The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto offers these tips:

• Use safety gates at the top and bottom of stairs. Don't use a pressure gate at the top of the stairs. It can topple if your child leans on it.
• Keep medicines and cleaning products locked up.
• Make sure there's no furniture near windows or balcony rails.
• Keep large toys and stuffed animals out of the crib or playpen. Your baby could use them to climb over the side.
• Don't let your child stand up in the high chair; use the safety strap.
• Use the safety strap to secure your baby in a shopping cart.
