Do I say something to DCP?

C is in a substitute DCP for the month of July.  On Friday I picked him up from the new place, and he was waking up from a nap in a PnP.  When we went in to get him, he had a bib on (he's a drooler) but he had flipped it up and covering his face.  I don't know how long it had been covering his face, and he was fine, but after I left I got to thinking that this is a potential hazard.  Would I be out of line if I called the sub-DCP and asked her to take off the drool bib when she puts him down for naps?

    I'm sure it's fine. My BFF's son slept with his security blanket over his face for much of his infancy. However, I would say something just in case. Next time you see DCP just tell them that he doesn't need the bib to sleep.

    I would say something. I never put my kids to sleep w/ a bib on, he can turn his head and it can hurt his neck or strangle him.

    definitely say something.

    he should NOT be wearing bibs for a nap. My son wore bibs all day everyday until he was around 10 months old, but we never, ever let him sleep in them.

    Definitely say something - we don't let J wear bibs for naps at all. I might be paranoid, but it seems like a hazard to me.

    This.  DD1 was a crazy spitter and had to be changed multiple times per day but we never put her to bed or let DCP put her to bed with a bib on.

    Definitely say something.

    BTW, where did you end up taking him?  I've been meaning to e-mail you to ask...  send me an e-mail, and let me know how things are going (aside from the bib thing...)  This morning, Jac just started back at A's for the month.

    I know it's already been said but DEFINITELY say something.  The bib over his face would concern me a lot less than having something around his neck when he's sleeping, even if it's a velcro pull-off.  And if it wasn't velcro, I'd seriously consider pulling him (I know, easier said than done).  That would make me WAY too nervous.
