Just use your common sense when planning to childproof your hotel room. Think of the room as a smaller version of your home, taking the same precautions. But before you leave, call your hotel to see if childproofing equipment is available at your hotel. If not, be equipped with all the essentials to do it yourself.

When you arrive at the hotel, give the room a good inspection. Take notice of all the potential dangers for a child. You may want to even get down on your hands and knees and view the room from your child's point of view. Look carefully at the floor; are there any staples or tacks lingering around?

Once you have inspected the room take some time to make your adjustments.

The Basics

Move furniture away from the windows
 

Furniture needs to be stable and sturdy to avoid tipping over

Knobs should be tight so your children will not remove them (and put them in their mouths)

Make sure that doors and windows are securely locked

Tie up any loose cords to prevent possible strangulation

Unused outlets should be properly covered

Tables with sharp edges should either be removed or edges should be covered, washrags are a perfect solution

Remove any table cloths

The Crib

Make sure that it is up to standards with the Consumer Product Safety Commission: slats should not be more than 23/8 inches apart
 

Remove any pillows or blankets that may cause suffocation

If your hotel is not up to standards, pack along your own portable crib

The Bathroom

Never leave your child alone in the bathroom

When giving your child a bath, the water should not reach more than 120 degrees F, try to keep it between 96-100 degrees, so pack a thermometer.
 

Unplug any electrical appliances, i.e. hairdryer, and store them in a locked drawer
 

Make sure there are decals or a non-slip mat on the bathtub floor
 

Check to see if the bathroom mat has a stable backing to prevent slips
 

Any hazardous products should be put away: mouthwash, shampoo, cosmetics

Take extra precautions when you are traveling as your family is in a new, unfamiliar environment and may need more supervision than normal.
