The birth of your baby is the most exciting, joyful and awesome event
in your life. Now with the celebration begins the biggest and most
challenging responsibility you’ll even have – the care and protection
of your fragile and precious baby. |
We asked pediatricians, nurses, firefighters and police officers and other experts who save lives every day, what they want parents to know to keep their baby safe.
We put their answers into the easy-to-understand and ready-to-use products created by Baby-Everywhere® and recommended by American Academy of Emergency Medicine and PediatricPlanet.com.

Some tips about babysitters:
• Have a trial run while you’re home! The best way to judge a babysitter is while you’re home! It will give your baby and the babysitter a chance to get to know each other before they’re alone together, and it will give you an opportunity to make sure you feel comfortable with the sitter.
• Leave a sitter with clear guidelines about what to do in an emergency. Make sure a sitter knows how to treat a child who is choking or not breathing.
• Let a neighbor or friend know if you list their name – then they are prepared to help a babysitter who calls for help if a parent can’t be reached. Also, ask them to tell you if they suspect any problems in your absence.
• Take a CPR course and pay for your babysitter to take one. You may never need it, but if and when you do, you will be glad you know CPR.
• CPR in pictures and words – it’s not intended as a substitute for taking a CPR course.
