Numerous agents used in the household daily contain highly toxic ingredients. Prevention of possible child poisoning is based on a responsible approach towards the use and disposal of sources of potentially toxic substances.

There are signs that may indicate impending drowning: a child's head tilted back with the mouth open, eyes closed or wandering, deep breathing and fighting for air, waving his/her arms, jittery moves and unsuccessful attempts to swim. It is not uncommon for drowning to take place in complete silence, without crying for help or other warning sounds.

Drowning is the leading cause of death for children under 5 years of age, and one of the most common causes of death for children of all other ages. Caregivers' caution is a crucial factor in preventing drowning.

When buying a stroller, it is necessary to pay attention to the method of maintenance and cleaning. Check the warranty card for instructions on how to disassemble, assemble, maintain and wash all parts of the stroller.

When planning a trip, don't forget a travel medical kit for your child. With medicines and supplies from the travel medical kit, parents can prevent or alleviate some problems in children, but if the child becomes ill, be sure to call a doctor.

If you are traveling with the baby for the first time, a good travel plan and organization are important. In order for your baby to be safe, transport him/her in a certified and properly installed car seat, appropriate for his/her the age, and make sure the baby is properly buckled every time.

In the first few years of life, babies and young children can be exposed to the sun only at the recommended time (in the morning, until 11 AM, and late in the afternoon, after 5 PM), provided that protection measures are followed.

The first time you are on a beach or by a pool with the baby, he/she may be scared of noise, crowd, waves, and will refuse to go into the water with you. It is desirable to get the baby wet gradually and adapt to the water. Do not do anything by force.

There is no evidence that pregnant women are at a higher risk of severe disease, or that they have specific disease symptoms.

Close contact and early, exclusive breastfeeding help your baby to thrive. Breast milk provides antibodies that give babies everywhere a healthy boost and protect them against many infections and may fight against COVID-19 infection, if baby is exposed. In addition, the coronavirus has not been found in breast milk, and transmission via breastfeeding has not been demonstrated.
