Taking care of minor things like keeping medicines away from your child's reach and not leaving him alone in a bath tub can ensure your child's safety.
- Keep medicines and cleaning products in containers with safety caps and locked away from children. This will prevent children from being poisoned.
- Always check bath water temperature with your wrist or elbow before putting your baby in to bathe. This will prevent burns to a baby's delicate skin.
- Never leave your child alone in the bathtub or near any water. This will prevent children from drowning.
- Don't leave your baby alone in a highchair. This will prevent injuries and deaths from the baby climbing out, falling, or sliding.
- Lock household cleaning products, knives, matches, and plastic bags away from children. This will prevent poisonings, bleeding injuries, burns, and suffocation.
