Top 5 Baby Proofing Must Haves

You go to bed one night with a sweet little angelic baby and before you know if you wake up to a walking, talking destroyer of all things. With two fully mobile toddlers on our hands baby proofing everything is at the top of the list. The minute you think something is out of their reach they prove you wrong by showing you just how easy it is to get to and promptly throw in the toilet or hit their brother with. This post includes our top 5 absolute must haves for making life a little less stressful with little Godzillas running around.

OUTLET COVERS

Rory loves to pull cords out of the wall and while we try to hide our cords behind furniture, we only have so much furniture. These are great because they allow you to keep your items plugged in while also keeping those tiny hands out.

CABINET LOCKS 

We love these because they are so easy to install, move around if necessary and still access all that poisonous junk our boys seem so interested in. You simply put them on the cabinet handles and tighten. No sticky stuff or screws needed!

LATCHES 

We use these for all the things not cabinet related. The microwave, trash can lids and Jack’s fridge. I am certain Rory will find us a few more uses for these handy little boogers.

DOOR/STAIR BABY GATES

We absolutely love these. They are super easy to install, not permanent and really easy to use. Bonus points for keeping the babies off the stairs that they love to climb so much.

PLAY YARD BABY GATE

We used this up until the above gates were necessary and we still use it when we need to keep the boys on one side of the room. They are so versatile, they come apart so they can be as big or small as you need and you can connect them to make one big play yard if you so choose.

If you are fighting the same battles with your toddlersaurus rexs running amuck in your house I certainly hope this post helps to keep at least a few things out of reach! All the items above are linked in the bolded name sections for ease of purchasing!
