Childproofing Your Home
Your home really needs to be childproofed from the moment
you bring baby home from the hospital. With just the blink
of any eye, baby will be rolling, crawling & then walking,
and it's better to be prepared than finding out the hard

-Always open the gates to go through, don't climb over

blinds where the cords are exposed
-Make sure winter heaters & fireplaces are safely concealed behind fire grates
-Install a lock onto the toilet lid
-Keep First Aid supplies handy at all times
This is by no means an exhaustive list and each family
needs to assess their home environment both inside & out.
