Childproofing The Home

Mar 21, 2011

By Staff writer State Farm™ Employee

Working mother Tanya Jones takes her son Justin’s safety very seriously; that’s why she invited James Hirtenstein, a child-safety expert, to visit and advise her on how to better childproof her home.

As Hirtenstein points out, dangers for children can be found almost anywhere in the home. Whether it’s the sharp corners of a coffee table or an unsteady antique lamp, parents need to remain watchful and stay two steps ahead of their curious toddlers.
