DealDash Contains the Baby
There are many ways to keep a baby safe from itself. Let’s look at the different ways to keep a baby safe.
As the mom of a 9 month old baby I am constantly worried that he is getting himself into trouble when I step away for even a moment to answer the phone or check on something in the oven. Luckily, there are many ways to keep babies safe and sound from harm these days. Here are a few ways to keep your house baby-proofed and safe for everyone.
The number one way to keep your baby safe is constant vigilance, of course, but there are just a few times a day that you might need to leave your baby alone for a few minutes at a time. When you need to leave your baby to check the mail, answer the phone, or any other 5 minute activity then you should utilize a baby monitor. There are different types of baby monitor:
- Classic – You can hear the baby, and when you press a button you can speak to the baby.
- Video – You can see and hear the baby, and when you press a button you can speak to the baby. Some have other features such as room temperature, plays lullabies, and night vision.
- Smartphone – With these monitors, they do everything that the video monitor does, except instead of having to stay within 100 yards of the house you can check your baby from anywhere using your smartphone. This is a great monitor to have if you leave your baby at home with a babysitter, or if you have a nanny.
Another way to keep your baby safe is by investing in a Pack N’ Play, playpen, or play yard. These are great to have if you are at home within sight of your baby but need to keep them contained for a short period of time, such as when you are cooking, cleaning, or doing a project. If you use one of these, make sure that all of the toys that you put in the baby containment unit are baby-safe and non-chokable.
Lastly, be sure to baby-proof your electrical outlets and keep your phone chargers out of reach! Electrical outlets pose a danger to babies, especially if they are in the stage where they like to lick and chew on everything. Phone charger cords can be a dangerous choking and electrocution hazard.
