Pinellas County Campaign
Every other day in Florida, a baby dies from suffocation while sleeping unsafely. In Pinellas County, the Juvenile Welfare Board of Pinellas County has teamed up with others across the state on the Sleep Baby Safely campaign to offer life-saving tips everyone should know and share.

SAFE SLEEP ABCs:
ALONE, BACK, CRIB
Always put babies to sleep alone on their back in an empty crib with only a firm mattress and tight-fitting sheet.
SHARE A ROOM,
NOT A BED
Bring baby’s crib into parent’s room, and never lay baby to sleep on a soft surface like an adult bed, couch or air mattress.
STAY ALERT WHILE
FEEDING BABY
Set an alarm and always return baby to crib after feeding. Breastfeed, if possible – it’s best for baby.
