Parents worry endlessly about how to protect their children from stranger abduction and violence, but many overlook one of the biggest threats to their children’s safety and well-being — their own home. Experts say that children between the age of 1 & 4 are more likely to be killed by fire, burns, drowning, choking, poisoning, falls or by a stranger’s violence.

About 25,000 children are injured or killed each year by dangers right in their own home. That’s why it’s so important to carefully childproof your home.

Because childproofing and other safety measures can seem overwhelming, we’ve created three checklists that let you see at a glance what to do before your baby arrives, before your baby crawls, and before your baby starts toddling and climbing. You’ll also find safety tips in our articles about childproofing your nursery, kitchen, and bathroom.

You’ll find all kinds of gadgets for sale that can really help your home childproofing efforts. Or, if you can afford it, you can hire a professional childproofer (with risk assessment skills / MOM registered Safety Officer) to choose and install safety devices for you. But keep in mind the safety gadgets are no substitute for your eyes and ears.
