On the contrary, ferrets are generally kept in cages, whereas dogs and cats conventionally have free roam of the house. Ferrets out of their cage should be monitored, especially in the presence of infants who don't know how to interact with the animals yet.

We had some concerns about our dog around a newborn child, we had to be super careful while the dog adjusted to the baby being in the house, because she showed a decent amount of jealousy for the attention the baby was getting.

I wouldn't consider allowing a ferret free roam of your infant's room to be normal ferret or infant care, it'd be irresponsible in terms of both.
