Frequently asked questions
When should I start baby-proofing my home?
It’s best to start before your baby becomes mobile, typically around 4-6 months, when they begin to roll and crawl.
What are some essential baby-proofing products I should buy?
Outlet covers, cabinet and drawer locks, furniture anchors to prevent tipping, and baby gates for stairs and dangerous rooms.
My baby just started crawling! Is it too late to baby-proof?
It’s never too late, but you’ll need to act fast! Crawling means immediate access to floors, low cabinets, and outlets. Prioritize high-risk areas first (stairs, kitchens, bathrooms, furniture that could tip) and then work on other areas as quickly as possible. In the meantime, constant supervision is even more critical.
