Examine all shades and blinds to ensure there are no accessible cords on the front, back or side of the window treatment.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/6_edit.gif\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7082 lazyload\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/6_edit.gif\" width=\"600\" height=\"302\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/6_edit.gif 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/6_edit-300x151.gif 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>2. Secure any loose cords out the reach of your children. Firmly anchor continuous cord loops to the wall or the floor. Lock cords into position when using horizontal window treatments to avoid any inner cord entanglements. Always check to make sure that your cords are kept taut by the tension device.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/7_edit.gif\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7083 lazyload\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/7_edit.gif\" width=\"600\" height=\"802\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/7_edit.gif 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/7_edit-224x300.gif 224w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>3. Do not place cribs, beds or furniture near any windows to prevent babies or toddlers from climbing onto furniture, encouraging play with dangling cords. If you have lots of <a title=\"nursery window treatments\" href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/windowtreatmentideas.asp?id=nursery-window-treatments\" target=\"_blank\">windows in your nursery<\/a>, you must choose the cordless option.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/8_edit.gif\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7084 lazyload\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/8_edit.gif\" width=\"600\" height=\"585\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/8_edit.gif 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/8_edit-300x292.gif 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>4.
