Why Childproof?
The primary and obvious reason to childproof your home is because it is an effective strategy which can greatly reduce the risk of preventable injury or death in the home.
As baby becomes more mobile following the infancy stage, it becomes more of a challenge for parents and caregivers to keep one step ahead and ensure baby’s safety in the home environment. There are so many exciting and stimulating places and items to explore with all the senses of a naturally curious and developing toddler, so our goal is to help you identify the possible hazards lurking in your home and assist you in making your home a safe place for baby to play and explore as he/she develops.
Did You Know?
Preventable injuries are the #1 killer of kids in the U.S., according to Safe Kids Worldwide (safekids.org). Each year, 2200 families lose a child to a preventable injury in the home and 3.5 million children are treated for injuries in emergency departments that commonly happen in homes.
A few simple steps can greatly reduce the risk of injury or death in the home. In addition to addressing safety issues with windows, blind cords, outlets and doors, these steps include but are not limited to: securing cabinets that contain items potentially dangerous or poisonous to children, installing carbon monoxide detectors, checking and changing smoke detectors on a regular basis, giving your child your full and undivided attention around water, anchoring TVs and furniture prone to tipping, blocking stairways with appropriately secured gates and making sure babies sleep in cribs alone and on their backs with cribs free of objects.
