Baby Hygiene 101
Becoming a parent opens up a world of questions, especially when it comes to baby hygiene. But we’ve got the rundown on how to keep your LO smelling and feeling fresh all day!
Basic Hygiene Needs of a Baby
Your baby's hygiene is crucial to their comfort and well-being. Start by ensuring regular diaper changes throughout the day. Use gentle wipes or warm water with a soft cloth to clean their sensitive areas, and don't forget to apply a diaper cream to protect their skin.
How Often Should You Bathe Your Baby?
The question of how often to bathe your baby can be a puzzler, but fret not! Two to three baths per week during their first year is usually sufficient. Overbathing can lead to dryness, so embrace the less-is-more approach while keeping your baby fresh and cozy.
The Best Products for a Soothing Bath Time
When it comes to bath time, choosing the right products is vital. Opt for gentle, hypoallergenic options like Tender Care's Head to Toe Baby Wash and Shampoo. After washing, keep their skin dry with Tender Care's Pink Soft Baby Powder. And, when considering a cleansing bar, Tender Care's Sakura Scent Baby Soap is a fragrant delight.
Embrace the Adventure
Bath time is an adventure! Let your baby explore and splash to their heart's content using Tender Care's Lavender & Oat Milk Baby Wash. It's not just about cleanliness; it's an opportunity for bonding and sensory development.
Follow Their Cues
Your baby is unique, and so are their preferences. Pay attention to their cues during bath time. Some babies find Tender Care's Jasmine Cotton Baby Wash soothing, while others might prefer a product with a different scent.
Keep It Safe and Simple
Safety is paramount during bath time. Always support your baby's head and neck, especially if they're still young. Keep the water temperature warm but not too hot, and ensure all bath time products, like Tender Care's Classic Mild Baby Soap, are within arm's reach.
The After-Bath Ritual
Once bath time is done, wrap your baby in a soft, fluffy towel. Gently apply a baby lotion to lock in moisture and keep their skin smooth. Remember, a little massage with baby lotion can also be a soothing way to end the day using Tender Care's Lavender and Oat Milk Baby Powder to keep their skin extra soft.
A Happy, Healthy Baby
Now that you've mastered the basics of baby hygiene, you're well on your way to becoming a hygiene hero for your little one. So go forth, embrace the giggles, and relish the cuddles – you've got this, amazing parents!
