10 week old napping alone in room?

Hello, I know the guidance is that baby should be with you until 6 months, but what would you think about leaving them in with a toddler for a nap? Presumably they have the safety of someone to match their breathing to still.

Toddler son goes to bed at 7, and 10 week baby like to nap 7 til 9, would it be safe to leave them in the same room (with a monitor etc)?

DH is often away with work so this would give me the chance to eat / bath / watch a box set, but just worried I'm being a bit cavalier.....

Thanks in advance.
