Kitchen Safety for Your Apartment in Gainesville
At Bellamay Grand, safety is one of our top priorities. We know that kitchens can sometimes be dangerous places, especially for children. Since children may not know safety rules or the dangers of certain kitchen appliances, it is important that you keep your eyes peeled if you have children in your apartment.
Some helpful tips for kitchen safety include:
- Making sure your child is not near the oven when you open the door.
- Keeping all pot handles faced away from counters, since small children have a tendency to grab things within their reach, and pulling pots off the stove can be extremely harmful.
- Trying to use the stove without holding your child, as this can be dangerous if they get too close to the fire on accident.
- Keeping cords for appliances tucked away so that children cannot pull on them or pull them off counters.
- Making sure your knives are stored where your kids cannot reach them.
- Storing kitchen cleaning products in an area where your kids cannot get to them, as cleaning chemicals can be caustic or toxic.
