This soothing baby bath milk is handmade by a small company in the countryside, near Manchester. It’s made with just a few natural ingredients, you don’t need scents or essential oils for babies. Just add 25g for an average-sized baby bath.
Sold in a beautiful zero waste box. All it contains is French white clay, oat kernel flour and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda). The perfect treat to leave skin nourished, it’s suitable for nappy rash, sensitive skin and eczema.
Unless there is pee and poo (!), babies don’t need a daily bath, just ‘top and tail’ (hold them on your knee or lay on a changing mat) to wash the face, neck, hands and bottom. Never use cotton buds to clean inside a baby’s ears (the cause of nearly all ear infections).
NHS has a good 2-minute video by a midwife, on how to safely bathe babies. Never leave babies alone for a second (even with older children). Do not use baby bath seats, these can quickly detach and drown babies, even in a few centimetres of water.
Run cold water first (then add hot water, testing with your wrist or elbow). Keep your baby’s head clear of water. Don’t bathe straight after feeds, or if hungry or tired.
