Baby Safety Checklist
In the bedroom:
Put your baby to sleep on her back in a crib with a firm, flat mattress and no
soft bedding underneath her. Follow this advice to reduce the risk of
suffocation and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). To prevent suffocation,
never put babies to sleep on adult beds.
Make sure your baby's crib is sturdy and has no loose or missing hardware. This
will prevent babies suffocating or strangling by becoming trapped between broken
crib parts.
Never place your baby's crib or furniture near window blind or curtain cords.
This will prevent babies from strangling on the loop of the cord. To prevent
falls, keep children away from windows.
In the bathroom:
Keep medicines and cleaning products in containers with safety caps and locked
away from children. This will prevent children from being poisoned.
Always check bath water temperature with your wrist or elbow before putting your
baby in to bathe. This will prevent burns to a baby's delicate skin.
Never, ever, leave your child alone in the bathtub or near any water. This will
prevent children from drowning. In addition, keep children away from all
standing water, including water in toilets, 5-gallon buckets, and pools.
In the kitchen:
Don't leave your baby alone in a highchair; always use all safety straps. This
will prevent injuries and deaths from the baby climbing out, falling, or sliding
under the tray. Be sure to use safety straps in strollers and baby swings.
Use your stove's back burners and keep pot handles turned to the back of the
stove. This will prevent deaths and injuries from burns. In addition, keep
children away from tablecloths, so they can't pull down hot foods or liquids on
themselves.
Lock household cleaning products, knives, matches, and plastic bags away from
children. This will prevent poisonings, bleeding injuries, burns, and
suffocation.
In other living areas:
Install smoke detectors on each floor of your home, especially near sleeping
areas; change the batteries each year. This will prevent deaths and injuries
from fires.
Use safety gates to block stairways and safety plugs to cover electrical
outlets. This will prevent injuries from falls and electric shocks.
Keep all small objects, including tiny toys and balloons, away from young
children. This will prevent choking and possible death.
