Latex paint should be applied in a well-ventilated area. Make sure to open a window or turn a fan on in the room when applying the paint. After a couple of days the smell of the fresh paint will go away. Then it will be fine for the baby.

You can use either enamel (oil-based) paint or latex (water-based) paint. If you are using latex paint, you need to use a primer (undercoat) first. The paint store will have a special primer that allows you to paint latex over enamel. If you are going to do this, it is also a good idea to either sand the enamel paint before you paint over it, or wash it with TSP (trisodium phosphate) cleaner to remove the gloss.
you can paint over latex paint with latex enamel.

Paint fumes are dangerous to anyone, but since 'latex' is a water-based paint, there is less likely to be dangerous fumes. Still, you should never paint with a baby in close proximity.
