FAQs

What's the ideal water temperature for a baby's bath?

Around 37.8°C — lukewarm, similar to body temperature. A bath thermometer takes the guesswork out and many double as a fun bath toy.

Do I need a bath rinser?

They're not essential, but a bath rinser makes hair washing far less stressful by keeping water and suds out of your baby's eyes.

How often should I wash my baby's hair?

Newborns typically only need their hair washed 2–3 times a week — daily washing can dry out delicate skin and scalp.

What's the difference between baby moisturiser and body wash?

Body wash cleanses during the bath itself, while moisturiser is applied afterwards to lock in hydration and soothe dry skin.
