I do all kinds of handyman work and I have quite a bit of experience in this field. (This category is newer to task rabbit but you will find reviews for me in this skillset under my home repairs category). Also I am an uncle to 14 nieces and nephews so I have personally assisted family members and helped baby proof all of their respective homes.

Frequently asked questions about Babyproofing

Babyproofing services in Portland start at $40 per hour.

Once you have the supplies, babyproofing your home takes only a couple of hours. However, this can depend on the size of your home and if you need to install baby gates places like at the top and bottom of staircases.

Babyproofing should be completed twice; once prior to baby's arrival and again once baby starts crawling.

Babyproofing is the process of making a home safe for babies by addressing potential hazards. The goal is to prevent any accidents or injuries from common household dangers.
