If you ever find yourself in a fire, get low. On all fours if you have to.
You should have at least two exists from your apartment. And when you are escaping fire, always open the doors very carefully. First like 5cm to see if there is any smoke coming from behind the door. And hold tight, because fires can suck/blow doors open with those huge air pressure variations.
And perhaps most importantly, do not let anybody to have anything flammable under the stairs in the common staircase. This is specifically against the fire code practically everywhere. But it's also common place for mothers to put their strollers.
