Toddler arriving in two months, need safety wall

With the family due out in two months we need to put up a small safety wall on top of the current terrace wall, as there is a 2 meter drop there, which does not combine well with a 16 month old grandson. We plan to put up a two breeze block high wall to act as both a safety barrier and a wind brake for the house garden come patio. The top of the rock wall that holds the house terrace up is not exactly flat or totally level but with careful work should be OK.
The wall will exists of 3 sections separated with cast concrete piers on one side of the steps and a short section between the steps and the house ( though this bit is not so urgently needed as there is a flower bed there.). I hope to have this finished and a gate added above the steps if there is time.
Well I got both ends of the wall stared, and I hope that they are level....
