Baby Safety Tips

Here is a list of few important tips for your baby safety that would be highly valuable for new parents.

Safe Sleeping Steps

Put babies to sleep on their back in a safe sleep space not on their tummy or their side. This is meant to be the safest position for babies to sleep. Make sure your baby’s head and face are uncovered while they are sleeping. Don’t over-dress your baby at sleeping time, this may cause overheating. Also, putting fluffy toys in baby’s sleeping space may sometimes suffocate them.

Avoid smoking

Smoking is injurious to health. Smoking during pregnancy or after delivery may increase the risk of many harmful diseases like SIDS, SUDI etc.  Don’t let anyone smoke in the same room as your baby. There is a strong link in smoking and SUDI even when someone smoke away from their babies.

Feed At Bed Time

During mid night, babies will try to get attention, when they are hungry. To keep your baby satisfied by feeding them before bedtime. One good feed for your baby before putting her to sleep for night, will help your baby to sleep for longer stretches until she gets hungry again. This will encourage her to sleep longer in the nights more comfortable and safe.

Clothing

Clothing is one of the most important factors that you need to check as many children are sensitive to certain materials. If you are using a new kind of material check them for any sign of allergy or rashes on their body.

Change a Baby’s Diaper Properly

Change baby’s diaper when it is grubby otherwise it could lead to rashes. You should be very careful while changing them. Firstly make sure that your baby is ready to pick up and then hold them carefully while pulling the diaper off. Be gentle in lifting them up while they are sleeping.

Pick Up Children Correctly

Picking up children in a wrong way can hurt their back. There is a simple step to pick up the children. Get closer to the child, keep your back straight, take your child close to you and stand. If these steps are done correctly, will help to prevent any harm to your kid’s beckoning.

Many people put-off baby proofing because they do not have the time- there is absolutely no excuse for that. I have taken care of patients who have their babies fall down stairs, choke on door stoppers, and pull down furniture onto themselves. This can be prevented. And the service is very affordable- the only additional cost versus doing it yopurself is the labor cost.Thank you to Baby Safe Homes for providing an excellent service to me and my patients.

Hi all. I just wanted to let you know that we recently used Baby Safe Homes to childproof our house. More than a few friends referred us to this company and I can’t speak highly enough it. They came to our house for a consultation, made recommendations, and did immediate installation. He was very honest and didn’t pressure us to buy or install anything we didn’t feel we needed to. If you have an infant ready to crawl (as we do) I’d highly recommend Baby Safe Homes.

Thank you very much for making my house a safer place for my twin girls. You did a wonderful job! Everything works great, and I’m starting to appreciate all the devices even more as the girls get better at getting into things. I will certainly recommend Baby Safe Homes to all of my friends with kids and my patients.

Baby Safe Homes was an absolute pleasure to work with. I felt so overwhelmed by the process of babyproofing I procrastinated until my 8 month old was on the go. Within a few short days of my initial call Baby Safe Homes came out, gave me the guidance I needed, and proofed my entire house with top of the line products all within a 2 1/2 hour period. I can actually get more done now without constantly stopping to chase my son!

Thank you for helping us babyproof our new home. I loved that you gave us all the options and didn’t push anything on us and allowed us to pick what we felt was necessary. Also, I couldn’t believe how quick everything was finished. Within a few days of speaking with you, you came out and installed everything in just 2 hours! Our stair gates look and work great! I wish I had heard of you before and I will definitely recommend you to all of my family and friends. Thanks again.
