-- Put Out the Cat - Keep pets out of nurseries and cribs. Pet dander can
lead to allergic reactions, causing discomfort -- and poor sleep.
Moreover, pets may also bring in pests, such as ticks and flees, into
the nursery from the outdoors.
-- It's the Humidity - Control moisture levels to keep baby's room
comfortable year round. In the summer, humidity can cause odors and
mold. In winter, heated air becomes dry, prompting sore throats and
dry skin. An air conditioner or dehumidifier
(http://www.sylvane.com/dehumidifiers.html) can help in the summer. A
humidifier can add moisture, and comfort, in the heating season. If
winter drafts are an issue, be sure any supplemental heating units are
certified as child-safe.
