Babies need adequate sleep through the night and naps during the day to support their development and growth. Sleep allows the body to regenerate cells and refresh the brain and body. During sleep, the body can regenerate tissues like hair, nails, and skin. Choosing comfortable, cozy bedding that the baby finds secure helps ensure a good night's sleep and allows the baby to reach their full potential through adequate rest and stimulation of growth.
