SaveChanging Table Safety Checklist
Changing your baby's diaper can feel chaotic at times -- especially when the phone is ringing, someone's at the door, and baby is crying. Follow these guidelines to make sure that your baby remains safe while on the changing table.
;)
___ When selecting a changing table, look for one with straps that help prevent baby from falling.
___ Be sure any baby products you need, such as powder or wipes, are easily accessible.
___ NEVER turn your back on baby when reaching for baby products.
___ Most importantly, NEVER leave baby unattended, even for the shortest moment.
