  1. Limit the items in your child’s crib; you don’t want an accident to happen while you’re not there.
  2. Learn to use your child’s car seat the right way.
  3. Make sure you have both a working smoke alarm and a carbon monoxide alarm on every level of your home, and in all sleeping areas.
  4. Place your baby’s crib and other furniture away from windows and blinds.
  5. Set your water heater to 120 F to avoid scalds during those wash-ups and baths.
