We're making an unexpected visit to friends with a totally unchildproofed house. Friend has told us to bring whatever gates, etc. we think we need. I'm pretty mellow about these things, but I would like to get a door gate for DS's temporary room (which will be upstairs--and he's not used to stairs). Any recommendations about what to get and where to get it? Which NYC-stores carry baby gates? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

If it's just for a quick visit, get one of those pressure gates. toys or babies r us. How old is db? Can't you just leave the door closed. If dc is 2 or over, can likely climb over a gate anyway. [ Reply | More

DS is 2, and I think he can climb over the gate, but at least it would slow him down...especially at night. He's used to opening his door and walking out at home, but he doesn't have a gate like this at home. [ Reply | More

kmart, TRU, BRU will all have gates. Or you could go to any store near her house and buy them there. I have the Safety First step through gate that is pressure mounted so you don't have to drill into the wall, but has a gate you can open so you don't have to step over it. [ Reply | More

bring one of those things that covers the doorknob so they can't open it, much smaller to lug around [ Reply | More
