There really is nothing more important than your child’s health and safety…here is valuable information from the March of Dimes.

Use it when you have questions about any products but especially children’s products that you already own or are planning to purchase.

 

Product safety database

“A new service exists for consumers looking for safety information on products they own or are thinking about buying. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) created a safety database at SaferProducts.gov as part of the Consume Product Safety Improvement Act.  This database will work in a unique way.  It will provide product safety information but will also allow consumers to report harmful incidents and safety issues.
