  • It only takes 2.5 cm of water for a child to drown. Take all precautions to make sure that your child is not left unattended around any water.
  • Never leave your child unsupervised in the bathroom. Make sure you accompany them into the bathroom every time to prevent injuries.

Add a Childproof Lock to the Door.

The easiest way to prevent a bathroom injury is to make sure your child can’t get in there without you! Your door lever lock should be on the outside of the door to prevent anyone from being locked inside. Of course, you should still childproof the rest of the bathroom in case the door is left unlatched. Install Door Hinge Protectors & Foam door stoppers to prevent slamming little fingers
