Charleston -- The Nov. 24 announcement about a crib recall has parents and daycares across the country scrambling to find out if they have one of the affected cribs.

"When we came in, we were actually underneath the floor, trying to find the name of the crib." said Jamie Gaeger, co-director with the Fort Hill Child Development Center Inc. in Charleston.

The problem: The plastic hardware on the side rail can detach from the crib, creating a space big enough for an infant to become trapped and suffocate.

"That is the danger. The sides go up and down multiple times during the day. Over the course of time, the hardware becomes detached, creating this wedge." said Inez Tenenbaum, chairman of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The Fort Hill center's co-director said she was relieved to find out their cribs are not on the list.

"This crib actually you pull on the side and pull down. It's not the drop kind," said Gaeger.

Once infants here start pulling up on the crib, they're transferred to standard cribs that do not pull down. Safety, she says, is their top concern.

"I think anything that has latches has an opportunity to injure a child at any point in time. But our staff are wonderful about checking the cribs, making sure none of the bolts or anything are loose," said Gaeger.

The recalled Stork Craft cribs were sold at major retailers between January 1993 to October of this year. Some carry the Fischer Price logo.

The CPSC said parents should stop using the cribs immediately and contact Stork Craft for a free repair kit.

There have been more than a hundred reports of drop-side detachments, resulting in numerous injuries and four deaths.

The Consumer Producer Safety Commission said the industry has reported that it will no longer recommend drop-side cribs.
