Keeping Children Safe: Water & Window Safety

Accidents can happen in seconds – but a few simple steps can help keep your child safe at home and around water.

Water Safety

Always watch children near water – even a few inches can be dangerous, including pools, bathtubs, buckets, or even shallow ponds.
Use pool fences and lock gates.
Keep tubs, buckets, and kiddie pools empty after use.

Window Safety

Keep furniture away from windows and teach children not to climb.
Lock windows when not in use, including balcony doors.
Immediately organise a repair of any broken windows, balcony, or door catches or if in rented accommodation, immediately report it to your housing provider or landlord.
