Bath Time Tips for First-Time Parents
Bath time can be a fun and bonding experience for both you and your baby. However, for first-time parents, it might feel a little daunting at first. With the right products and a few simple tips, bath time can become a calming, enjoyable routine. Jumpy Moo's is here to help with eco-friendly and baby-safe essentials like bamboo washcloths, hooded towels, and diaper liners.
1. Gather All Essentials Beforehand
Before starting the bath, gather everything you need: a soft Jumpy Moo’s Bamboo Washcloth, a gentle baby soap, and a Jumpy Moo’s Organic Hooded Towel to wrap your baby in afterward. Having everything within reach helps ensure a smooth bath time.
2. Keep the Water Temperature Just Right
Use a thermometer or the inside of your wrist to check the water temperature. It should be warm, not hot—around 37°C (98.6°F) is ideal for keeping your baby comfortable and safe.
3. Use Gentle, Organic Bath Products
Choose baby-friendly, organic products for cleansing your baby’s skin. Harsh chemicals can irritate sensitive skin, so go for mild, plant-based shampoos and washes. Pair this with a soft Jumpy Moo’s Bamboo Washcloth to gently clean your baby without irritation.
4. Support Your Baby Safely
Always keep one hand on your baby during the bath for safety. A non-slip mat in the tub or sink can help prevent accidents, and make sure to always support your baby’s head and neck.
5. Wrap Baby in a Soft Hooded Towel After Bathing
After the bath, gently lift your baby out of the water and immediately wrap them in a Jumpy Moo’s Organic Hooded Towel. These towels are ultra-soft, absorbent, and made from eco-friendly bamboo, perfect for keeping your baby warm and dry.
