We know what a wonderful time bath time can be. It is a time to love, play, bond and nourish. A time for your baby to feel calm and connected with their parents and their surroundings. There are holes around the body of the tub to ensure that excess water gets adequately drained, so there is no risk of baby submerging in the water. Every type of baby bathtub is a little different, but there are some common features to look for to ensure that it’s hygienic and safe for your little one.

In fact, it can be a more natural transition for the baby because they are already accustomed to being in an enclosed fetal position. Proper Support. The baby bathtub you choose should offer appropriate support for your baby’s age. If the bathtub is for a newborn or young infant, the bathtub should offer optimal cradling support for his head, shoulders, and body. Non-Skid Surfaces. Make sure the baby bathtub has non-skin surfaces both on the inside of the tub AND the outside of the tub. This will ensure the tub is stable and won’t move around, tilt over, or cause your baby to slip. Standalone Tubs: These are mini bathtubs that can be placed in a larger bathtub or even be used on the floor by themselves. These are typically larger plastic basins that you fill with water. Often they have different position options for both younger infants and older babies who can sit up. That said, you probably wouldn’t use this kind past the age of 6 months because they tend to be smaller in size. A beautiful set that has everything baby needs for bath time.
