Yes, when used correctly. Ensure the sheet fits snugly, the mattress is firm, and no loose bedding is in the basket. For sleep, only a fitted sheet is recommended by the AAP.
Not for unsupervised sleep. Quilts are for decorative or tummy time use only. In the basket, only a fitted sheet should be used for sleep.
Look for OEKO-TEX Standard 100 (no harmful substances) or GOTS (organic fiber) certification. These ensure the fabric is safe and free from toxins.
