🛁 Bath Time
Everything we use to make bath time smooth, safe, and cozy. From gentle cleansers to the softest towels, these are the items that make bath night one of my favorite parts of the day.
Lightweight, easy to rinse, and keeps baby supported without slipping.
Angelcare Baby Bath Support Gray - Under 6 Months
Floats in the water and gives an instant reading so you know the temperature is just right — no guessing or worry about water being too hot or too cold.
Room & Bath Thermometer - Crocodile - Dream Baby
IYKYK — rinsing without getting water in their face is a battle. This pitcher’s soft edge sits right against the forehead so I can rinse quickly without tears (his or mine).
Control The Flow Rinser – Frida
These are ridiculously soft but still hold up in the wash. We use them every bath and they’re gentle enough for even the tiniest baby skin.
Kyapoo Baby Washcloths 12 Pack 12x12 Microfiber
My favorite part of bath time is wrapping him up in this. It’s warm, cozy, and absorbs quickly so I’m not chasing him around with a towel while he wiggles. The decorative hood is so cute — nothing like seeing him toddle around with a little bear on h...
Just Born: Hooded Towels
Our go-to bath set. We’ve used the shampoo/body wash since birth because it’s gentle on skin and eyes, cleans without drying, and is perfect for sensitive skin. We recently added the matching conditioner, and it keeps hair soft and tangle-free withou...
Honest Shampoo & Body Wash + Conditioner (Fragrance-Free, Sensitive Skin)
🪮 Cradle Cap Care
The simple, budget-friendly tools and products that helped clear cradle cap without buying an entire kit. Gentle, effective, and easy to work into a normal bath routine.
Gentle but effective for loosening cradle cap flakes without scratching delicate skin. I like that it’s easy to hold!
DermaFrida the SkinSoother – Frida
A simple, inexpensive staple that works wonders for cradle cap. I massage a little onto the scalp before using the scrubber, and it helps lift flakes while keeping the skin soft.
Johnson's® Baby Oil
🧴 Skin & Hair Care
The go-to lotions, creams, and gentle tools that keep skin soft, prevent irritation, and make post-bath snuggles even sweeter.
My everyday go-to lotion after bath. It’s gentle, fragrance-free, and soaks in quickly without feeling greasy. Perfect for keeping skin soft without irritation.
Honest Sensitive Face + Body Lotion (Fragrance Free)
A backup I always keep on hand. It’s light, has a soft clean scent, and leaves skin feeling smooth — especially nice during colder months when skin can dry out faster.
Dove Baby Lotion
This was my absolute favorite at the start — thick, soothing, and cleared up redness quickly. But out of nowhere, the texture got watery, which was disappointing. Still worth mentioning because when it’s right, it works great.
Diaper Rash Cream, Sensitive™ 2.5 oz
My current go-to for diaper rash. It’s thick, stays put, and works fast. I like that I can use it for both prevention and clearing up irritation.
Boudreaux's Butt Paste
Soft bristles for gentle brushing and a comb for little tangles. I’ve used this a few times after bath to smooth hair or brush the scalp, and it’s nice knowing it’s safe for sensitive skin. Plus, it’s easy to hold and clean.
