Keeping Kids Safe: Childproofing Tips for Your Childcare Center

Childproofing your childcare center is essential for keeping kids safe. Start by securing heavy furniture to walls to prevent tipping.

Use outlet covers and keep cords out of reach. Install safety gates at the top and bottom of stairs. Store hazardous materials, such as cleaning supplies, in locked cabinets.

Regularly inspect toys and equipment for wear and tear, and replace anything that poses a risk. By thoroughly childproofing, you create a safer environment for all children.

Actionable Points

• Conduct a room-by-room childproofing assessment to identify potential hazards.
• Create a maintenance log to track inspections and repairs of toys and equipment.
• Install corner protectors on furniture edges to prevent injuries.
