Cribs
New or gently used cribs only. To ensure the child’s safety, inspect each crib for the following safety features:
- slats spaced no more than 2 inches apart
- no missing or loose slats
- a properly sized mattress. This mattress is too small if you can fit more than two fingers between the edge of the mattress and the side of the crib. An infant can get his head or body wedged in that space and suffocate
- corner posts are no more than 1/16 inch high. They can be catch points for objects or clothing worn by a child and cause strangulation
- no missing or broken hardware
- no loose hardware (hardware that is intended to be tightened but can’t be)
- no decorative cutouts in the headboard or footboard (cutouts can entrap a child’s head)
- no unsecured mattress support hangers that can be easily dislodged (children can be entrapped and suffocate)
- paint is in tact and not chipping
