When away from home with your baby, keep in mind that most environments are not
baby-proofed and many adults don't know the basics of baby safety, so pay special
attention to potential hazards. Stay near your baby at all times while she is
playing in a baby pool or tub; babies can drown in as little as a few inches of
water. If your mother-in-law wants to drag an old crib out of the attic for your
visit, suggest that you simply use the crib mattress on the floor; older cribs
may not meet the current safety standards. For more information, contact the
National Safety Kids Campaign at (202) 662-0600 or safekids.org.
