Keep vigilance: Never leave a child unattended on a dressing table, even for a moment, even if the baby is strapped ! eyes on baby at all times, despite the baby is being buckled. Keep everything within reach. http://www.healthychildren.org/english/safety-prevention/at-home/pages/changing-table-safety.aspx?nfstatus=401&nftoken=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000&nfstatusdescription=error%3a+no+local+token.

Several precautions: 1. Never leave the child unattended 2. Always have an eye/hand on the child 3. A concave pad, velcro strap and side rails. 4. Have all your changing supplies readily available. And most importantly, never leave your child unattended! god luck with your new addition!
