Baby gate installed in Scotch Plains, NJ Stairs are difficult for children to master, but a baby’s curiosity has no limits, and that’s why infants as young as 6 months old may try to crawl up stairs. Unfortunately at that stage of their development they are typically not coordinated enough to do so without falling, and that’s why baby gates are always required in these kinds of situations. Child safety gates should be installed as soon as your son or daughter starts to sit up, as crawling and walking will shortly follow, and the house needs to be already baby proofed by the time this happens. When your child is around 15, or 16 months old, by which stage he would have been walking competently for a few months already, start showing them how to walk up and down steps with your assistance. Progressively they will learn to climb staircases while holding on to the handrails. By the time your child is two years old, he should be able to walk up and down stairs by himself. Although this may seem like a safe time to remove your child safety gate, we recommend to keep it in place until at least 3 years of age. Pictured below is a gate Baby Safe Homes New Jersey, recently installed in Scotch Plains. As can be seen, this white and elegant safety gate was mounted at the bottom of the staircase, and securely prevents children from climbing up the stairs and possible hurting themselves. Please note that other than being practical, this baby gate was also installed with no hole clamps to protect the wooden banister’s, and will therefore leave no damage to the furniture. For all […]

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.Elena F., M.D., Scripps Clinic Pediatrics
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.Raquel, Zach and Noah
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.Keely B
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!Stacie S
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.Shakha G.
