如何让你的家对宝宝安全

Getting ready for a new baby can be an exciting time -- choosing everything from names to nursery colors -- is part of the fun.

为新生儿做准备是一件令人兴奋的事情——从名字到婴儿室的颜色，什么都可以选择——这也是乐趣的一部分。

But all new parents need to consider something that could be the difference between life and death for the newest occupant to their home -- safety.

但是，所有初为父母的人都需要考虑一些可能会决定新住户生死的事情——安全。

“It's so important to really think about your home from top-to-bottom,” says Salt Lake City-area blogger Jordan Page who has a loyal following of more than 700,000 on YouTube, Instagram and Twitter, and through her website. Considered the "queen of frugal," Page, a wife and mom to six children, is also sought after for her tips on parenting.

“从上到下认真考虑你的家是非常重要的。”盐湖城地区的博主乔丹•佩奇说，她在YouTube、Instagram、Twitter和她的网站上拥有超过70万的忠实粉丝。佩奇被认为是“节俭女王”，她是一位妻子和六个孩子的母亲，她的育儿秘诀也很受欢迎。

佩奇为你揭秘如何将宝宝介绍到他们的第一个家的安全贴士:

DECORATING BABY’S ROOM

布置婴儿房

“When decorating the baby's room, just make sure that you put up your wallpaper or that you paint the room at least four-to-eight weeks before baby comes home,” says Page who uses liquid starch and fabric for her own do-it-yourself wallpaper solution. “That way it has plenty of time to air out to dry.”

佩奇说:“在装饰宝宝的房间时，一定要确保在宝宝回家前至少四到八周就贴好墙纸，或者粉刷好房间。她使用液体淀粉和织物为自己做墙纸解决方案。“这样它就有足够的时间晾干。”

Another important tip: be careful about the window coverings you install.

另一个重要提示:小心你安装的窗套。

“One thing that is potentially so hazardous for babies are those cords and strings on blinds and curtains,” explains Page. “Try to go for electric shades or shutters that have no strings at all.”

佩奇解释说:“对婴儿来说，有一件事可能非常危险，那就是窗帘和窗帘上的绳子。”“试着使用没有任何弦的电动遮光板或百叶窗。”

STAYING OUT OF TOO HOT WATER

远离过热的热水

Bathtub water temperature can be the difference between a baby laughing or needing a trip to the emergency room.

浴缸水温可能是婴儿大笑或需要去急诊室的区别。

“One of the things that I recommend doing is having a professional come and help you regulate the temperature on your actual water heater,” says Page who gave birth to she and husband Bubba’s first child in 2010.

“我建议做的一件事是请专业人士来帮你调节热水器的温度，”佩奇说，她在2010年生下了她和丈夫布巴的第一个孩子。

Page highly recommends having a guard on the hot water heater set to a maximum of 120 degrees to prevent potential scorching of a baby’s skin.

佩奇强烈建议在热水器上设置一个保护装置，最大设置为120度，以防止婴儿皮肤的潜在灼伤。

LEAF THAT PLANT ALONE

单独留一种植物

Plants can provide a inviting environment but some may be dangerous to your baby.

植物可以提供一个诱人的环境，但有些可能对你的宝宝有危险。

“Check all your plants inside and outside the home to make sure they are not toxic,” says Page. “I personally love to go for the fake plants because they look amazing without any of the potential poison.”

佩奇说:“检查一下家里和屋外的所有植物，确保它们没有毒性。”“我个人很喜欢这种假植物，因为它们看起来很棒，没有任何潜在的毒素。”

CLEAN AND CLEAR

干净和清晰

Toxic cleaning sprays need to be “locked away in a safe place,” says Page. “Get yourself a disinfecting microfiber cloth.” Add water, and it cleans without leaving a trace of chemicals, she says. Page also suggests childproof magnetic locks on cabinets.

佩奇说，有毒的清洁剂需要“锁在安全的地方”。给自己找一块消毒的超细纤维布。她说:“加水，它就不会留下任何化学物质的痕迹。”佩奇还建议在橱柜上安装防儿童磁锁。
