Category: Child Safety Hazards

Infant and Child Safety Hazards include a range of potential dangers that can affect young children due to their curiosity and developmental stages. For infants, hazards often involve choking risks from small objects or foods, unsafe sleeping environments like loose bedding that can lead to suffocation, and falls from elevated surfaces such as changing tables. As children grow, they face additional risks including sharp edges on furniture, electrical outlets, and access to toxic substances or cleaning products. Outdoor dangers, such as unsupervised pools or playground equipment, also pose significant threats. Ensuring safety involves implementing measures like childproofing homes, using safety gates, securing furniture to walls, and teaching children about hazards in their environment to prevent accidents and injuries.
