What is the safest mattress and safest way for babies to sleep?

Due in October, and have two (much) older children.

Totally confused about all the options available. I won't be co-sleeping, and baby will hopefully be in a next to me cot or moses basket beside my bed for first 6 months.

Can anyone point me to any sources / guidelines please? Which is the safest mattress? swaddling / not swaddling (used to swaddle DS which really helped him sleep but not sure it's recommended anymore), those sleep sack things, anything else?

Thanks 😊😊😊
