Abstract
Abstract A securement for restraining an infant on a dressing table employs a pair of straps and a three-slot-slide fastener. The straps are anchored at one end at opposite sides of the dressing table. Both straps are passed through the center slot in the fastener. Then each strap is looped back through the adjacent outside fastener slot to form a non-sliding anchoring point at the middle of the dressing table top for the two straps. In use, the free ends of the straps are engaged around the waist of the infant and fastened together so that the infant is held securely at the middle of the dressing table.
