Tanning beds control amount and time of ultraviolet radiation. A tanning bed programs emission and intensity of ultraviolet rays according to recipient's body. The tanning beds stop radiations after stipulated time. In fact, a tanning bed is like a controlled dose of ultraviolet rays.

Tanning machines and tanning beds require a few precautions because of presence of ultraviolet light. Some of precautions required for tanning beds are:

* You should always wear protective eye goggles while using tanning beds. Tanning saloons have goggles available for their clients. Never use a tanning bed without goggles because ultraviolet rays are more harmful to retina than to your skin.

* Tanning Bed Exposure Timings: It is important to observe tanning bed timings. Over exposure at tanning beds could be harmful. Exposure times also vary with brand of bed. Make sure you are following manufacturer's guidelines. You can check other regulations with local Department of Health & Human Services.

Door alarms, pool alarms and pool covers can also provide additional levels of protection, adding obstacles for an exploring toddler to have to get through before reaching possible harm of submersion in water.

Swimming safety skills

If infants and toddlers are relaxed in water, they can hold their breath and provide parents with a few extra seconds to pick them up out of water. As children progress past water adjustment stage, it is important to teach skills such as jumping in, turning around and swimming back to side, recovering up for a breath and rolling to back for a breath. These skills provide additional protection should an unsupervised water entry occur.

Infant/Child CPR

Have an emergency action plan prepared so that in event of an accident you are able to stay calm and react efficiently and quickly. It is important all parents and caregivers are certified in Infant/Child CPR and first aid procedures.
