Licensing observed an infant asleep in a crib on her stomach. A blanket was hanging over the edge of the crib so that part of the blanket was inside the crib and part of the blanket was outside. There was also a shatterproof mirror with a plush edge attached to another side of the crib, facing inside toward the infant. Neither they blanket nor the mirror were touching the mattress.
Licensing observed an infant asleep on her stomach in a crib. Licensing asked the infant teacher how the infant was placed down to sleep, and the teacher said that she had placed the child on her stomach. She stated that the child was 8 months old and could roll over. She then stated that she had put the infant to sleep on her side. Licensing discussed with both infant teachers present that all infants up to one year of age must be put down on their backs to sleep, regardless of whether or not the infant is able to roll over.
