Can you baby proof a hotel room?

Painter's TapeI han’t thought of baby proofing a hotel room before, but now that Lily is moving around a lot everything needs to be baby proofed. Well, as much as it can be. We’ve been to a few hotels with Lily, but she wasn’t this mobile before.

Now that we are about to embark on a vacation, we have a hotel room to think about. Baby proofing is hard to do though when you don’t even know what it looks like.

One good idea that was shared with us was to bring painters tape and tape over the outlets so little fingers don’t get in there.

Looking around the internet I found obvious answers like look for cords that should be tied up, look for things on the floor or under the bed, and make sure the TV is stable. I think there has to be other creative tips out there.

Have you had to baby proof a hotel room? What did you do?
