Hello ladies! So my baby has started crawling and I wasn’t expecting it to happen so soon, she’s also holding on to furniture so she can get up. I need to safety proof the house - please can someone tell me where the best place to buy the following & also am I missing anything? (Im in the uk)
Safety gates
Covers for sockets
Safety locks for cupboards/oven etc
Also, I was thinking of buying a playpen- does anyone have any suggestions please!
TIA 😀

I’ve heard not to use socket covers, apparently it isn’t any safer and can cause problems. Just what I’ve heard from electricians ☺️ we’ve just done drilled in safety gate at top of stairs, pressure gate at bottom and safety locks. Maybe wall attachments for any heavy furniture they might try climb? We were going to do our kalax units.

Hi oh I had no idea about this! Thank you! Will look into wall attachments too - need them for chest of drawers etc xx

I’ve heard don’t need socket covers but it may be if electrics are up to date? So might be worth checking
I have a plastic play pen so a lot cheaper and I have it in the kitchen

Ahh I’ll look into this!! Thank you! X
