Safety Tips for Nursey

 

By Parents
August 8, 2009

Learn how to keep your baby safe and sound in the nursery.

 

Safety Basics

 

You and your baby will be spending a lot of time in the nursery, so take steps now to make sure it’s a secure environment for your little one. Here are some safety tips:

 

1. Keep drapery and blind cords out of baby’s reach from the crib and changing table.

2. Place a working smoke detector in or near your child’s bedroom.

3. Make sure that window guards are securely in place to prevent a child from falling out the window.

4. Never place a crib, playpen, or other children’s furniture near a windo

5. Put plug protectors in unused electrical outlets.

6. Make sure your child’s toy box doesn’t have a heavy, hinged lid that could trap your child.

7. Use a cool-air humidifier instead of a vaporizer–to avoid burns. Clean it frequently, and empty it when not in use to prevent bacteria and mold growth.

 

The Changing Table

 

1. Use a safety belt on the changing table.

2. Keep baby powder and other supplies out of baby’s reach when changing.

3. Never leave a child unattended on a changing table.

4. Put carpet or a nonskid rug beneath the crib and changing table.

 

 

The Crib

 

1. Remove bumper pads, toys, pillows, and stuffed animals from the crib by the time baby can pull up to stand.

2. Remove all crib gyms, hanging toys, and decorations from the crib by the time baby can get up on his hands and knees.

3. Make sure the crib has no elevated corner posts or decorative cutouts in the end panels.

4. Fit the crib mattress snugly, without any gaps, so baby can’t slip in between the crack and the crib side.

5. Make sure slots on crib are no more than 2 3/8 inches apart.

6. Make sure that all screws, bolts, and hardware — including mattress supports — are in tight to prevent the crib from collapsing.

7. Make sure there are no plastic bags or other plastic material in or around the crib.

8.  Check the crib for small parts and pieces that baby could choke on.

9. Make sure the night-light is not near or touching drapes or a bedspread where it could start a fire.

 

       To reduce the risk of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome), put baby to sleep on her back in a crib with a firm, flat mattress — no soft bedding underneath her.

Cooking With Kids — Safely!

 

By Parents
July 26, 2009

 

These ultra-cool, supersafe cooking gadgets will get little ones pouring, blending, and spreading in no time.

 

Salad Spinner

 

Why kids love it: By pushing down on the pump, they can make it whir and watch it go very fast.

Ages: 3 and up.

Why grown-ups love it: Kids will beg for salad or spinach just so they can use the spinner.

Try this: Skip the lettuce and make your own spin art: Cut out circles of drawing paper that will fit in the bottom of the spinner. Pour a few drops of food coloring (choose several colors) on the paper. Put top on, and pump. The air will spin colors into a cool design.

We like: Zyliss salad spinner, $24.99, at amazon.com.

 

Cheese Spreader

Why kids love it: The small, short handle fits well in little hands. Cutting and spreading “by myself” strengthens confidence and independence.

Ages: 3 and up.

Why grown-ups love it: The blade is dull enough to be safe, but it’s still effective for cutting bananas, avocados, and other soft foods.

Try this: Give your toddler a peeled banana on a cutting board. Show her how to gently press the knife through the fruit to cut off bite-size pieces.

Soft-Handle Spatula
 

Why kids love it: The ergonomic design makes batter-gathering easy. He’ll feel as if he’s really helping.

Keeping Children Safe

By FDLE/PIO
July 11, 2009

Summer is an exciting time for kids – what are your child’s plans? Will he or she be spending time home alone or going to local parks and swimming pools with friends? The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children offers parents ten safety tips to help keep their children safe this summer.

1. MAKE SURE children know their full names, address, telephone numbers and how to use the telephone.

2. BE SURE children know what to do in case of an emergency and how to reach you using cell phone or pager number. Children should have a neighbor or trusted adult they may call if they’re scared or there’s an emergency.

3. REVIEW the rules with your children about whose homes they may visit and discuss the boundaries of where they may and may not go in the neighborhood.

4. MAKE SURE children know to stay away from pools, creeks, or any body of water without adult supervision

5. CAUTION children to keep the door locked and not to open the door or talk to anyone who comes to the door when they are home alone.

6. DON‘T drop your children off at malls, movies, video arcades or parks. These are not safe places for children to be alone. Make certain a responsible adult supervises your younger children at all times when they are outside and away from home.

7. TEACH your children in whose vehicle they may ride. Children should be cautioned to never approach any vehicle, occupied or not, unless accompanied by a parent or other trusted adult.

8. BE SURE your children know their curfew and check in with you if they are going to be late. If children are playing outside after dark, make sure they wear reflective clothing and stay close to home.

9. CHOOSE babysitters with care. Obtain references from family, friends, and neighbors. Many states now have registries for public access to check criminal history or sex-offender status. Observe the babysitter’s interaction with your children, and ask your children how they feel about the babysitter.

10. CHECK out camp and other summer programs before enrolling your children. See if a background screening check is completed on the individuals working with the children. Make sure there will be adult supervision of your children at all times, and make sure you are made aware of all activities and field trips offered by the camp or program.

“Child safety is important all year, but summer is an especially important time for parents and children to include safety in their activities,” according to Ernie Allen, President & CEO of NCMEC. “Always listen to your children and keep the lines of communication open. Your children are your best source for determining if everything is okay. Teach your children to get out of dangerous or uncomfortable situations right away and practice basic safety skills with them. Make sure they know they are able to tell you about anything that makes them feel scared, uncomfortable, or confused.”

NCMEC also recommends that parents be sure all custody documents are in order and certified copies are available in case your children are not returned from a scheduled summer visit.

This year the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children celebrates its 25th anniversary. NCMEC has played a role in the recovery of more than 138,500 children. Today more children come home safely than ever before. In 2008, NCMEC helped recover more children than any other year in the organization’s 25-year history raising the recovery rate from 62% in 1990 to 97% today. And more of those who prey on children are being identified and prosecuted. Yet too many children are still missing and too many children are still the victims of sexual exploitation. There is much more that needs to be done.

The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization. Since it was established by Congress in 1984, the organization has operated the toll-free 24-hour national missing children’s hotline which has handled more than 2.5 million calls. It has assisted law enforcement in the recovery of more than 138,500 children. The organization’s CyberTipline has handled more than 700,000 reports of child sexual exploitation and its Child Victim Identification Program has reviewed and analyzed more than 23 million child pornography images and videos. The organization works in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention.

Grilling safety tips

by Sparky
July 2, 2009

Editor’s Note: On this 4^th of July, we will probably be cooking outside. We as Parents it is our responsibily be sure sure are kids are safe and know the rules of  cooking on the grill. We also have a video that you can watch in our video section.

We would like to know what you think?  dan@youngchronicle.com  

Fire in the grill, under hot dogs and burgers, is a welcome sight at the family cookout. But fire anywhere else can make your summer kick-off barbecue memorable for all the wrong reasons.

Safety tips

• Propane and charcoal BBQ grills should only be used outdoors.
• The grill should be placed well away from the home, deck railings and out from under eaves and overhanging branches.
• Keep children and pets away from the grill area.
• Keep your grill clean by removing grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill.
• Never leave your grill unattended.

Charcoal grills

• There are several ways to get the charcoal ready to use. Charcoal chimney starters allow you to start the charcoal using newspaper as a fuel.
• If you use a starter fluid, use only charcoal starter fluid. Never add charcoal fluid or any other flammable liquids to the fire.
• Keep charcoal fluid out of the reach of children and away from heat sources.
• There are also electric charcoal starters, which do not use fire. Be sure to use an extension cord for outdoor use.
• When you are finished grilling, let the coals completely cool before disposing in a metal container.

Propane grills

Check the gas tank hose for leaks before using it for the first time each year. Apply a light soap and water solution to the hose. A propane leak will release bubbles. If your grill has a gas leak, by smell or the soapy bubble test, and there is no flame, turn off the gas tank and grill. If the leak stops, get the grill serviced by a professional before using it again. If the leak does not stop, call the fire department. If you smell gas while cooking, immediately get away from the grill and call the fire department. Do not move the grill.

Childproofing New House

By Keep Kids Healthy
June 28, 2009
Most people start thinking about childproofing their house once their child is crawling, walking and becoming a lot more mobile.

However, if you are moving into or building a new house, now could be a good time to start childproofing. Building a ‘safe’ home can help to save you time and money later once you move in and have to start childproofing.

Of course, new homes are generally safer than older homes. You don’t have to worry about lead paint, new appliances likely have more safety features than older ones, including gararge door openers, and ground-fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) help prevent electrocution.

Still, there are some ‘features’ of newer homes that make them harder to childproof. Among these trends in home building include:

• the use of lever type door handles
• installation of a lot of electric outlets (often 3-4 per room)
• more open designs that make the home seem bigger, but make it more difficult to limit your child’s movement around the house with gates, etc.

If you keep in mind that one of the basics of childproofing is restricting access to parts of your house that aren’t childproof, you can see why these above trends might make it harder to make your home safe.

Door Knobs

If you have a typical round door knob, simple plastic door knob covers can keep your toddler and preschool age children out of rooms that aren’t childproof, restrict unsupervised access to the bathroom, etc., and keep your kids from leaving the house, but it is still easy for older kids and adults to open the doors.

Unfortunately, these types of door knob covers can’t be used with lever type door handles. Instead, you have to install an overhead door latch, which are more expensive and difficult to install than door knob covers and would also keep your older kids or shorter family members from opening the door if they can’t reach the top of the door to move the latch.

If you are building a new home, unless you don’t have younger kids, aren’t planning to have children, and won’t be having younger children visit, you might ask to have standard round door knobs installed. If the house is already built, ask to have the knobs replaced or ask to be compensated for changing them yourself.

 

Electric Outlets

With the regular use of ground-fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs), your child is safer and less likely to get electrocuted in a new home.

And the trend to have more electric outlets in each room makes it less likely that you will have electric and appliance cords going all over the room or that outlets will be overloaded.

So maybe it is a good idea to have a lot of outlets in a room. Just remember to place outlet covers on all of the electric outlets that aren’t in use.

 

Safety Gates

Fortunately, even in a home with a very open design, you can usually limit your child’s access to stairs and rooms that aren’t childproof with the use of safety gates and safety gate extensions.
Hot Water Heater

Make sure that you understand how to set your hot water heater to 120 degrees Fahrenheit (49 degrees Celsius) to prevent scalding burns. This will help to reduce the approximately 3,800 injuries and 34 deaths that occur in the home each year due to scalding from excessively hot tap water.

 

Window Blind Loops

Children can become strangled in window blind cord loops, so make sure that if you are installing window binds, that they don’t have loops.

 

Smoke Alarms and CO Detectors

New homes all come with smoke alarms, but builders often leave out carbon monoxide detectors. To be safe, you should install a carbon monoxide detector/alarm in the hallway near every separate sleeping area of the home, especially if your home has any non-electric appliances, including a gas furnace, range, fireplace, water heater, or room heaters, or if you have an attached garage, in which you might, but shouldn’t, leave a running car.

 
Your New ‘Safe’ Home Moving into a new home is exciting.

Just be sure to plan for the safety needs of children when buying and moving into your new home. See our childproofing guide for more safety tips.

Ten Places Find a Babysitter for Child with Special Needs

About.com
May 24, 2009>

A night out, a weekend away, a special occasion with one of your other children. There are times when you really, really need a babysitter for your child with special needs. But it has to be a babysitter who can handle him. Who knows about her health problems or behavioral struggles? Who will show good judgment when your child can’t. Who will keep your child safe against long odds? That’s not a job for the teen next door. Who you are going to call? Here are 10 places to start your search.

1. Your family

There may be many family members who you would no more trust with your child’s needs than you would a stranger on the street. But if there is a sympathetic relative who has a rapport with your child, which may be a good place to look for child-sitting services. Don’t take unfair advantage, but don’t be afraid to ask.

 

2. Your close and trusted friends

We’re not talking about casual acquaintances here. A friend who is close to your family and your child may welcome an opportunity to spend some quality time. Besides taking care of your child-care emergencies, this is a good way to create deep bonds between your child and those surrogate “uncles” and “aunts.”

 

3. Your child’s school

Young teachers may be in the market for a little job on the side, and if there’s one you particularly like, it may be worth asking, privately and in no way that jeopardizes anyone’s job, whether there’s any babysitting availability. Similarly, classroom aides may welcome a chance for some extra income.

 

4. Your child-care provider

The workers who handle your child’s needs at a daycare, preschool, or after-school program would likely be able to do that in your home as well. If there’s a worker you or your child particularly likes, find a discreet way to ask if they’d possibly be available for occasional babysitting.

 

5. Your therapists

Many school speech, occupational, and physical therapists are young, fresh from school, and paying off student loans. Although there may again be some conflict of interest in their seeing a child out of school, it doesn’t hurt to check if they’d be interested in child-watching jobs over the summer if not during the school year.

 

6. Your house of worship

Asking around among members of your worship community may help you find out about experienced parents who are looking for extra work to help their children pay for college or to supplement family income. Putting an ad in a church bulletin or newspaper may also be a good tactic. Be up-front about your child’s special needs.

 

7. Your nearby college

If a college near you has a special education program, or one for speech, physical, or occupational therapy — anything for which students need to gain experience with special-needs children — call the offices of those programs and see if there are students close to graduation, with some skills in dealing with special kids, who would appreciate the opportunity to work informally with yours.

 

8. Your support group

The moms in your support group are likely too busy taking care of their own challenging children to watch yours, too. But they may have found good babysitting resources in your community that they can share with you. Can’t hurt to ask.

 

9. Your state or local respite services

Respite services provide professionals to watch your child while you get a night or weekend off. The ARCH National Respite Network can help you find services in your area. Click on “Search for Respite” for a form listing your specific needs, or on “State Listings” for information listed alphabetically by state and city.

 

10. Your own tired spouse

It ruins date night for sure, but if finding someone outside the immediate family proves to be impossible, see if you can at least alternate so that each of you gets time off — and time in, being the exclusive caretaker and playmate. A weekly coffee out with a friend or half-hour at the gym can do a lot to refresh and relax you. Take what you can get.

Calling for help

by BSO Kids
May 23, 2009
 

None of us handle emergencies every day. In fact, even grown-ups aren’t always sure what to do. You can save someone’s life if you do two things: first, stay calm! Second, call 9-1-1 right away.

• When you call 9-1-1, the operator will ask you if you need police, fire, or medical help. If you’re not sure, just explain what’s going on and the operator will take it from there.
• If you can’t remember 9-1-1, just dial “0” for the operator. If you’re away from home and a pay phone is nearby, just pick up the handset and dial. An emergency call from a pay phone is free-you don’t need any coins.
• It’s okay to tell the operator your name and your age. If you are calling from a home telephone, you don’t need to know the address. The address will automatically show up on the operator’s computer screen. If you’re outside calling from a cell phone, the computer won’t be able to tell exactly where you are. So, the operator might ask you if you can see any street signs or large buildings near by. They need that information so they know exactly where to send help.
• Stay on the phone until the operator tells you it’s okay to hang up. They will probably ask you questions while help is on the way. Speak loudly and clearly, and answer the questions the best you can.
• If a fire breaks out at your home, leave immediately and go to a neighbor’s house to call 9-1-1. Never call 9-1-1 from inside a burning building. Your safety comes first!
• You should only call 9-1-1 for life and death emergencies-when you need help fast. Maybe you are seeing a crime in progress, or someone’s very ill or was badly injured in an accident, or if there’s a fire.
• Sometimes when we make telephone calls, we dial the wrong number by mistake. If you dial 9-1-1 by mistake, wait until the operator answers and tell them you dialed the wrong number. If you dial 9-1-1 then hang up without talking to the operator, they will think something is wrong and will send a police officer or deputy to your home to see if you’re okay. If you stay on the line and tell the operator you just dialed the wrong number, they’ll be happy.

Helping Students Recovering from Traumatic Events

By Fema Kids
May 13, 2009

 

Children will react in their own way and in their own time to their disaster experience. Most reactions are normal and typically go away with time. Parents should be observant, though, if this does not happen.

• Often children will cling to parents and may not want to be away from them. When a child shows excessive clinging and unwillingness to let a parent out of sight, the child is expressing fear and anxiety of separation or loss. These fears should dissolve when the threat of danger dissipates and children feel secure again under a parent’s protection. Parents should give them comfort and reassure them that they are safe. Once they feel safe, they’ll begin to let go.
• Some children need to talk about a traumatic experience all the time and others don’t want to talk at all. This is normal. While it is important not to force children to talk about their experiences, it is also critical for parents to let them know they’re willing to listen, and then, to listen.
• Anxiety about disaster experiences and problems sometimes keeps children awake at night, or nightmares might wake them. Temporary changes in sleeping arrangements following a disaster may be helpful, such as parents letting children put sleeping bags on the floor in their room or sleeping closer to them at first. After a brief period of temporary changes, it is helpful to move back to pre-disaster bedtime routines.
• Giving children choices helps them feel some control when their environment has felt out of control. Choosing food, clothes, what games to play-any appropriate choices-can be helpful.
• Children still need discipline. It helps them feel safe to know their parents won’t let them get away with too much and that normal rules still apply.
• Going to a new school is hard, especially now. Parents may want to see if they can visit the school with their child ahead of time.
• Enabling children to stay in contact with their old friends or even children they met in a shelter can help them feel that their whole world is not gone. The child’s new school may want to help evacuated children get in touch with friends also relocated in the area.
• Parents will want to establish daily routines as soon as they can. Meals, bedtimes and other regular parts of their day can help children feel comforted and know what to expect.
• Sometimes students react to trauma and stress with anger. They may feel it gives them a sense of control. Adults should be understanding but hold children responsible for their behavior. It is not OK to hurt others and break other home and school rules, even if students are stressed.
• It doesn’t help younger children to watch coverage of the disaster over and over. However, some older adolescents may find viewing some factual media reports helpful in order to better understand the disaster and recovery efforts. As an alternative, parents may want to read newspaper accounts with their child.
• Parents should remember to take good care of themselves, too. This will help them have the energy necessary to take care of their children. Their ability to cope with this disaster will help their children cope as well.

Kids on My Space

By BSO Kids
May 12,  2009

 

MySpace makes it easy to express yourself, connect with friends and make new ones, but who you let into your space, how you interact with them, and how you present yourself online are important things to think about when using social networking sites. Here are some common sense guidelines that you should follow when using MySpace:

• Don’t forget that your profile and MySpace forums are public spaces. Don’t post anything you wouldn’t want the world to know (e.g., your phone number, address, IM screen names, or specific whereabouts). Avoid posting anything that would make it easy for a stranger to find you, such as where you hang out every day or a picture of you in front of your office or school.

 

• People aren’t always who they say they are. Be careful about adding strangers to your friends list. It’s fun to connect with new MySpace friends from all over the world, but avoid meeting people in person whom you do not fully know. If you must meet someone, do it in a public place and bring a friend or trusted adult.

 

• Harassment, hate speech and inappropriate content should be reported. If you feel someone’s behavior is inappropriate, react. Report it to MySpace or the authorities.

 

• Don’t post anything that would embarrass you later. It’s easy to think that only our friends are looking at our MySpace page, but the truth is that everyone can see it. Think twice before posting a photo or information you wouldn’t want your parents, potential employers, colleges or boss to see!

 

• Don’t say you’re over 18 if you’re not. Don’t say you’re younger than 18 if you’re not. If MySpace customer service determines you are under 13 and pretend to be older, we will delete your profile. If customer service determines you are over 18 and pretend to be a teenager to contact underage users, we will delete your profile.
