This is the sentence...

La niña descansa tranquila en su cunita.

Is there such a word as 'cunita' because I cannot find it in the dictionary!

¡Muchas gracias!

Yes, cunita is Spanish for little crib. You have to search for "cuna" as the dictionary is not recognising the diminutive of the word. Just one of the dictionary´s problems.

I Googled and found "cradle," in a discussion about a song.

That seems to fit the context of the sentence.
