Cot-to-Bed Safety

SIDS and Kids Cot-to-Bed application provides vital information to mothers, carer’s and health care professionals on when to move a child out of a cot and into an adult bed.

In Australia an increasing number of babies and toddlers are sustaining injuries from falling out of cots and beds. This is due to either not recognizing the appropriate time to move a baby or young child out of a cot, or a baby or young child being placed too early in an adult bed.
