- A soft, washable rug with non-slip underlay.

Tip: Follow safe-sleep guidance: place the baby on her back on a firm, flat mattress in a bare cot, with no pillows, bumpers, toys or loose bedding, and keep the room at a comfortable temperature. Anchor dressers, bookcases and changing units to the wall, use cordless blinds or keep cords well out of reach, and keep the cot away from windows, radiators, shelves and wall art.
