Simple Tips for Childproofing a Home

Childproofing your home is a safety measure no family with little ones should go without.

To restrict access to stairs or off-limit areas, install a safety gate.

Open windows can be hazardous, so install secure window guards. Also, keep curtain cords out of reach so kids can’t get entangled.

Use childproof locks and latches to keep kids from opening closets, cabinets and drawers filled with dangerous chemicals or sharp objects.

Insert plug covers into power outlets to prevent accidental shock.

If you have a pool, enclose it in a tall fence with a gate that locks. Also consider installing alarms and a power safety cover.
