Jessica’s Tips for Tiny Newborns

Warm Towel Hack

Throw your Parker Baby hooded bath towel in the dryer before bath time. A warm, cozy towel will make your baby’s transition from bath to dry much more comfortable.

Popsicle Bath!

For teething or sick babies, try a popsicle bath. It's a fun way to soothe them and make bath time enjoyable (and it keeps them entertained) :)

Tabi’s Toddler Teeth Brushing Trick

Get the Sugar Bugs Out

Keep your toddler wrapped in a hooded bath towel while you brush their teeth. The snug towel helps prevent them from pulling the toothbrush away, and they might even enjoy the process!

Sarah’s Warm and Relaxing Bath Tips

Warm & Cozy

Use a Parker Baby muslin swaddle in the bath to keep your baby warm. Pour water over the swaddle throughout the bath to maintain heat.

Bath Time Safety

Always use a water temperature detector to ensure the bath water is just right.

Create a Relaxing Atmosphere

Dim the lights and use a lamp instead of overhead lights to create a soothing atmosphere. Adding a sound machine can enhance the calming environment.

Emily’s Sibling Bonding Bath Time

Get the Siblings Involved!

Adding an older sibling to the bath can show the little one that bath time is safe and fun. It's a wonderful opportunity for the older sibling to help care for the baby and build a sweet bond. Plus, as they grow, it turns into great bath time entertainment!

Emma’s Fun and Calming Bath Tips

Glowing Fun

Add glow sticks to the bath and turn out the lights! It's so fun and the low light helps settle the babies down.

Reset With a Bath

Sometimes we use bath time as a "reset". If it's an off day or kids just need to change things up, I'll give them a bath outside of their normal schedule. Just like an adult, the bath can be a relaxing time with bubbles and good scented soap, calming music, and low lights.

Bath time doesn't have to be a chore. With these hacks from seasoned moms, you can turn it into a cozy, fun, and bonding experience for you and your baby. Try these tips and see how they transform your bath time routine!
