The Five Golden Rules of Home Safety


1. Teach everyone in your household the emergency telephone numbers and keep them next to the phone!

2. Read all package inserts, labels and instructions. Follow all instructions listed by the manufacturer.

3. Attend a first aid course and ensure that anyone who is caring for your child does the same.

4. Identify potentially unsafe objects, products and situations in and around your home and make them safe.

5. Never dismiss you child for reporting potential dangers in and around your home. Reward them for their quick thinking and get them involved in safety.
