Indigenous infants are disproportionately impacted by sudden, unexpected infant death during sleep. The refreshed Honouring Our Babies: Safer Sleep toolkit is intended to support providers in their discussions of safer infant sleep with Indigenous families.
The updated resource was informed by Indigenous family members, Elders, and a variety of health-care providers including midwives, registered nurses, birth workers and Doulas. The toolkit is an update from the Honouring Our Babies: Safe Sleep Cards: Facilitator Guide 2017.
Health-care providers are in a position to help guide and coach new parents when it comes to topics like safer sleep practices. With that in mind, the toolkit is intended to support providers in their discussions with Indigenous families during the preconception, pregnancy and postpartum period. The toolkit encourages providers to use a harm-reduction approach that is person and family centred, trauma informed and culturally safe.
