Like the kitchen, the bathroom can be a hazardous place for your child. The following tips should help keep her safe and out of mischief:

• Install a hook-and-eye lock high up on the outside of the door and keep it latched when you're not using the bathroom.

• Remove sharp utensils and appliances from the bathroom. Razors, scissors, and blow dryers are better kept in an adult's bedroom or locked in a cupboard well out of your child's reach.

• Keep all medicines -- including antacids, iron pills, cosmetics, and mouthwash (which has more alcohol than wine) -- safely out of reach.

• Set hot water heaters no higher than 54 deg C (120 deg F). A lower water temperature helps ensure
safe bathing by reducing the chance of scalding (it takes just three seconds for a child to get burned).

• Always run the cold tap first when preparing a bath, to reduce the risk of scalds.

• Place a non-slip mat in the bath to help prevent falls.

• Don't ever leave your child alone in the bath, even for a minute. If the doorbell rings, scoop him up in a towel and take him with you. Bring a portable phone into the bathroom if you feel you can't miss a call.

• Teach your child to stay seated in the bathtub at all times -- you'll have to repeat this message calmly, many times, before it sticks.
