Baby Safety
This is a most important subject obviously. Until you have a small child about the place, you probably have never realised just how careful you have to be. Making sure there are no sharp objects around. Like china ornaments or your favourite glass object. Getting rid of square sharp cornered glass tables, or maybe coffee tables made of some kind of wood, but with a non baby friendly shape. Stairs needs a gate. The front door area or garden if it leads out on to the road is also a good idea to have a gate. Make sure when baby starts toddling around that they can’t get into the kitchen with boiling pots and pans or all the dangers there are in that area. Put a gate up at the entrance to there to.
It will not take you long to adapt to the fact that you have now got to think about safety a lot more than you ever did before. Simple things in life, now become a task… but we all adapt quite quickly…
It will be worth the sacrifice, and in a short time you can bring them all out again, as baby gets older.

Babies Safety
This is a very important topic which we thought we should talk about. Looking after babies and children is like walking through a mind field. There are so many aspects to think about. We would like to help out and give you new mums and dads some advice.
When you are pregnant and purchasing your basic requirements you should include the some of the following items:
1. A thermometer that goes in babies ear or mouth
2. A thermometer of mat that changes colour in the bath – to let you know the water is too hot.
3. Saftey gates for the staircase, and possibly for rooms like the kitchen – where there is very hot things.
4. A harness to put round them when they are out with you learning to walk.
5. A car seat with safety attachments. Always buckle up in the car.
6. Take away glass coffee tables or delicate ornaments around your home. Try and make sure your home is baby friendly. If you have very sharp corners on furniture make sure you are with baby for the first months.
7. Never leave a child unattended in the bathroom.
8. Never leave a child unattended in the kitchen with boiling saucepans.
9. Be mindful of the iron – it is another accident just waiting to happen.
10. Generally – you will find you need eyes in the back of your head, Basically you cannot afford to take your concentration off of them for a moment.
11. Keep a lock on the front gate and back garden. Never leave anything unlocked like a shed or gate so they can just wander into the road.
12. A baby monitor so you can hear them at all times in the nursery, or any room they are in.
We will be talking next time to you about Baby Clothes.
Enough doom and gloom – but babies safety is tiresome to say the least. Just try and be sensible and enjoy your new little munchkin. That’s all for now.
