Get to know babysitters and your child’s older friends before leaving them alone with your child. Make a list of emergency telephone numbers. Place the list where it is easily accessible to the entire family, preferably near the telephone. Prepare a written emergency safety plan and ensure that all family members understand it by practicing the plan from time to time. Once a month, check that safety equipment such as fire extinguishers and alarms are working.
