childproofs
Makes toddler-safe areas
Childproofs means makes safe for children by adding protective devices or removing hazards.
A parent childproofs a home before a baby starts crawling—covering electrical outlets, latching cabinets, gating stairs.
The term applies to any space or object modified to prevent injury to young children: She childproofs the kitchen by moving cleaning supplies to high shelves.
