Why Baby Proofing is Important
With parents’ busy lifestyles and with 85% of South African parents both being breadwinners; Baby proofing 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 properly provides a fixed solution to help keep your baby safe. Baby safety products have evolved over the years and there is a solution to just about every possible problem area.
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 16 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. 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 will leave you feeling confident that your little one is protected.
SAVING TIME, MONEY, YOUR SANITY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY POSSIBLE TRAUMA
Michelle Jacobs, owner and founder of Baby Proof SA, has already done extensive research on Baby Proofing – keeping up with the latest products – allowing her to carry out a thorough inspection highlighting potential dangers in & around your home; dangers that may have been overlooked by the untrained eye.
During a baby proof consultation, you will not only gain awareness of potential dangers in & around your home but obtain solutions to help keep your little one/s safe as she shares valuable tips, introduces you to childproofing products that work & suggests small changes/alterations that can make a FUNDAMENTAL difference to your home & safety.
KNOWLEDGE IS EVERYTHING!
During a home assessment by Michelle, you will be introduced to a range of childproofing products; most of which you were unaware even existed. At Baby Proof we stay abreast of all the latest safety products & issues-affording you peace of mind.
Once we have completed the consultation; we will provide you with a detailed estimate on what it will cost to Baby Proof your home effectively as well as installing the products for you. Products such as safety gates; balustrade and banister safeguards, magnetic child locks; oven door guards, are difficult to install; add to that, once you have bought the device there is no guarantee that the product will even fit the fixture you intended to use it for. Finding the time, tools & the know-how can sometimes seem overwhelming. We install these devices properly, giving you the assurance that your safety product will work effectively from the start.
In the end, our childproofing service will end up saving you time, money, stress & even possible trauma.
