đĄSafety Tips
Get Down on Their Level: Crawl around your home to see potential hazards from a child's perspective. You'll be surprised what you discover!
Reassess Regularly: As your child grows and develops new skills, new safety concerns arise. Reassess your safety measures every few months.
Teach, Don't Just Protect: While childproofing is essential, also teach your children about dangers and safe behaviors in age-appropriate ways.
Supervision is Key: No amount of childproofing replaces adult supervision. Stay vigilant, especially in high-risk areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and around water.
