This section is dedicated to the safety of our kids, the most important asset that we have. “SUPERVISION” is the magic word when it comes to the child safety. Most of the childhood accidents are avoidable if we can supervise the little ones by ourselves and with the help of the kids safe technology at our hands. Having said that, it takes only a split second for the accident to happen. Only way to avoid that is the preventitive steps and making kids surroundings child safe. In the current market there are childsafe products available for any given situation. In most of the developed world there are kids safe centres that provide education and guidelines to the parents free of cost. If you dont have one of the kids safe centre’s around you than talk to your child specialist they can give you good advice. Another good place to look around will be your local child care centre because by the law they are supposed to be completely child safe. We will try to put as much information as we can to help you, but we will suggest you to buy some good kids safety books.

Here’s some general safety tips for in and around the house and we will get into more details as we go:

• Put locks on any cupboard or drawer where a child can reach
• Don’t carry your baby at the same time as hot food or drinks
• Don’t lift hot food or drinks near your child
• Use placemats rather than table cloths, a crawling child can pull or tug on a table cloth and pull everything on themselves
• Use door stoppers to prevent trapped fingers
• Protect children from sharp corners by using corner cushions
• Don’t leave any container filled with water in kids reach, even a few cintimeters of water can drown the kids
• Keep all small objects out of baby’s reach, keep the floor clean, small items are the biggest choking hazard
• Always supervise children in the bath, dont leave them in the bath unattended
• Make the rubbish bin inaccessible to a child
• Keep the bathroom and toilet door closed
• Fit stair gates at both the top and bottom of stairs. You can use the same gates to close the kitchen entry as well
