Licensee shall provide a separate crib, portacrib, or playpen in which each infant or toddler can sleep. Each crib, portacrib, or playpen shall be equipped with a firm-fitting mattress or pad made of waterproof materials. A parent or legal guardian may provide or approve the use of a bassinet for an infant and is responsible along with the caregiver to monitor its use closely. (Manufacturers of bassinets indicate that a bassinet should no longer be used once an infant begins moving and turning unassisted.)
During the PTQ rating observation both infants present were laid down for nap in their own pack-n-plays. One child was nine months old and the other was eight months old. Each had a pacifier with a beaded clip still attached while they slept.
