ECECD Home Visiting provides any expectant or newborn NM family who requests it a Safe Sleep Baby Kit containing materials to foster a Safe Sleep environment in a variety of spaces. Our purpose is to provide all families in New Mexico access to and awareness of a Safe Sleep environment in a way that is respectful, culturally responsive, equitable, and informed. The Safe Sleep Baby Kit is distributed upon a family’s request by Home Visiting programs and partner agencies and organizations throughout our state.
The kit includes a bassinet, infant clothing, baby board books, and educational materials about Safe Sleep, baby’s development, and resources available to families of young children in our state. The Safe Sleep Baby Kit is available to families regardless of income, home language, citizenship status, or family structure.
