Baby-proofing your home should be on your list of to-dos to ensure a safe environment for your little bundle of joy. To help you get started, Handyman Connection® of Winter Park shares some of the first few things that you should take care of.
Look out for any sharp corners or edges that your baby may bump into once they start crawling or walking. Consider adding baby corner guards to prevent cuts, scrapes, and other accidents.
Keep your baby from reaching accident-prone areas like the stairs by installing safety gates. You might want to opt for those that are actually bolted to the wall since they’re more secure and stable than pressure gates.
These can prevent your baby from pinching their fingers by doors that often swing open and close.
Use baby-safe plugs to cover all unused outlets, and always check for appliances that are currently not in use and can be unplugged until you need them.
Ensure that dangerous items like cutlery, glass and heavy pots and pans are out of your baby’s or toddler’s reach. Don’t forget to keep chemical cleaners in a safe space too. If putting these things in a higher cabinet is not possible, you can opt for drawer and cabinet safety locks instead.
Adjust your water heater, and keep the temperature at a comfortable warm level to avoid burning your child’s skin. Experts typically recommend setting the temperature at 120 degrees or lower.
