Back to Sleep: Safe Sleep Saves Lives! May 24th, 2011

Webinar Registration

Join us and learn what it means for babies to get their best and safest sleep while reducing the risk of SIDS. We will also briefly discuss ways to support families when SIDS does happen in and out of the child care setting. Many parents are concerned about how to get their babies asleep and stay asleep.  Learn about  helping a baby sleep and creating an environment that will give baby the best chance of waking up.

We will also hear from Shelley Blecha about her experience when her 3-month-old son, Nathan, died in an unlicensed child care setting as a result of being placed on his stomach to sleep. Ms. Blecha is now active in children’s advocacy efforts at both the state and federal level. She is a member of NACCRRA’s Parent Advisory Council, the Child Care Aware® of Missouri parent network, and she is active in the SIDS awareness community.
