Infants need to sleep for lengthy periods of time throughout the day and night, and the amount of sleep they need increases as they grow.

Safe sleep practices, such as regular naps and a set bedtime, can help to ensure that infants get the sleep they need. This can support their healthy development and improve overall quality of life.
