How do I baby-proof a house?
user
You probably want to put a bolt on the closet to make it child-safe, and the baby should be free to crawl everywhere.

What about stairs?
user
You can build baby gates, they’re sort of like folding doors that are made to go up and down stairs.  If you put one at the bottom of the stairs, then the baby can get to the top, but not down the stairs.  And you’ll want to put one at the top of the stairs so that the baby can’t get to the bottom of the stairs.  Putting one at the top of the stairs will also keep the baby safe if you need to go up and down the stairs quickly.

Most of that sounds good, but if I put a gate at the bottom, then the baby can't get to the top.
user
Oh, that's right.  Sorry about that.  You could use a gate at both the top and the bottom of the stairs.  Or you could just have the baby be able to climb the stairs and then you'll always be able to supervise them.

What should I do about electrical outlets?
user
If you are worried about your child electrocuting themselves, you can put tape over the outlets so they can’t plug things into them.

If you want to prevent the baby from touching things that could be dangerous, you could just not have them near those kinds of things.
