We were in need of babyproofing services for our home and came across Safer Babies. The reviews…read morewere consistently positive, so we booked an in-home consultation with the owner, Joe Metzger (virtual consultations are also available, but we preferred in person). During the consultation, Joe walked through our home and carefully noted what needed to be addressed. He sent us a detailed quote that same evening and was quick to answer any follow-up questions. He adjusted the plan based on our preferences and offered thoughtful recommendations when appropriate, never with any pressure. His experience--over 25 years in the business--along with his reputation made it easy to trust his guidance. About a month later, Joe returned to complete the babyproofing. He was professional, detail-oriented, and clearly takes pride in his work. The installations were clean, sturdy, and extremely well done--the quality truly speaks for itself. He even noticed that the door on our built-in microwave was popping out and casually fixed it. Joe was a pleasure to work with, and our home feels much safer and more secure now.

Joe is so easy to work with, very professional, and I would recommend him to anyone who is baby proofing. My dog Louie also really liked him. Would recommend-5 stars. Thanks Joe!

Sebastien Amy at A Plus Childproofing was so incredibly helpful. We have a very tricky staircase in…read moreour NYC apartment that I could not for the life of me figure out how to babyproof for our one-year-old, and Sebastien immediately understood the issue and sent me ideas for how to solve it. He was also just so nice about the whole thing. He sent me photos and examples of different setups so I could actually see what he was talking about, You can tell he's seen every weird NYC apartment configuration imaginable! Babyproofing can be surprisingly stressful when you have a space where none of the standard gates seem like they'll work, and Sebastien made the whole thing feel much more manageable. Knowledgeable, responsive, generous with his time- I would absolutely recommend him to any NYC parent!

I would not hire Bobby for babyproofing installation. Bobby…read moreperformed the installation in my home while he was working with Safe Start Child. My consultation with Safe Start had been professional and reassuring, so I expected a careful, thorough installation. Instead, my experience with Bobby was rushed, dismissive, and sloppy. He seemed irritated when I asked questions or pointed out safety concerns that needed attention, including cords, power strips, doors, outlets, and furniture. Rather than walking through the home and helping me make informed decisions, he made me feel like I was inconveniencing him. The work had multiple problems. Cord covers were installed awkwardly and incompletely, exposed cords were left behind, outlets were missed, and I had to spend my own time correcting parts of the work after he left. A stair gate was installed in a way that interfered with my bedroom door and banged loudly when opened. Door lock decisions were rushed, and I ended up with products that were hard to use and missed doors that still needed locks. Most upsetting, Bobby damaged my electric fireplace by screwing visible metal L-brackets directly into the top of the mantle. This was an expensive piece of furniture and a focal point in my bedroom. A shelving unit was also anchored off-center. The work felt careless, not professional. I reported the issues to Safe Start Child, which was the company Bobby was working with at the time. Safe Start handled the situation responsibly and fixed everything they could. This review is about Bobby's installation work and how he handled the appointment. I was recently reminded of this experience when a friend was considering babyproofing options, and I felt compelled to leave a review. Parents hire babyproofers because they want expert guidance, safety, and peace of mind. That is not what I experienced with Bobby. I would not recommend him.

Their business model gives you a lot of options as a consumer which I appreciated. You can simply get the in-home evaluation to help you see potential hazards and deal with them however you wish. But you could also buy childproofing products from them and install them yourselves, or alternatively have them do the installation. I didn't feel pressured in any direction, they simply gave me information and options, and I appreciated that. We picked several products to buy from Baby Proofing Montgomery and had them install some of them. They did an excellent job and their prices were reasonable. It was easy to communicate with them over email. I'd highly recommend them!

I highly recommend Ed and Jim's service - they have brought me peace of mind and have made me feel more confident about the safety of our home for our children.
