It's good that others have mentioned the Teflon thing, I forgot to do so...And since this is your very first pet parrot/bird, it's extremely important that you stop using items in your home that contain a Teflon coating, or any other non-stick coating that contains the chemical compounds that can off-gas when they hit a certain temperature. These chemical compounds are called "Fluorinated Compounds", and there are dozens of them, the most common ones being PFOA and PTFE. Unfortunately all Teflon non-stick coatings contain them, and the main culprits that kill the most birds are pots, pans, and other cookware and bakeware that have a non-stick Teflon coating. In addition to pots and pans, there are a lot of other small appliances that have these coatings that are almost instantly lethal to pet birds, the main ones being all George Foreman Grills, so if you have one of those you can't use it inside of your house anymore, they are deadly, along with most electric Griddles and a lot of electric Space-Heaters. Also, you cannot ever use the Self-Cleaning mode on your oven, as that is almost always deadly as well...
The best thing to do from now on is to call the manufacturer of any small appliances you plan on buying and asking them whether or not they are "Bird-Safe", and also if they contain any Teflon at all, or other Fluorinated Compounds such as PFOA or PTFE. This is becoming such a big deal that most manufacturers actually know the answers to these questions now.
As far as your pots and pans go, if they are the typical ones that have Teflon non-stick coatings, you just cannot use them any longer. Instead, you must use either Cast-Iron, Stainless-Steel, real Copper, or the most common and cheapest option are the Ceramic non-stick pots and pans, which are actually now very common and very cheap, just as cheap as the Teflon-coated pots and pans. I bought a set of high-end Ceramic pots and pans at both TJ Maxx and at Ross, one was a 12-piece set and the other a 16-piece set, and they both cost me under $50! So any Ceramic non-stick pots/pans set will be safe...
****Just so you're aware, you cannot just shut the door to the room your bird is in and cook with Teflon pots/pans, George Foreman Grill, use a space heater with Teflon, etc. somewhere else in the house. The off-gassed fumes from these compounds travel everywhere, underneath doors and seemingly through walls, as birds that have been 2 floors away and behind a closed door have died instantly while their owners were cooking that far away. And that's just it, the birds usually die within minutes of inhaling one little whiff of the fumes, and there isn't a thing you can do once they inhale the fumes...People have tried to run their birds outside for air, etc., but typically they breath the fumes in once, they pretty much immediately start to have labored and heavy breathing, they become unsteady on their feet and fall over, and then die within a few minutes...So it's that important.
Also, no burning any type of candles, incense, essential oils or any other oils in burners or diffusers, or using any regular cleaners anymore, as the scents/fumes from all of these will also kill your bird. You need to use all-natural and unscented cleaners from now on...Birds are extremely sensitive to all fumes/odors/scents...
And please always ask any questions you might have at any time, please don't ever hesitate to do so...
