Safety & Childproofing


Car Seat Safety

A car seat can save your baby's life in an accident. But car seats aren't always easy to install and use – especially for sleep-deprived parents. Let us help with step-by-step videos, information, and tips on using car seats on the road and in the sky.

Childproofing for Your Baby

Keeping your baby safe at home gets more challenging as your little one starts moving. Be prepared by childproofing the nursery, kitchen, bathroom, and other areas before your baby's scooting, reaching, and rolling.

Emergency Preparedness

It's not fun to plan for the worst, but as a parent it's important to be ready for a natural disaster or other emergency. Learn about the emergency supplies you should keep on hand, setting up an escape plan, communicating during an emergency, and more.

SIDS

SIDS, or sudden infant death syndrome, is the leading cause of death in the United States for babies between 1 month and 1 year old. The good news is that there's a lot you can do to reduce your baby's risk of SIDS, from putting him to sleep on his back to using a fan in his room.

Safety at Home

Home may feel like the safest place in the world, but it's full of hidden hazards for babies. Learn what to be on the lookout for, from objects small enough to choke on to furniture that can tip.

Safety Out & About

Learn precautions to take whether you're heading to the beach, the pool, the playground, or just around the block. We have information on keeping your baby safe in the sun, avoiding dehydration, and more.
