Safe use of essential oils for babies: tips and products

We are often asked whether essential oils are safe to use on babies. Personally, we believe you need to be very careful with little ones. A baby may absorb the chemicals that by nature The body cannot yet process the compounds found in essential oils effectively. We therefore advise against using essential oils on babies under 6 months. For the very youngest babies, we therefore offer this safe product Baby Tools developed using the frequencies of essential oils and crystals.

After 6 months, your little one will be able to process the substances a bit better, so you can start using certain essential oils. However, it’s important to always bear in mind the following when it comes to little ones:; Less is more!

To make things easy, we’ve put together a lovely range of gentle baby products, specially designed for little ones aged 6 months and over, formulated with safe essential oils.

Nothing is as annoying as a little one with a blocked nose. Your child may find it particularly difficult at night, which can eventually lead to a broken night’s sleep. It’s really not nice! That’s why we’ve developed Cough & Cold, whose scent many parents find pleasant during periods of a cold.

The blend Cough & Cold We’ve produced a range of different products. So there’s bound to be something useful for you.

Rubbing oil, A lovely product that’s ready to use straight away. Use the pipette to apply a few drops of the oil (see the guide below) to your hand and rub it in until it feels nice and warm. Then apply it to your little one’s chest and between their shoulders. It also works wonders when applied to the soles of their feet before bedtime!

Roll on, It’s really handy to always have with you. Rub a little onto your own hands and apply it to your child’s skin.

Essential oils for babies, Great for diffusing throughout the room using a diffuser. Don’t leave the diffuser on all day. If your baby is still very young (just 6 months old), it’s best not to place the diffuser next to the playpen, but a little further away from your baby. The scent spreads well throughout the room, ensuring your baby gets plenty of the scent.

Massage oil, to give your little one a lovely massage. By massaging your little one with love and care, you’re also creating a special moment just for the two of you. Babies really enjoy this. Make sure the room is warm and that your baby has a nice, soft place to lie on. Have some warm towels ready to keep your baby cosy. Put on some gentle music and start the massage. Don’t apply too much pressure – a gentle touch is really all it takes. Make sure you’re sitting comfortably yourself so that you can enjoy this moment too and relax a little 😉. The massage oils are based on Sesame oil and Chamomile Macerate.
