Taking care of your children may seem like a simple task until you actually try to do it. Today, there are many instances of children sent to emergency rooms for being involved in all kinds of accidents inside their homes. No matter how much you perform “child-proofing” in the home, accidents can happen and your child’s curiosity doesn’t really help much.
Before something tragic happens, you have to make sure that your child is truly protected even when you’re not around. You don’t need to tie your children up or keep them locked inside a room to truly protect them. Here are some helpful tips for every parent out there.
​
  1. Do not take your eyes of your children if they are swimming or are anywhere near a body of water.
  2. Keep your medicine in a place where your children cannot reach them. This includes daily medication and other vitamins that you take. Take note of all kinds of loose pills inside the home and make sure to put them in the medicine cabinet.
  3. Remove any type of objects from your baby’s crib. Make sure that your baby sleeps on his back and that they are alone in the crib.
  4. Create your own fire drill where you teach your children what to do in case of a fire and where they need to exit.
  5. Place safety gates both at the top and the bottom of your house’s stairs. If possible, you can attach them to your walls for added security.
  6. Place a smoke alarms as well as carbon monoxide alarms in each level of the house. Make sure to replace the batteries twice a year to make sure that they are working.
  7. Clear your home of toxic and chemical cleaning product that your children might try to drink.
  8. Program your state’s help lines into your home phone. You can also post these numbers around the house where people can easily see them.
  9. Mount your televisions to the wall to make sure that they don’t accidentally fall over your children while they are playing.
  10. Secure your windows with guards so your child won’t fall out of them.

Your children are naturally playful and inquisitive so you have to be the one to protect them from potential harm. To help you with home improvements, get the best home insurance policy from a trusted insurer.
