Hi Hazel !

Welcome to UKCS!! the friendliest site on the web!  Pull up a chair new friend!

Well, to answer your questions as quickly as poss,

1, basically, you can lock your tent, as you could just slash your way in with a sharp knife, so you keep valuables out of sight or locked in your car.

2, you can put your child in their own tent as soon as you think they are old enough and are happy to be on their own,  some sites may charge extra for the extra tent, so that could also be a factor for you. 

3, alot of people use special hanging steriliser bags, but if you have electric hook up in your tent then you could take your plug in one.  i stopped sterilising at 6 months anyway as my 2 were crawling then and had alsorts in their mouths!!

hope this helps you!

hello hazel

We took our daughter last year when she was 5 months old and just bought a cheap cold water steriliser and milton tablets - you just have to be carefull where you put it so it doesn't get knocked over - especially with all those kids!

As for security, you will find that the large majority of campers are very helpfull, friendly and honest, so we just put and valuables like wallets camera etc in the car when we go out (you will be needing them anyway) and zip all the doors, never had a problem so far - touch wood!

Good luck and enjoy yourselves!
