"As a professional babyproofer, my goal is to use my training and expertise to make your home the safest possible place for your child."

Welcome to Safe Nest Babyproofing! I founded Safe Nest after experiencing for myself the frustrations of trying to babyproof my own home. Like all new parents, I wanted to provide the safest possible home environment for my baby, but the big box chain stores all sold the same poorly designed products.

After taking multiple trips back and forth to the major retailers and spending hours installing these products just to see my inquisitive daughter quickly defeat them, I thought there had to be better options. I took it upon myself to research and test out an array of babyproofing products to keep my daughter safe. Through trial and error, I figured out what is the best of the best in babyproofing and even designed my own stairway gate mounting system.

Three years and one more kid later, I realized I could put my babyproofing experience to good use by helping other parents protect their own kids. I am a member of the International Association For Child Safety and have more than 50 hours of hands-on training with Rick Leviton, president of Precious Baby Protectors with more than 19 years’ experience. I am also a Nationally Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST) and can offer onsite installation or inspection of your car seats.

Safe Nest Babyproofing is licensed and insured, and 100% of our business is focused on child safety.

Prior to founding Safe Nest Babyproofing, I worked in sales for over 10 years and received a B.S. from the University of Maryland. I spend most of my free time playing with my kids and doing projects in my own house.
