I have a 4 month old son and an ageing hideous townhouse that we bought just before he was born terrible timing but nevermind
It was a probate sale and needs a fair amount of doing up - we've just had the planning permission approved for the structural components so are turning our minds to the finishings, materials, layouts of each room etc.
So - my question - what should and shouldn't we be building in to make it as easy as possible when my little tearaway son starts to be mobile?Am thinking things like floors not being too hard, building in locks on kitchen cupboards etc. I figure we have a golden opportunity to advance baby proof our house! It's a fairly standard townhouse - informal kitchen/diner/living space on the ground floor, formal sitting room in the 1st and then bedrooms above. Bifolds out to garden in the back.
TIA - any thoughts much appreciated.
