The moment your baby starts to roll over, you need to lie on the floor and look up at the vast array of exciting things that will shortly become in reach. This is when child safety products become imperative.
Covering electric plug sockets is one of the first child home safety issues that needs to be addressed. Those two or three (depending upon which country you live in) little holes in the wall are extremely exciting. Just the right size for inquisitive fingers. So many parents fail to understand the fascination and fail to put in place the easiest of solutions - socket covers. Little plastic gadgets that slot into the holes just like a normal plug.
Leading away from any used plugs will be electrical cables to lamps and computer equipment - when you’re a baby who is still rolling or crawling, such long leads can be an invitation for a good old tug to pull you along or upwards, resulting in a nasty bang on the head at the very least. These can be made less appealing by tidying them away using an electric cable shortener.
When babies make the transition from rolling to crawling to toddling, you have to watch out for any sharp edges. They’re still teetering and have not quite perfected the whole balance thing so fall over frequently. Sharp skirting boards or the edges of furniture can make a nasty head wound which could have been easily avoided if the point had been covered by a corner cushion.
Another problem that occurs regularly around this time is getting fingers or toes trapped in or under doors. They have a horrible habit of clinging on to door frames with no realisation of the dangers of holding on at the hinge side. Fortunately, there are a whole range of grippers, catchers and stoppers to protect tiny digits from being inadvertently squashed.
Next up, cupboards and drawers that contain items you would not want your child to consume, like household cleaners and disinfectants or pharmaceutical products. The doors to such storage areas can be kept locked with a variety of latches — magnetic fastenings or just plastic tags which require a certain amount of digital dexterity to release them. Fridge and freezer locks of the same type are also available.
Not forgetting that perennial attraction, the toilet. Once mobile it seems to exert an inexorable draw on so many children, who seem to have some sort of instinctive need to investigate its contents. The application of a lock on the loo seat can foil even the most intrepid explorer.
So, the first rule of child home safety, if you can stick something in it, pull it or open it, it needs to be covered.
Fortunately, you can buy packs of child safety products, whose contents will cover the most common problems.

When our children are about one or two months old, we do not need to worry about them pulling things down as they explore their new surroundings. However, as they grow, we need to keep both eyes on them, because, although we may think that we have covered all the safety angles that are around the home, to keep them safe, they are always proving us wrong.
Yes, there is always something that we can do to make sure that they are protected in their homes and some of these things are:
Nothing Over The Edge
Cords are something that we may be guilty of leaving to hang over the counter, table etc. and this is certainly an accident waiting to happen. If a toddler sees them, their natural instinct may be to pull at it and the result is not usually a good one. Sometimes, it may be that at the end of the cord is a hot iron, an electric kettle, or even an electric deep fryer.
Therefore, when we are finished using these items, it is always best to store them neatly out of the child’s reach.
While In Arms
Sometimes, when we have them in our arms, we may forget that they could reach out and grab whatever catches their eyes. Therefore, we need to be aware of what we are drawing them closer to, as we hold them.
In addition, we may walk them over to something that we would like them to hold, or perhaps touch and they may do exactly that. However, when they are there, they may decide that they would like to touch something else and before we know it, it may be in their hands.
Therefore, it is best to make sure that there is nothing close by that we do no want them to get hold of during this time.
Keep Doors Close
We need to practice this one on a regular basic, so that it will become natural for us to do and that is, we should always close the doors after using them and this means all doors. After using the washer and drying, the linen closet, the attic and basement, the cupboard and the list goes on.
It goes without saying that when a toddler comes to an open door, it will be very hard for him/her not to go through, or enter. Yes, it is best that we teach them never to go through, or enter and as we do so, we can help them out by keeping them closed.

Having a baby is one of the most beautiful experiences in a woman’s life. Therefore, when your baby comes into this world, you have to nurture him in a loving and caring environment. Apart from feeding, bathing and buying clothes for him, you also have to ensure his safety. Especially when you are traveling, your car must have adequate arrangements so that the baby does not feel any sort of discomfort.
It is very important that you have infant/toddler/newborn car seats in your vehicle. Accidents might happen anytime and anywhere. These car seats will keep your child safe and protect him from any harm. The seats should ideally have a five point harness system to ensure that the baby remains in the seat and does not fall out in case of an accident. A lot of car seats come with extra features that help to protect the baby’s head from getting hurt. You can also opt for seats that are adjustable in size. As your child grows, you can adjust the seat accordingly. This choice is extremely feasible for parents having more than one child.
There is another factor that you should take into account, i.e. the weight and age of the baby. If your baby weighs less than twenty pounds you should go for a rear-facing only seat. Make sure that the infant’s head is placed one inch below the head of the seat. This arrangement should continue till the baby weighs at least twenty pounds. After the weight increases you can opt for a front facing one. Ensure that the baby’s ears are positioned below the seat.
When buying infant/toddler/newborn car seats you must also be aware of the product specifications. Ideally, the product should come with a latch system that makes it extremely easy to install in a vehicle. Buying from a reputed manufacturer is a must as you must not compromise your child’s safety. A reputed company will always provide you with quality products.
Don’t make a random purchase just because the product has an attractive color or it looks good. Verify the credibility of the company, check out the customer reviews, and conduct a thorough research about the different models that are currently available. The best way to do this is to go online and search for websites that deal with these products.

BABY GATES. The words alone give you a sense that if you provide a gate, your little toddler will be safe and contained. I certainly agree. On the surface, this is what a baby gate will and should provide. But not all baby gates are created equal.
Let’s start with a few word choices that will get you the right equipment. A parent goes into a store and says to the clerk, “I’m here to buy a baby gate”. Remember, the baby is not going to use the gate, you are. Who knows what they’ll get.
Now try this, “I’m here to buy a gate for myself and my family to use to protect our baby”. You want a gate for an adult. You’re the one who has to use it every day. Now you have a shot at getting a gate that allows you, the parent, to use the equipment without stepping over it and cursing it every time you need to pass through it.
I have personally installed over a thousand gates in homes as a business. The one thing I always recommended was to choose the right gate for the job.
Place hard mounted gates at the top of the stairs. I actually prefer this hard mount gate in all areas as long as it is manageable; meaning the opening wasn’t so wide it had the gate swing half way across the room.
If you must have the pressure type in your doorways, choose something that takes hand coordination to open. In other words, the foot activated type is not what I would use. Trust me on this. Pressure gate damage can be worse than a gate that has been screwed into the wall.
One company stands out above the rest and that is a company by the name of KidCo. They provide a wide variety of gates for all types of situations from stairs to fireplaces. You can find them in baby stores and online. I recommend doing your homework before you buy.
My all time favorite would be the Safeway steel gate. It is the greatest for features and benefits. It’s a hard mount gate that is easy to install. Please follow instructions to the letter. I have installed this gate in a wide range of applications and always had the parent overjoyed with its performance. They also have mounting kits to assist you in your installation if needed.
The other gate I like is the hearth gate for fireplaces. It beats having to create a barrier out of furniture. I’ve seen parents get very creative when it comes to protecting the baby from danger. Doing it right is much easier.
Now I know I didn’t give you dimensions and every detail associated with the KidCo brand of gating, but you can get all that from them. Do it right and take my advice. Put safety products in that a pro would use. It’s the only gating I used for my own grandchildren.

We all want safety from the products we bring into our homes, especially when those products are for our babies and children. Not surprisingly baby seats for cars, tables, and strollers are at the height of our safety radar.
Browse products from brands you know and trust for baby seats that employ advanced design and cutting-edge features to ensure you have the safety you need. You’ll also want to consider several other factors when you shop for baby car seats.
Are you looking for a convertible high chair to use for years? Some of the latest high chairs adjust from infant size, through toddler and child sizes all the way up to adult. Are you looking for a baby car seat that goes from the back seat to the stroller in just a few snaps? Look for bassinets and carrycots designed to work within a savvy transportation system.
Baby Car Seats
Many manufacturers offer adaptable baby seats that can work with both your car seat and your stroller. Moms and dads that want to transfer a sleeping baby from the stroller to the car seat with minimal disruption will love these clever baby seats.
Convertible car seats are another option. While you won’t likely be able to strap these models into strollers, you’ll only shop once for up to 3 baby seats. Many convertible car seats adapt from rear- to front-facing design, then transform to boosters.
Whichever features you like, browse products from brands you trust including Britax, Child Source, Clek, Cosco, Eddie Bauer, Evenflo, Graco, Kolcraft, Maxi Cosi, Mia Moda, Rover Gear, Safety 1st, and Sunshine Kids. Find the safety options you need for peace of mind, from energy-absorbing foam and aluminum frames to 5-point harnesses and latch-equipped bases.
High Chair Booster Baby Seats
When shopping for baby seats that convert to boosters, it’s important to remember the major differences between models intended for cars and those intended for meal tables. Both styles of booster seats are designed to raise your child closer to the adult level for a seat belt or a table surface. But car boosters are more likely to be padded, featuring small arm rests. While table boosters are more likely to be a smooth, molded shape, possible with a food tray and a t-strap or other harness for legs.
In both cases, you’ll have a selection of baby seats available that convert from infant use up to toddler-sized designs. Look for 4-in1 high chairs and 3-in-1 baby car seats to find products that adjust and adapt as your child grows.
Convertible and adaptable baby seats make life easier, so why not add the comfort and simplicity of shopping online? When you skip the crowded malls and sales pressure, you’ll have more selection and better prices at an e-tailer instead of a retailer.

So your child is healthy, happy, and active…very active. It is time for a safety gate. It doesn’t matter whether your child is a crawler or a toddler; you need to keep him or her contained and safe.
Safety gates are an important part of your child-safety arsenal. It is just to easy for children in this curious stage to want to go to, feel, and touch what’s dangerous. Wondering over to the top of the stairs can mean disaster.
The safety gate is an important tool to ensure your child’s well being and to help your sanity. If you have ever followed a little one around and tried to keep him from breaking something or hurting himself, you know what I mean. One of these gates can also allow you to rest easy when you have to turn your head away from your child and do something.
Mounted Gates
Mounted gates are a little more expensive than pressure gates, and they take more work to install. The upside is that they are a lot sturdier. If I were doing it all over again, I would go with the mounted for the added security and safety. It is well worth the extra work drilling and screwing.
Pressure Gates
Pressure safety gates work by spring action poles that you squeeze, put in place and then let go. They work fairly well, are less expensive and a piece of cake to install. The only problem with these is that with the right amount of pressure against the gate and the right jerking motion, they can be knocked down. I would never depend on a pressure gate for stairwells.
Some Things To Look For In Your Gate!
If you are going to buy a gate for your child, why not buy one for your own convenience and for the child’s safety too. Here are some good features to look for and some things to watch out for:
Age. Beware of buying used pressure gates that date back to the 1980’s. Many of these were accordion-style gates that open up into diamond shapes. In 1985 these gates were taken off the market due to the danger they represent. A child’s head can easily get stuck in the diamond-shaped holes and there is always the danger of choking. Buy one that opens and shuts. Yes, they are a little more expensive, but this will save you having to take that tall step over the gate each time you want to exit or enter the room. I’m sure everyone else in your home will appreciate it also. Buy the right size. Take out your tape measurer and measure the opening the safety gate will be fitting in and then buy a gate made for that size. Do not cheat here, you will be wasting your time and endangering your child. Make sure the gate you buy is safety certified. If the gate you are considering does not have the safety certification seal on it, forget it. If a gate does not have the seal that means it does not comply with voluntary safety standards. Certification is a lot more important than the brand you buy or how nice it looks.
Now you’re ready get out there and shop for the best. A safety gate can cost between $30 and $70, so shop wisely.

The safety of a child is of utmost importance to the parents. When babies are traveling in cars, the Safety 1st car seat should protect them from injury in the case of a car accident. Child deaths in car accidents are mostly due to the side impact collision.
The Safety 1st child seat is a revolutionary car seat that uses Air Protect to reduce child fatalities in the event of a car accident where side impact is great. The design of the Safety 1st car seats uses both air and padding to greatly minimize the movement of children in the crash. The neck and head can be better protected against sustaining damaging injury when the child is secured properly in the Safety 1st car seat.
The convertible Safety 1st Complete Air child seats are designed for children between 5 and 50 pounds. The Safety 1st car seat has a 5 point harness and it is extremely easy for adults to buckle but not that easy for toddlers to figure out. There is a removable plastic cup holder that attaches to the left side as well.
Adjusting the unit is an important factor to car seats for the parents because getting the proper fit with the seat’s safety harness is crucial to it protecting your little one in case of an accident. With many baby seats, the release tab can be very hard to use. In order to tighten the straps, you have to pull the strap under the release tab. To loosen it you have to first engage the release tab, and then pull the harness straps out for extra room. The Complete Air’s release tab is very easy to operate. Being able to adjust the harness quickly and easily, especially when standing outside in the winter months is extremely important to most every parent out there.
