Description
One of the most important things to consider as a new parent is ways to practice safer sleeping with your little one. Sadly, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome claims the lives of around 4 babies each week in the UK so informing ourselves about ways to help reduce this risk and to ensure your baby is sleeping as safely as possible is a key part of parenthood preparation.
I am delighted to be joined on this week’s episode by the wonderful Stella parkin who works for The Lullaby Trust to talk through ways we can do just that and provide you with some of the essential information you need to support your little one’s safer sleeping journey.
If anyone has not yet checked out the lullaby trust website, I highly recommend that you do, it is a fantastic resource that can provide you with the best, evidence based information about safer sleeping and reducing the risk of SIDS.

Joining us for today’s chat is Stella, Stella qualified as a Registered General Nurse in 1986 at Guy’s Hospital, London. Following a range of nursing roles including as a practice nurse and school nurse, Stella undertook her health visitor qualification and gained a PGCE working as a lecturer on a range of health-related courses.
Stella initially joined The Lullaby Trust in 2016 as a Regional Development Officer in the South West. The role involved representing The Lullaby Trust at a regional level to raise and maintain awareness of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) within the region and spread safer sleep messages, mainly through delivering training. She also supported bereaved parents in the region through annual Family Days and was the local contact for Lullaby Trust befrienders.
Stella now works as the Professional Development Lead within The Lullaby Trust. This new role means that Stella is involved with ensuring that The Lullaby Trust’s work reflects public health priorities.
I am so pleased Stella is joining us today to share her tips, tricks and important facts about safer sleeping that could, quite honestly, help to save a baby’s life.
