Other preventive measures include: breast feeding, not smoking during and after pregnancies, and parents should not to sleep with their infants.

As an early years practitioner you will recognise that children’s play is closely linked to their learning and development. Children learn in so many different ways but you will notice that they learn mainly through play. When children are able to do many different activity’s that allows them to lean but have fun at the same time thy will find what they are doing fun and will engage the children.

They also have files for each child and keep information and pictures of different activities they do while they are at the nursery.

I have found that Cry It Out is one of the most commonly recommended sleep methods, perhaps because it has the most simple instructions: “Let your child cry until they fall asleep”. Parental intervention is not required, so it can go faster than other methods and there are less opportunities for the parent to be inconsistent; however, many parents don't like leaving their child not knowing what is going on with them.

2. If the child is in a position to sleep on his back, tilt the child's body to one side.
