I was terrified my son was going to fall out the window so toddler-proofed them in four minutes for £8 for peace of mind | The Sun

A MUM who was terrified her son would fall out of their big upstairs windows showed how she baby-proofed them in just four minutes.

Melissa revealed she only spent £8 on the easy hack and it's given her peace of mind.

In a clip on her @___makingahouseahome account, which has racked up over 1,000 likes, she said: “Toddler proofing windows for £8 and installed in less than 4 minutes – yes I timed myself.

“Now that summer is here – even though it doesn’t feel like it because it hasn’t f***ing raining – my windows are always open.

“They are them massive windows and I literally just cannot sleep at night knowing my child could just f***ing fall out one.

“So I got this pack of two window safety locks from Amazon for two for £8.

“All you need is a drill and a screwdriver.

“It comes with the screws and all you need to do is drill into the f***ing window, then into the frame and screw it in.

“It is literally that easy.

“If you need to you can still have the window wide open but it just gives me peace of mind that during the day if my child went upstairs to the toilet there is no way he’s f***ing jumping out of the window.
