### Experts Recommend Clearing Cots of Non-Essential Items to Ensure Baby Safety

### Parents Urged to Clear Baby's Cot Following Safety Warnings
Parents have been advised to take certain items out of their baby's cot. Recent guidelines stress that keeping cots clear of extra items is essential for safety.
A spokesperson highlighted, "It is easy to buy add-ons that look comforting, but the cot should stay clear. Babies only need a firm, flat mattress, a tight-fitting sheet, and the right sleep clothing for the room. Anything extra can move while a baby sleeps and create risk."
Families should ensure that cots include only the necessary items to enhance safety and reduce the risk of accidents. Removing unnecessary objects can help keep babies safe while they sleep.
