Help.. my daughter will not stop climbing everything she’s up the back of the sofa on the stairs tries to climb the bath if there’s a box or small table she’s on. She climbs onto the windowsils she’s up on dining chairs benches everything if you take your eye off her for one second she’s half way up something. She’s fell so many times nothing stops her she’s 19 months old when I tell her no and shout she pretends to be asleep

Childproof as much as possible.
Keep an eye on her as much as possible.
Pick your battles (let her climb where it's reasonable to do so).
Teach her how to climb (and more importantly get down) safely.
Give her lots and lots of opportunities to climb safely (softplay, the playground, a climbing frame set-up at home etc).

You won't really stop a climber climbing.
