Babycare: Back to Basics leaflet

Baby Care Leaflet

The following information is included in the leaflet:

Introduction:

Recent research suggests that it is safer to bath your baby in plain water for at least the first month of life.

At birth, the top layer of your baby’s skin is very thin and absorbent. This means it is more sensitive to damage from germs, chemicals and water loss. Over the first month (longer in premature infants) your baby’s skin matures and develops its own natural protective barrier. The maintenance of this barrier is vital and damage can lead to the development of skin conditions.

It is important to remember that anything placed on, in or around your baby has the potential to harm.

With this in mind, the following guidelines will help to give your baby the best possible start in life.
