In fact, it doesn’t matter whether they are 18 months or 18 years, we always have their best interests in mind – even if they don’t listen anymore!
However, the home environment can present many dangers to young children. Take curtains and blinds, for example. Although they look great in a room, there’s a risk that kids can hurt themselves if they play around with them.
As such, what are the measures that you can take to ensure that they are safe in your home? Let us explain.
Keep your windows child-safe: Keep babies’ cots well away from windows and ensure that all blind and curtain cords are out of reach. This may mean not placing furniture next to windows – toddlers love climbing!
Child safety devices: You could install a safety device that adds another level of protection. This allows cords to be tightly wound around a cleat and out of reach, alternatively you could opt for electronically operated blinds.
Reduce the hazard: It is important to be aware at all times of child safety around the home. An extra safety measure is the installation of a safety device that either removes the cord loop or limits access to cords. A tension device (either a chain tensioner or cleat) can be anchored to the wall or floor so that young children cannot play with cords or put them around their neck.
Selecting the right curtain fabric type: There is no doubt that kids love to pull and tug on items around your home. While you can tell them off as many times as you like, it might be a good idea to invest in stronger fabric type for curtains in a kid’s bedroom.
For example, sheers and voiles – while they look great in a baby’s nursery, these fabrics are too lightweight and prone to damage especially when your youngest becomes mobile and wants to practice their climbing skills! In a kid’s bedroom, you’ll want a strong fabric that can take the odd pull and is also easy to clean should they get dirty.
If you need help, give us a call on 0800 579 0501 and we can offer helpful advice. We can also provide safety devices to keep your blind cords out of reach.

I am a very gorgeous, loveable and confident old girl. I am nicknamed Silent Bob, as I don't meow often. I am currently in foster care with my amazing foster mum and here's what she has to say about me; "Bobbi is a lovely healthy cat with energy and spirit that belies her age and circumstances. She shows a mix of confidence and caution, possibly the result of developing independence at an early age. She is wonderful company without being needy and she eats and drinks well and is fully house trained. She loves to be around, either sitting on my lap or the end of my chair and immediately follows me to bed at night. Although Bobbi is a lap cat, she's not a cuddly cat and likes only a little patting, preferably around head and face. She does also have some indemnities her new family will need to be made aware of, but we can chat about this when you meet her “

Sarah from Mount Victoria
It's super comfortable to lie on, either just on the sofa, or on the fold-out bed which folds out easily and feels firm and safe and takes 2 people. But it looks shabby so needs a throw. I made fitting arm-covers for it.
Pick-up is in Mt Victoria, access is not difficult.
