How to identify it
A baby walker is an enclosed activity structure built to support a baby or young child in either a sitting or standing position so that their feet touch the floor. Walkers are mounted on wheels or a device that allows independent horizontal movement.
This alert involves the following products:
2 in 1 Push Baby Walker – HappySteps
Baby Walker Anti Rollover – First Steps
The hazard
Baby walkers have been banned in Canada since 2004.
Children in baby walkers are exposed to hazards that would not normally be accessible if the child were not supported by the walker, posing a variety of risks of injury to the child. Children in baby walkers can also fall down the stairs, which could result in injury or death.
