Introduction
Your baby's safety is a top priority. From the very first months, it's essential to babyproof your home to prevent accidents. Here's our complete guide to the essentials for a safe environment.
In the Baby's Room
1. The Secure Bed
Choose a bed that meets European standards with bars spaced no more than 4.5 to 6.5 cm apart. The mattress should be firm and fit the bed perfectly, with no gaps on the sides.
2. Bed Rail
For children transitioning to a big bed, a safety barrier prevents nighttime falls.
3. Baby monitor with camera
A video baby monitor allows you to monitor your baby remotely and react quickly if needed.
In the Bathroom
4. Non-slip mat
Essential in the bathtub to prevent baby from slipping during bath time.
5. Bath Thermometer
Always check the water temperature (ideally 37°C) to avoid burns.
6. Faucet Protection
A foam tap protector prevents bumps and burns if the baby touches the tap.
In the Kitchen and the Living Room
7. Safety Barriers
Install barriers at the top and bottom of the stairs, and to block access to certain dangerous rooms.
8. Socket Covers
Protect all accessible electrical outlets with secure outlet covers.
9. Door and Drawer Locks
Prevent baby from opening cupboards containing dangerous products or fragile objects.
10. Corner Protectors
Install corner protectors on furniture to prevent head injuries.
General Security
11. Smoke Detector
Install smoke detectors on every floor of your house and test them regularly.
12. Window Locks
Secure all windows with devices that prevent them from opening fully.
13. Cable Management
Secure and store all electrical cables out of reach to avoid risks of strangulation or falling.
Important Tips
Never leave your baby unattended on a changing table, in the bath, or on a sofa.
Keep small objects that could be swallowed out of reach.
