Is it safe to use cot banners?

I can’t find the cot banners that go around the cot from the inside. Is it safe to use them if I stich one at home?

No, it is not safe. It can be a contributing factor to cot death.

Any cot banner would need to be securely fitted to the cot to ensure there’s no danger of them coming off.
