Safe Haven: How to Keep Your Kids Safe at Home


Your home is supposed to be a safe haven for you and your children. As a parent, you will stop at nothing to make sure your kids are safe, while they are at home and away. While you do not have much control over the later, you can take control of the security of your home and have peace of mind in knowing that you have taken action to prevent intruders from entering the home and also to prevent accidents that can lead to serious injuries. Here are some various ways to turn your house into a safe haven.


Cut Off Access to Hazards in the Kitchen

You kitchen is by far the most dangerous place for your child to be left unattended. Between the stove burners, the cleaning products under the sink, and the knives in the drawer, there are a number of dangers that you need to address. Make sure that you put locks on the cabinets and the drawers that hold sharp utensils and chemicals. Also make sure to store items that are larger up high, out of reach of the little ones who might decide to go exploring.

Childproofing the Outdoor Spaces

The inside of the home is not the only area you will need to focus on when you are childproofing. If you have toys outside, you need to make sure that you inspect the equipment for damage or sharp edges. You should also take time to put away your child's toys and clear the walkway each and every time your child is done playing.

The fence should have slats close enough together so that even the smallest child cannot slip through.
