Some Basic Safety Tips

- Place a working smoke detector in or near your child's bedroom
- Make sure that window guards are securely in place to prevent a child from falling out the window.
Tips for the changing table
- Use a safety belt on the changing table
- Keep baby powder and other supplies out of baby's reach when changing
- Never leave a child unattended on a changing table
- Put carpet or a nonskid rug beneath the crib and changing table
Crib Tips
- Remove bumper pads, toys, pillows, and stuffed animals from the crib by the time baby can pull up to stand
- Remove all crib gyms, hanging toys, and decorations from the crib by the time baby can get up on his hands and knees
- Make sure slots on crib are no more than 2 3/8 inches apart
- Make sure the night-light is not near or touching drapes or a bedspread where it could start a fire
