Infants and toddlers are the most vulnerable group of children. Families have different levels of concern about injury prevention. Therefore, the precautions they take may differ from one family to another. In Turkey, there is a lack of injury prevention programs for children. This situation exposes children to dangers. This study describes what types of injuries mothers are concerned about their children, what they do about injury prevention, and which information they need to keep their children safe. Results showed that while most mothers saw their children’s potential of injury as moderate or high, they felt competent to protect them. On the other hand, a significant number of mothers still had problems such as leaving their children alone in the kitchen and not taking precautions access to hot objects. Mothers needed the safety information most were first aid and safety rules.
