Babyproofing checklist by room

A room-by-room pass catches hazards you'd otherwise miss. Use this as a starting checklist, then adapt it to your home and your child's stage.

Living room

Anchor the TV and furniture, cushion the coffee table, cover outlets, and secure cords.

Kitchen & bathroom

Lock cabinets with hazards, strap the oven and fridge, and store chemicals and medicines up high.

Nursery & stairs

Keep cords away from the crib, anchor the dresser, and hardware-mount a gate at the top of the stairs.
