##### Regulation 23 — Safeguarding health, safety and welfare of child

- Safe Sleep: Safe sleep practices were not always implemented in the Toddler room in line with Tusla’s safe sleep guidelines for children under 24 months; • Three children aged under 24 months were placed to sleep on a stackable bed. The stackable bed was not suitable for a child aged under 24 months, in line with Tusla’s Early Learning and Care sleep provision guidance for children under 24 months, which requires a floor bed to be fitted with a mattress of at least 6cm in thickness. • A sleep plan was not in place for the three children aged under 24 months who were not sleeping in cots. This is at variance with the guidelines that state a child can sleep in an approved alternative to a cot, provided it is agreed with parents, and a sleep plan is established and signed

- Corrective & Preventive Action Safe Sleep: A total of 6 new contour cocoon mattress pods were purchased to use with any child under 15 months. Sleep plans have been put in place for any child under 2 years of age. A sleep plan has been created for any child over 15 months who is going to transition from a cot to a floor bed. We will work on the sleep plan in collaboration with the parent to ensure it is in the best interest of the child. We have updated our sleep policy to ensure it includes the relevant safety precautions when transitioning a child from a cot to a floor bed

Found compliant: Regulation 9, 11, 19.
