Safe Sleep for Baby

Hillcrest neotalogist and Oklahoma Safe Sleep Champion, Dr. Lisa Owens, is asking parents in Oklahoma to take the pledge to put their baby in a safe sleep environment every time. We know parents love their babies and would never want to put them in danger, but accidents can happen if babies are not sleeping in a safe environment.

SIDS, sudden infant death syndrome, is a leading cause of death for babies under the age of one. A safe sleep environment is one of the easiest ways parents can reduce the risk by putting them to bed on their backs in a safe crib. Here is a video demonstrating a safe sleep environment.
