Baby Proofing & Child Proofing Services
Don’t worry – this is a great time to bring in an expert. If you don’t use a pro you may find yourself buying cabinet locks that don’t fit within your cabinet door frames (I did) or toilet seat locking contraptions that fall right off (I did that too). Professional child proofing also helps to expand your awareness about in-home safety and is really convenient.
I used a baby proofing service. A consultant came to my home and did a complete home inspection. We then sat down and reviewed the list of potential hazards in my home. He identified a few items that I hadn’t even considered. At this stage, I could pay à la carte for the consultant to install the safety items or I could do it on my own. From start to finish the whole process was less than 2 hours. Needless to say, it was a convenient and cost effective means to a safe home.
