A baby must be monitored at all times:it can drown in a few seconds in 10 cm of water and without making any noise. Don't take your eyes off him!

Equip your shower or bathtub with a non-slip mat.

Adjust the water temperature at 50°C maximum to avoid serious burns.

2. Electrical appliances

If you use a space heater, choose a special bathroom model and fix it in height and at a good distance from water points.

Remember to unplug hair dryer, razor or electric toothbrush as soon as you no longer use it.

3. Toiletries

Shower gel, bath salts, shampoos, perfumes, cleansing milks, all these products are packaged in very attractive bottles with tangy colours:they inevitably attract the little ones who will eventually want to taste them! Remember to store them out of their reach to avoid problems...
