Fire Safety

As a parent, you’ll never be able to prevent every potential hazard, but you can take many precautions to guard against such hazards to help keep your children safe. Accidental fires are one of those misfortunes that can spell disaster if you and your children aren’t prepared. The first step in baby fire safety is fire prevention. This involves such things as keeping up to date with any potential recalls with household appliances that could ignite a fire, checking for frayed or damaged electrical wires and if you’re going to use a fireplace, making sure it is up to code. You should always check with your local fire department or other fire safety resources to make sure that you take all the possible preventive steps to ensure optimal fire safety.

Fire Safety

For your children’s safety, a smoke alarm should be installed in every room and tested regularly. It is also a good idea to have electrical outlet caps to keep children from possibly sticking ... something in the outlet that could ignite a fire or shock them. Brands such as KidCo and Mommy’s Helper have many standard outlet covers, so you’ll be able to plug up all those unused outlets.

If there ever is a fire, you’ll want to be prepared with a fire escape plan that the whole family is aware of. A fire escape ladder, such as the X-IT Fire Escape Ladder, can be a great addition to any fire escape route. Especially if you have a multi-story a home, a fire escape ladder that is child-friendly should be easily accessible just in case.

The world recognized Foundations brand has taken baby fire safety very seriously and developed a first responder evacuation crib and accessories.

While we’re on the subject of fire, it is a good idea to talk about baby fireplace safety. The fireplace is a dangerous place for baby for many reasons – not just fire. It is best to keep baby separated from the fireplace. There are fireplace guards and gates that will help keep your children separated from the danger. KidCo, for example, manufacturers a Fireplace Door Guard that protects little fingers from injury in bi-fold and sliding fireplace doors. The HearthGate from KidCo is also the perfect gate for installing around any fireplace, wood-burning stove or barbeque and keeping baby a safe distance from the fire, while also protecting them from the sharp, rough surfaces of the hearths.

If you’re looking for a more cushiony way to protect baby from those sharp fireplace hearth edges, you might want to consider fireplace hearth pads or bumpers. KidKusion’s Fireplace Bumper Pad is a flame-retardant foam padding that protects children from hard hearth edges.
