CHILDPROOFING SERVICE OPTIONS
KINDLY NOTE:
Baby Proof is based in Roodepoort. I currently only do callouts and installations in this area and surrounding areas within a 40 km radius.
IMPORTANT NOTIFICATION:
Unfortunately, I no longer do quotes or installations based on photo’s, videos and measurements provided by clients.
I am committed to doing all assessments and installations myself, with my assistant.
Due to the nature of my business. I do not send strangers to your home.
You deal with me from start to finish, for complete peace of mind.
With that said, there are just not enough hours in the day for me to get back to each individual enquiry, with its own challenges.
I trust this provides clarity regarding my situation. Kindly accept my sincere regret.
An assessment and detailed discussion at your home is necessary to ascertain:
♥ Which childproofing products are suitable.
♥ To tackle and provide solutions to home design challenges that pose a danger.
♥ To share my knowledge and experience with you.
♥ To take accurate measurements where necessary.
A home assessment is a prerequisite to using my baby proofing service.

For clients outside of this region or who wish to do the babyproofing themselves:
I have written a multitude of VERY USEFUL ARTICLES on my “ Safety Tips Blog ” to guide you, taking the liberty of sharing my product knowledge and industry experience. This is to ensure that the necessary safety precautions are taken and that the babyproofing products are installed correctly.
All child safety products have detailed descriptions, images, and installation instructions if you scroll down the product page – be sure to read this before purchasing any product.
This is to assist overwhelmed parents in making an informative decision, before finalising their purchase.
The hassle and costs of returning products can be prevented by reading and understanding the products before you shop online.

STEP 1 IN THE CHAIN OF SURVIVAL IS PREVENTING INJURY
Medical Professionals only administer the FOURTH and FINAL link in the chain of survival. This means 75% of your child’s chances of survival fall into your or your child minders hands.
Without making your child’s environment a safe one, getting up to date on safety, learning how to administer CPR, and keeping EMS numbers in accessible places at all times – even a well-trained and experienced medic has little hope of saving a child’s life.
SOUTH AFRICA'S #1 CHILDPROOFING SPECIALIST
With parents’ busy lifestyles and with 85% of South African parents both being breadwinners, Baby Proof SA has become a life saver for many.
Having a dedicated Nanny to watch over your precious cargo at home is a luxury not many can afford. Often parents are forced to ask their housekeeper to look after the baby as well, this can be a daunting task.
Baby proofing, when done professionally provides a fixed solution to help keep your baby safe. Childproofing products have evolved over the years and there is a solution to just about every possible problem area.
All products installed by Baby Proof have been tried and tested, narrowing products available on the retail market down to those that are practical and that do not compromise on the safety of your child or pet.
In combining experience, knowledge and out of-the-box thinking, Baby Proof SA will leave you feeling confident that your little one is protected.
THE GOAL OF CHILDPROOFING
The goal of childproofing your home is not to turn your home into a prison-like setting that completely inhibits a child’s ability to explore and develop. Rather, childproofing should balance factors such as safety, aesthetics, cost, child supervision level, and liveability.
Each home is different; as well as each room in your home being different. Baby Proof has been owner run for 17 years by Michelle Jacobs, SA’s renowned Childproofing Expert, who has seen and conquered many home-design challenges that pose potential life-threatening injuries to babies, toddlers, and pets.
WHEN TO BABY PROOF
Baby-proofing has never been this easy! From identifying potential hot spots in your home; choosing child safety products specific to your needs; to installing these devices properly & effectively – we cover it all!
So when your little one’s just cruising for a bruising, our uncompromising service will cushion their fall. By Baby proofing not only will you gain awareness of the possible dangers in your home but you will obtain solutions to help keep your Baby Safe.
On average babies start to crawl at 8 months, which means many get moving even earlier. A crawling baby will soon start pulling up too, which means counters and other surfaces are no longer out of reach. We, as adults take a lot of things in our home for granted, because we have learnt to handle them. Getting down on all fours helps us see the world in a new way & opens up our eyes to potential dangers we may not have thought about. This simple exercise will really help you recognize the dangers that exist for children & you’ll be well on your way to a healthy & safety conscious frame of mind.
DISCLAIMER:
Important Notice:
Please note that under no circumstances does any environmental modification or safety device installed act as a substitute for an informed caregiver. Adult supervision is ALWAYS a prerequisite when infants & children are present – with or without baby proofing. Safety Products installed by Baby Proof must only be regarded as a supplementary measure.
