The biggest safety tip that I feel important is keeping all the medicines out of reach and at the top so that, they will not reach up there.
We have to keep all that things away from them that are having edges as it is very risky.

When getting out of the car always get the more mobile child (toddler or preschooler) out last so you have control over where they are and what they are doing. A baby can't wander through a busy car park like a toddler can!

Ensure bookcases are bolted to your walls. I have heard nasty stories about babies and toddlers being very seriously hurt as they have pulled themself up on a freestanding bookcase. They are not so sturdy if someone is pulling on them!
Most people think of barriers for stairs, but you also need to ensure you have one at the bottom of the stairs. If small babies climb up a few stairs they can easily fall backwards.

Some great safety tips!!
Our business is child safety and we sell Anti Tip TV Straps. Sadly 3 children every week in Qld alone are injured by tip over injury.
The straps are on display at the Kidsafe Demo house in Brisbane. You can also purchase through Kidsafe at the Brisbane or Canberra shops. The straps secure the TV to the furniture or wall and retail for $22.95. They are also available at www.motherknowsbest.com.au
As we work closely with Kidsafe some other great tips they have passed on to us are:
* Dont encourage the use of your driveway as a play area. Always make sure an adult is holding your child or the child is in the car with you, when you move the car. - Sadly many children every year have been killed by driveway accidents.
* Make sure the pram brake is on! Prams can roll away so easily.
* Keep batteries away from little children. If swallowed the can cause horrific internal burns.
* Make sure your TV is as far back as possible. Dont put toys or other objects a child will reach for on the TV or stand. Ensure the TV is wall mounted or secured with straps on a stable TV stand. Make sure TV cords are out of reach. Make sure doors or draws are removed or secured to stop them being used as steps.
