It’s been a few years since i last baby proofed the house, and now it seems, its time for it again.  It never fails, that the one thing that your forget to make safe, is the one thing that they will hurt them self or go for, over and over again.  Here is my list of necessary things to be baby proofed, again.

Covers on all the outlets – babies like to stick things there all the time, toys, fingers, sometimes they try to eat it

Latches on any drawers and cabinets with dangerous, or stuff in there that you don’t want the kids to get into

R ubber or plastic edges on sharp corners- a light bump on a sharp corner is an instant black eye or lump

Secure Unstable things to walls, so they don’t fall on the baby when they pull or climb on them, like- bookshelves, standing lamps, mirrors etc

Gates on the stairs- because a baby falling down the stairs in not good for anyone

For me, the hardest thing that you have to do to keep the baby safe, is keeping all of the tiny little things off the floor.  Especially when you have a toddler that plays with barbies and all their little stuff…
