Educator said the infant usually sleeps in a different pack n play with fitted sheet. Licensor suggested that if the baby were to fall asleep playing, that she can move the sleeping infant in the correct pack n play with fitted sheet to continue napping. Corrective action: The loose blanket was removed and i ordered a mat for playyard. The infant will only use play yard for play and will be napped in her designated pack and play with proper mattress, no toys or blankets.
