Get your home ready for your new baby with these baby-proofing home tips!
Congratulations on your bundle of joy! As you prepare for your little one’s arrival, it’s important to ensure that they’re safe. Despite constant vigilance, it’s still important to baby-proof your home. Check out these baby-proofing home tips to make sure that your baby will stay out of harms way.
Secure Your Televisions & Large Items.
From televisions to tables and shelves, these big items are heavy and can easily topple over should your baby climb and grab nearly everything in your home. Make sure to secure these large, heavy items down to reduce their risk of falling. Use restraints and brackets to help keep them in place.
Keep Cords High.
Our digital lives require lots of cords and wires. However, these cords are dangerous when it comes to your children. Make sure that you strategically place them so that they’re out of reach. Put them behind or on top of furniture to reduce access.
Cover Outlets.
Electricity and babies don’t mix. Curious little ones may get into trouble when it comes to your home’s electrical outlets. Make sure that you take extra care to your outlets and cover your outlets. Whether you choose to use a traditional plastic cover or a new high-tech cover with a sliding door, make sure that you don’t leave any outlets exposed.
Secure Cabinets & Drawers.
From pots and pans to silverware and glassware to pens and scissors, your drawers and cabinets pose lots of dangers to your kiddos. Make sure to reduce their access to these dangers by putting safety locks on all your cabinets and drawers. That way they’re unable to get into trouble.
Make sure that your little one is well taken care of and be sure to invest in
life insurance.
