Babies should sleep on their backs, in a crib or bassinet, without pillows or toys to prevent infant sleeping deaths.
Babies and young children under five are more at risk in cold weather. While outside, the NHS advises that babies and children should wear several layers of clothes to keep warm, including a hat and mittens to stop heat loss. In the car, for safety reasons, you should keep thick jumpers and coats to a minimum, so there is not too much padding between your child and the car seat straps.
