Make Safety
a Priority

Prevention Matters

According to Safe Kids Worldwide, 3.5 million children in the United States visit a hospital emergency room for accidental injuries that happen at home.

These injuries are preventable with the right safeguards.

Child proofing the home protects babies and toddlers – while still allowing them to explore and learn.

“At Safe Start, every home we baby proof is our home, and every child we keep safe is our own”

Alisa Bishop, Founder

Safety Simplified

Let’s Talk About Baby Proofing

Our child proofing experts offer custom safety solutions tailored to a family’s specific needs and the layout of the home.

Child safety gates are the most impactful safety solution. Our gates are durable, easy-to-operate, and match the décor of your home.

If you want to keep chaos in your home to a minimum, we recommend securing all cabinets and drawers within a toddler’s reach.

Seventy seven percent of tip-over fatalities occur in children ages six years old and younger. Furniture should be secured for many years.

Self-closing outlet covers protect electrical sockets. Power strip and cord covers keep wires organized and out of baby’s reach.
