Hello, My daughter is 3months old. I still have her sleeping in her bassinet in our room. When would you recommend putting her in her cot in her own room? Also would I put a nightlight on for her once she goes in the cot? I have a night light that changes colours. Is there a certain colour that helps a baby sleep better? Thank you so much! Bec
Red Nose Education
Red Nose recommends room sharing for the first 6-12 months.
Many parents do not have the space in their room to have baby in a cot & Red Nose recognises that room sharing may not be possible when baby is in a cot.
Is your baby rolling yet?
It is important that baby is moved from a basinet to a cot once they are rolling.
Red Nose has no information about nightlights, including the effect of any specific colours.
