Are there child proof door knob covers?
My sister and nephew are moving in with me. My sister said I need to child proof my entire house, including my door knobs. I’ve never lived with a toddler and have no idea about any of this. Are there actually child proof door knob covers?

As surprising as it may seem—yes! Child proof door knob covers do exist.
Toddlers and younger kids are known for getting into things they’re not supposed to, and opening doors can get them into a lot of trouble or seriously injured. Thankfully, there are a huge number of door knob covers on the market, so you shouldn’t have any issue finding the right one for your home.
In most instances, the door knob cover encases the entire knob, allowing you to lock the door and/or prevent a child from leaving. The cover typically makes it difficult for children to grip the door and turn it. Some knobs also have finger holes that you use to turn the knob. Younger children don’t usually have the dexterity needed, making it a simple solution for you and your home.
Since you’re unsure where to start, visit a baby or children’s store. Target, Amazon, and Walmart should also have plenty of child proofing options for you.
Additionally, since your sister is moving in with you, make sure you have the proper coverage on your home or renters insurance with
