Please spam me with toddler proofing and toddler care tips!

I'm going to be babysitting a little toddler, I'm mostly experienced with young children and I'm pregnant with my first child (I haven't baby/toddler proofed yet) and thought I'd have more time to get ready but I need to provide a safe and enriching environment quickly. So please spam me with toddler care tips and toddler safety tips, too! Please and thank you.

Stair gates should be in place top and bottom of stairs. Fire gaurds around fires. Cuboard locks. Electrical covers in place on all sockets. No glasses left around. Switch oven off at mains or keep door locked to kitchen depending if you have open planned property which would work best. Any candles or heavy ornaments need to be put up out of reach or away. Candles should never be lit with young children around. Leads or cords on curtains or electrical appliances should be out of reach.

Block any stair cases with gates, if you have open outlets, get the covers for them so the kids don't stick their fingers in there! And get the safety lock things for cupboards and cabinets! And when they're old enough to sleep in a big kid bed, get some of the door knob child lock things so they can't get out and get into things.
