars of the cot, would roll onto his stomach, he would end up entirely at the wrong end of the cot and be completely uncovered in the middle of winter. I believe if I had owned a Safe T Sleep back then – most of his settling issues would have been non existent.
I have been doing some babysitting for a friend and thought what better opportunity than to use it on her baby Hunter, as a trial.
It was easy to position on the mattress. Hunter certainly thought it was a strange idea. For about 1 minute he couldn’t seem to understand why he couldn’t roll over. That was about all the adjustment it took for him. He hasn’t looked back. I saw an immediate improvement in his sleep pattern. Instead waking after 45 minutes, the length of his nap improved. He had previously been able to roll over onto his tummy and was unable to roll back. He would also kick off the sheets/blankets, or become dangerously tangled in them. It also prevented him from getting his arms and legs caught between the bars. Even after a weeks holiday interstate with his family, the return to my house and the Safe T Sleep at nap time, occurred effortlessly.
I have since bought a second Safe T Sleep to use as a spare when laundering is needed, as I’m sure I won’t want to be without it for a single sleep.
Using the Safe T Sleep left me feeling a lot more relaxed and I was checking on Hunter less often because I felt he was safer. Anything that reduces the anxiety/stress of parenting gets my vote.
Thanks so much for the educational version you provided for the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in Sydney where I work. I can see even more benefits for its use in the clinical setting. The importance of positioning in neonates particularly or premature babies is well documented and the Safe T Sleep will certainly help contribute to improvements in developmental care.
Thanks so much for a brilliant product. I can’t recommend your product more highly. Looking forward to using it on baby no:2.
Wish me luck.

To whom it may concern,
In 1992 I was involved in a survey that tested the Safe-T-Sleep bedwrap.
My findings then were overwhelmingly in favour of this product enhancing safe and secure sleep for babies and toddlers.
It provides parents with another choice of providing a safe sleeping environment.
Although not involved in the same field today I continue to highly recommend this product to new parents.

As a Paediatric Nurse, I can see the endless positive benefits in using your product, and have seen the consequences of not using them – broken sleep patterns, concussion, broken limbs and so forth.
I enclose a cheque Please send the sleeper to the above address.
Thanking you.

Hi
I went and bought a safe t sleep on Tuesday, as on Monday my daughter Paige rolled from her back to her stomach. On Monday night I had gotten hardly any sleep as I was so worried she would roll onto her stomach and suffocate! I have also found her all crunched up at the bottom of her cot or sideways some mornings, so the safe t sleep stops her doing that as well, so I’m back to sleeping well – what a wonderful invention!!
Thankyou,

Dear Miriam
I am writing in response to your request for my opinion regarding your product “Safe T Sleep”. I must say I am most impressed with every aspect of and including the presentation. I have also shown it to several of my patients with young infants, and two patients are currently trialling it at present. One mother is an intensive care nurse with a young premature infant and the other is a woman who has had a previous infant with sudden infant death syndrome.
The Safety T Sleep is clearly well presented, attractively coloured and easily washable natural material, which to my mind makes it very acceptable. It is easy to apply and use, and appears to be very comfortable for the infant. In particular, the waist band is wide and relatively thick so that there is no danger of the wrap being pulled into a narrow cord which might have its own complications if a child were restless and struggling with it. Many infants in fact respond to being swaddled with a wide band or blanket and in this respect I think as well as helping infants maintain a back lying position and preventing them from climbing out of their cot, it may also promote faster sleep and more restful sleep.
Clearly, one of the main advantages is in lessening anxiety in parents who have already had an unhappy experience either in their immediate family or with near relatives. I agree with you I have not seen any other products like it and there is a need for something like this to be marketed. In this respect you have my support and best wishes, and I would be very happy to recommend it to my patients.
With kind regards
Yours sincerely

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
RE: SAFE T SLEEP
I have been asked to comment on the above product. Whilst I have not used the product or been involved in its testing and development, Miriam Rutherford approached me early in the development and testing of this product in New Zealand and I made some suggestions which she has followed through with.
This product has been designed with two intentions in mind.
1 For short term use for small infants in conjunction with a changing mat or other such situations.
2 To be used in conjunction with a cot or bed to maintain the child in a safe and appropriate sleeping position in the middle of the cot or bed and for small infants less than six months to help them maintain a supine sleeping position.
A recent national study here in New Zealand has suggested the supine sleeping position is much safer than either a side sleeping or prone sleeping position in terms of risk for cot death.
I have suggested that, in conjunction with the Plunket Society and other organizations, that a survey and a trial of how this product is received by parents was appropriate. I note that this has been done and, while not being an expert in assessment of such devices or child safety, I would comment that there appeared to be no problems in using this device with some 58 babies.
There may be a concern that parents would use this device for restraint of infants. This is not evidenced from the study that was carried out and I do not believe this is a likely eventuality. Parents who buy this sort of device are likely to have better parenting skills and to be able to use the device in an appropriate manner. I understand an appropriate form of education will be provided with the device emphasizing that Safe T Sleep be used for older infants while asleep and be used only in short term situations to restrain an infant e.g. on a change table, changing mat, etc for restraint.

Dear Miriam,
As promised here are my thoughts & observations about the ‘Safety Sleeper’. Before I go on any further however, I would just like to take a moment to thank you for introducing Joel & myself to the ‘Safety Sleeper’. For us it has been a God-send & having never seen anything like the ‘Safety Sleeper’ before, am most grateful that Dr Tonkin brought us together.
Firstly the peace of mind that the ‘Safety Sleeper’ has given me is uninsurable. Joel is present a very strong & active 5 months old & until we started using the ‘Safety Sleeper, caused me numerable sleepless nights. Joel has slept on his stomach since he was 4 month old & no matter what I did, I could not stop him. I was becoming worried that he would become a Cot Death victim, until my introduction to the ‘Safe Sleeper’.
The ‘Safe Sleeper’ keeps Joel on his back all night, without needing assistance from pillows, pins or other devices. The ability to roll over however, is the only restriction of movement. Joel can still kick blankets off, play with toys & turn his head freely. He does not become upset about the inability to roll over, & infact has slept better since the introduction of the ‘Safety Sleeper’. Reducing the risk of cot death is not the only safety feature of the ‘Safety Sleeper’. Accidents related to the cot are sharply reduced, as baby is safely wrapped with the ‘Safety Sleeper’. The ‘Safety Sleeper’ has the ability to save the thrifty money as well. Joel has had less leaks at night, saving me washing extra naps sheets & nightwear. The ‘Safety Sleeper’ in keeping Joel on his back, causing wetness to drain to the back of the nappy, rather than out the side or over the front, altogether making for a happier baby & mother.
The benefits of the ‘Safety Sleeper’ are endless & as individual mothers, professionals & guardians we will all see different things that it has to offer. For myself I see the ‘Safety Sleeper’ as a necessary tool in the combat against Cot Death. I now know that I am doing everything to eliminate the risks for my baby!
One again Miriam, Thanks. I hope the above is of some help.
Thanking you

Dear Dr Rowley,
I would like to thank you for giving me the opportunity to trial the new Safe T Sleep. To be honest when you asked me if I was interested in trialling the Safe T Sleep, I really did not feel as though we had a need for it as our baby was perfectly happy to sleep on his back and at two months of age was too young to roll over.
Nevertheless we did use it in his bassinette. When we transferred him to his cot we did not put the Safe T Sleep on at first. It was then that we discovered our baby’s ability to snuggle under the bedclothes. Twice in one night we woke to his muffled cries and found him completely under the bedclothes, despite us having made his bed at the bottom of the cot.
This was obviously of great concern to us. The Safe T Sleep has completely alleviated this problem as it prevents him from snuggling down under the covers. We have not put him to bed without using the Safe T Sleep since and have never found him under the covers again.
We certainly would not be without the Safe T Sleep now for this reason and also because soon he will learn to roll over and it will prevent him rolling onto his stomach during his sleep.
I would have no hesitation in recommending the Safe T Sleep to other parents as it has given us such peace of mind each night.
Thank you again for the opportunity to trial this new idea which certainly has my full support.
Yours faithfully,

Dear Miriam,
I was so very impressed with the advertisement I saw on T.V. for the Safe-T-Sleep. Here was a product that was primarily to keep a baby/toddler safe in a cot/bed and at the same time give them security and comfort while still allowing a reasonable range of movement. Not only does the Safe-T-Sleep eliminate the need for bumper pads around cots or extra pillows around beds to prevent injuries, but is prevents baby rolling onto its stomach. The Safe-T-Sleep is so convenient for travel. Its versatility and compactness makes the portacot unnecessary.
When my daughter was born earlier this year the purchase of a Safe-T-Sleep was my main priority. Although the advertisement had really impressed me, I didn’t realise the true value of the Safe-T-Sleep until I began to use it. When my daughter is in her cot I feel confident knowing that she is safe, that she cant become tangled in the cot rails or wriggle down under the blankets, or even end up on the floor. She appears to settle well with this safety wrap around her as if she feels secure.
As a registered nurse I am becoming more aware of the advantages this product could have in paediatric wards. It is not uncommon for staffing levels to be very low at times and generally on night duty there are often only two nurses to cover a full ward. The use of the Safe-T-Sleep would ensure that the baby/toddler would remain safe in a cot/bed if the nurse was unable to get to the child as soon as it woke.
In some situations the Safe-T-Sleep would be beneficial in the care and treatment of the baby/toddler, i.e. where its movement needs to be limited or controlled because of intravenous therapy, repair of fractures and other surgical procedures which require limited movement to allow for healing.
The reality is that staffing levels are unable to provide the environment for ultimate safety for our children in hospital but the Safe-T- Sleep would go a long way towards improving the safety standards and decrease the risk of accidents. Situations for the use of the Safe-T-Sleep are numerous but the results are always the same – a safe and secure sleep for the baby/toddler and peace of mind for the care-giver.

Dear Miriam,
I am writing to you to thank you for a remarkable childcare product. My husband Robert and I were given a Safe T Sleep ‘Sam’ from a friend before the birth of our daughter. Elizabeth (now 22 months old). We researched its use via Plunket and friends and magazines and found out that they help to reduce cot death risk by keeping baby on its back or side.
After Elizabeth was born we were shocked to find that she had a unilateral cleft lip and palate. The surgeon told us what was required to mend it and she had her first surgery at 5 months.
Prior to the surgery we used our S.T.S to keep a reflux baby safely in position on her side on a titled mattress. She could not slide down the bed and end up under the covers which is another cot death risk.
While in Middlemore hospital we used our S.T.S for the same reason and to keep her face away from the cot bars and her pillow while her facial reconstruction surgery was healed.
The nursing staff liked them, as they knew the child could some to no harm while it was left alone or while the child’s parent slept beside it at night.
As you can see from the photos – she slept well while in hospital and liked to have her arms inside the S.T.S while sleeping (even with the splints) as this made her feel secure (photo 1).
When playing we left her in the S.T.S but sat her up in a bit on pillows (photo 2). With this arrangement she could play but not topple against the cot bars or bang against the toys, which was so very important as any knock could rupture the sutures and end in a failed result.
We even fed her in it when I needed my hands free and couldn’t hold her.
As you can see from the last photo she was not very happy with the whole procedure but we know she was safe, secures and comfortable.
Now at nearly two Elizabeth sleeps in a single bed in her S.T.S. we know she cant get out and up to mischief in the night and she knows bed means sleep.
We will not hesitate to use a S.T.S for any future children we may have and strongly recommend its use to all mothers. The peace of mind is worth every cent.
Warmest Thanks

Dear Sir:
I am writing this in support of the Safe T Sleep (NZ), a bed wrap that is being used in New Zealand to promote good sleeping habits in infants. This product is not a restraint but a wrap that allows parents to ensure that their infants are secured in a safe and comfortable sleeping position.
We see many parents in our Unit who are distressed by their children’s poor sleep patterns. Some of these children are special needs children who are developmentally delayed and have extremely poor sleep habits which mean that their parents must get up several times a night to attend to them. Others, are children who are overly active and cause considerable worry for their parents by climbing or falling out of their cots. I can see great advantages for these parents to use a bed wrap such as the Safe T Sleep.
While we have not had the opportunity to trial the product to a great extent, in the case we have advised parents about this product we found that, when properly demonstrated, the Safe T Sleep was a great help. Children slept better, with less wakening and parents found that they also could sleep assured that their child was safe and comfortable.
The Safe T Sleep is a product that I am very happy to recommend to parents and one that I feel sure will allow both parents and children a more secure and restful sleep.
Sincerely,

Dear Ms Rutherford
I am writing to thank you for creating Safe-T-Sleep – a fabulous product.
My daughter is now 10 months old and until 2 weeks ago sleeping was always a haphazard, will – she- or – wont – she affair, resulting in an over-tired baby at 9.30pm and worn-out mum and dad!!
Now, since using SafeT-Sleep, I put her to bed awake knowing that she cannot get up and start walking round the cot crying (pitiful and dangerous), this has made my husband and I a lot happier. Using Dr. Christopher Greens Sleep Programme in conjunction with Safe-T-Sleep now means she is asleep within 5 minutes on average.
I recommend this to all frustrated parents who cannot leave their babies to scream for hours standing in their cot (like the Lesley Centre Sleep Programme Suggests).
So thank you for allowing my husband and I to enjoy our evenings, for making bed-time relaxed and for enabling my daughter to fall asleep happily.
Yours faithfully

Regarding the Safe T Sleep™
I have been using the Safe T Sleep™ for the last couple of weeks and have found it most beneficial my 9 month old is now sleeping longer at night and as he is unable to roll over. I feel better as he was a baby who liked to sleep on his stomach.
I just wished these were out when my older children were babies. They are great.
Thank you

Up until a week ago the longest sleep my daughter Alexandra has had since birth was 3 hours. (she is now 11 months old).
After trips to doctors a paediatrician and a chiropractor I finally accepted the fact that there were no medical explanations for her unusual sleep disturbance. In desperation I considered “sleep programs” but was reluctant to let her cry herself to sleep as she would stand in her cot and just not give up. So I held out a little longer and discovered Miriam and the “Safe-T-Sleep”.
I was encouraged to give this product a try as I realised that Alex liked to feel pressure on her body to keep her still and lying down which enabled her to return to sleep after a wakeful period.
So armed with the Safe-T-Sleep and a very subtle sleep program my husband and I planned to try for two weeks to see some improvement.
Three days later we scrapped the sleep program and let the Safe-T-Sleep take over. She was sleeping 7-8 hours at a stretch!!
The Safe-T-Sleep seemed to make Alexandra feel more secure during her night waking so that she did not need to call out for help to be put back to sleep. It is quite unbelievable how quickly her sleep pattern has changed and so impressed am I with the results that I am positive came about with the use of the Safe-T-Sleep that I thoroughly support Miriam in her marketing venture.
This product is going to bring much relief and security to all caring parents once it is widely available.
Many thanks for the opportunity to use the Safe-T-Sleep Miriam.

Dear Miriam,
Thank you for inviting me to take part in your “Safe-T” Sleep survey.
Sarah was 9months old when I started using “Safe T” Sleep and was very unsettled at night, sometimes waking 6 or 7 times. After taking two days to get used to the product, I found she started to sleep longer and a lot sounder. She was unable to move up to the top of the cot and jam her head, or crawl out from under her covers and wake up freezing on top of them. I now find that if she wakes at all, it will only be one or two times a night!
I also have a 3 ½ year old son who, when first introduced to his big bed fell out quite regularly, sometimes bruising his head badly. I know that with using “Safe T” Sleep, this will not be a problem with Sarah.
Apart from helping to eliminate cot death in infants, I can see this product as a nursery necessity in many other ways.
Congratulations Miriam. I wish you every success with this product-I only wish it had been around when my other four children were babies.
Regards
Carol Ryan.

Dear Miriam,
Thank you for sending my order so quickly.
My little boy was 6 months old and was waking every 1 ½ - 2 hours all night. He had been sleeping through most nights until he was 3 ½ mths old when I transferred him to his cot.
David cut his two front teeth then and got into the habit of waking all the time. I’d go in to check on him & he’d be jammed in a corner with no blankets or had his arms or legs through the bars.
As I was due to go back to work & wanted to start feeling human again I was willing to try anything.
The first night with the Safe T Sleep David woke at 2am. I went & picked him up & then put him straight down again. He cried for about 5-10 minutes & woke again at 5am. This was the pattern for 3nights & now he sleeps through till 5-6 most mornings. His cot is always fairly tidy & I think he likes the security of being tucked in nice & firm like he was in his bassinette without him wriggling round the cot all night his toys stay within reach for him to play with as well.
Anyway it’s done the trick!
Thank you very much.
