Are sleep spaces safe and supervised?
Yes. Safe sleep environments are designed to reduce risks, support children's wellbeing and allow teachers to closely monitor children while they rest. Safe sleep practices are an important part of infant and toddler care in early childhood education.
Children need sleep spaces that are appropriate for their age and development, with regular supervision while they are sleeping. Clear sleep procedures, suitable sleep equipment and ongoing monitoring all help support safe and restful sleep.
At BestStart, children sleep in approved cots with clean bedding, and sleep areas are arranged to allow clear visibility and easy access for teachers. Regular sleep checks are carried out to monitor each child's wellbeing, and teachers follow established safe sleep practices at all times. Sleep environments are carefully managed to provide a calm, safe and supervised space for rest.
Good to know
- Safe sleep practices can help reduce risks and support healthy sleep habits during the early years.
- Sharing any changes to your child's sleep patterns, sleep environment or comfort routines can help teachers provide more consistent support.
- Childrens' sleep needs change rapidly during the first two years of life, so sleep plans and routines may be reviewed and adjusted over time.
