some helpful advice
Baby Gates
Look for a straight top edge and rigid mesh screen.
Install securely in door or stairway.
Back Carriers
Use only after infant is 4-5 months old, when the baby's neck is strong enough to support its head. Look for padding over frame.
Carrier Seats
Never place carrier on a surface above the floor.
Changing Tables
Never turn away from the table.
High Chairs
Always restrain your child:
The tray is not a restraining device!
Pacifiers
Never tie one around your child's neck.
Play Pens
Beware of drop-side mesh ones.
Make sure mesh has a tight weave.
Make sure wooden pens have narrow spaces between slats.
Walkers
Look for a wide base, plastic sleeves over springs.
Always keep your baby in view and away from stairs.
