Review
The only book parents will ever need, The Safe Baby is the most comprehensive book I’ve ever seen on the topic of home safety. I can think of no better gift to the new family than a copy of this book. Even if you have already raised several children, there will be pages you turn down because you’ve forgotten to be as safe as you should.
--Sheri Wallace, Real Magazine
The biggest threat to the health of a child is an unsafe environment. Every parent or grandparent caring for their children should read this book and follow the advice.
--Michael P. Nussbaum, M.D., Associate Professor of Clinical Pediatrics
What a wonderful resource for parents, and what interesting reading!
--Phyllis Juried, Today's Parent magazine
To new parents, it sometimes seems as though there are life-threatening safety hazards lurking in every room in the house. Fortunately, there's no need to panic. In The Safe Baby, Debra Holtzman takes us on a room-by-room tour, thoroughly and calmly identifying problem areas and offering specific, easy-to-implement solutions. No home should be without a copy.
--Armin Brott, author of The New Father: A Dad's Guide to the First Year
Debra Smiley Holtzman, mother of two and former lawyer, is the type of woman I would want as a neighbor because when it comes to safety—particularly child safety—Holtzman is THE expert.
--Ana Veciana Suarez, The Miami Herald
Keeping your tot safe is undoubtedly your No. 1 concern. This practical guide is a fresh and empowering approach to the age-old topic, covering safety in every room of the house and beyond.
--National Parenting Publications Awards, on awarding the Gold Award
Holtzman offers parents of young children a well-written guide on home safety. The author takes a tour of the house and the backyard, covering safety measures that apply to each room. Besides the expected areas like the nursery, the bathroom, and the kitchen, Holtzman also covers the backyard, the home office, and the basement. Chapters on fire safety, common poisonous plants, and environmental hazards are also addressed. The "Room-by-Room Checklist" and the list of resources in the appendix are handy and extensive. Highly recommended.
--Library Journal

Absolute Must have for Mothers and Soon To Be Mothers,
By Steve Ray "Stevie Ray" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Safe Baby: A Do-It-Yourself Guide for Home Safety (Paperback)
This book has been a real gem for my wife and I. We have learned things that we would have never thought of had it not been for The Safe Baby. Little things like avoiding the microwave for heating baby foods was great to read about in this book. It takes many different pieces of information to insure a healthy and happy baby and all of them are included in this precious book. May you enjoy it and may your child be benefited from it.

Must have for all parents!,
By Jamie - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Safe Baby: A Do-It-Yourself Guide for Home Safety (Paperback)
Safe Baby is a wonderful book chock-full of helpfull tips for parents. I especially recommend the chapter on emergenies which covers everything from what to have in a first aid kit to what to do in the event of a natural disaster. Holtzman also has a great chapter on holidays. Many things she pointed out one might not think of so it was good to read and be able to keep them in the back of my mind. In my opinion, the advice in Safe Baby is key for every parent.

What a vacation!!,
By Clara "Reed" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Safe Baby: A Do-It-Yourself Guide for Home Safety (Paperback)
My sister got married a week ago in Charlotte, and I was really worried about traveling with my five month old daughter. I've had the Safe Baby for a while, but was surprised to find that there was a section I had always skipped: travel safety. This book is just so well-rounded. It fits my life and has practical advice on safety and on how to keep baby happy.
