A fingernail clipper safety system for trimming an infant's fingernails includes a pair of fingernail clippers. The pair of fingernail clippers may be manipulated thereby facilitating the fingernail clippers to trim an infant's fingernails. A guard is coupled to the fingernail clippers. The guard is positioned on the movable jaws to abut the infant's fingertip when the fingernail clippers trim the infant's fingernail. Thus, the fingernail clippers are inhibited from cutting the infant's fingertip.
