As a mother of two, Lucinda 2.5 years and Xavier 10 months, I’ve come to better understand the anxieties and pressures associated with wanting to keep ones children safe from harm. Also, after having worked for different governments on a variety of child safety and injury prevention projects, it became apparent that there is a need to inform and empower parents and carers in an effort to raise awareness and reduce the incidence of child injuries in the home.
Unintentional injuries to children can have minor to severe impacts on children, their families and even their communities. Most injuries that occur in the home are minor, but some can result in tragedy. Causes of injuries are endless, but commonly include; falls, poisoning, near drowning, choking and suffocation, animal bites, burns and scalds, being crushed or struck, and cutting and piercing.
