My baby started daycare and in the cot rooms they have a lamp with orange light on the entire time that babies try to sleep. My baby is a light sleeper and obviously she can´t sleep with lights on. They said that is for the safety of the children but if they have actual visibility of the cot rooms and they do the 10 minutes check ups, is it necessary to have that light on? In my opinion this practice violates the rights of children to adequate rest.

Child Care Services are regulated & as part of these, Educators are required to always have children within sight & hearing distance & to regularly check that the sleeping child is breathing.

It is difficult if baby is sleeping in a darkened room, to be able to observe them satisfactorily.
Most babies will sleep in a room that is not completely darkened.
How old is your baby? Does she sleep ok at home?
Are the Educators having difficulty getting her to have sleep at the Centre?
