Food and water should not be left in the crate overnight. That is asking for a puppy to start howling because she needs to potty. Food should only be given at specific times so that you can make sure that she goes out to potty after eating. A good long potty break before bed should help keep ovenight accidents down.
Be careful of the type of toys you leave in the crate with the pup. You don't want to leave anything that will break off into pieces that could be swallowed and choke or cause blockages in the animals digestive tract.
