I was thinking the same thing that i should wait til they become a little older
You know honestly the only thing I child proofed was my outlets... I rather teach my kids they aren't too touch things they shouldn't rather than put everything out of reach. I mean I don't have a bunch of things out anyways that are dangerous but it's because when we go places I don't want my kids thinking they can touch whatever they want. I look at it as house proofing my child rather than child proofing my house. But I think you can do it whenever you like. Or maybe when baby starts crawling
