I have a baby walker, and when I mentioned that I had one at my doctor's office, she said that they are not safe for babies anymore, that is why they are banned here in Canada, but I told her that we watch him very carefully, and also, we don't have any stairs for him to fall down, so she said oh ok...so as long as you don't have any stairs you should be fine because that is why they are banned, because there were too many accidents with kids falling down stairs in them. and my son loves it, we don't use it much anymore, now that he's crawling around and pulling himself up on things now, not fully walking yet, but almost! he is 9 months :)
