The non-allergenicity of breast milk could keep breathing passages less congested. This can be caused by too many blankets and an overabundance of sleep clothing. There are increased respiratory problems among children who are exposed to a smoke-filled environment. There is also increased incidence of SIDS in babies who are exposed to cigarette smoke. The infant teachers in our child care centers are aware and practice all of the recommendations for SIDS prevention.
All infants are always under direct observation during sleep.
This means additional protection for the infants in our care. Your input and comments on how to enhance our effort are welcomed and appreciated.
