Don’t Sacrifice Fashion for Safety Munchkin Safety Gates

by 749 Comments

Debra HoltzmanLast week I had the opportunity to sit in on a webinar with Munchkin’s communication manager Jennifer Campana and Debra Holtzman, author of The Safe Baby and world renowned child safety expert about the launch of Munchkin’s new safety gates and keeping your baby safe. Munchkin is hoping to help families keep the fashion and design in their home décor while adding safety for their children and dogs. Yes, Munchkin is going to market the same gates to dog owners just by putting them in a different box. I think it’s a genius marketing plan, because whenever we’ve used a gate for our dog we always just used the baby gates, but dog owners won’t think to go to the baby section to find a gate will they? I didn’t! In fact, before I had kids I thought the best pet solution was to lock them in the bathroom while I was gone.

The new design in the Safety gates comes from the acquisition of The United Kingdom’s number one baby safety brand Lindam. It is through this partnership, that Munchkin has brought a line of top-selling safety gates to the US market, LOFT ld152 Lifestyleenabling parents to choose both safe and stylish options for their homes. Munchkin safety gates are built to the highest quality standards and rigorously tested to meet or exceed both U.S. and European safety standards. Munchkin infant safety gates are aesthetically pleasing and come in a wide range of measurements, price points, styles and mounting types.

In a report from Safe Kids USA and Munchkin, it was reported that more than half of all nonfatal injuries in children are from falls, many of these falls involve unprotected stairways. My son, is almost three, he’ll be 3 in one month from now and he still falls down the stairs, I even had to take him to the emergency room last month because he landed on one of his toys that he had in his hands has he fell down the stairs. You can’t ever be too careful when it comes to your kids, so I urge you to take proper precautions for your own children. For stairs, it is recommended that you have a gate at the bottom of the stairs and at the top of the stairs.

  2. OMG the numi gate is cool. I love that it’s easy to install, practical since it can be installed on uneven doorposts and it can easily be removed and slid back into place when the children aren’t around

  196. I have been looking for a gate since early fall and I really like the DECO! I love the rich wood look coupled with the black! (we have a wide doorway from living room to kitchen and other swing gates dont work for us)

    thanks so much!

  355. The easy to close in white. We have the worst baby gates up now. Fortunately, we don’t use them for babies but rather for our dogs. Having a deaf dog… it makes lives easier so that she can’t escape when the pizza guy visits.
    Thanks for the chance!

  418. We like the auto-close gate. This way the older kids wont leave it open and the baby stays put!!

    thanks for the opportunity to win!
