Baby Mini Set Organic Toiletries

These Baby Mini Sets are a set of three of the most popular Nom Nom unfragranced products in a recycled Kraft bag with cord tie and tag. They are a smaller version of the multipurpose Baby Butter, Baby Oil and Baby Bath.

The Baby Butter is 15ml, here are the details:

This unfragranced butter contains shea, calendula and evening primrose oil to soothe patches of dry or irritated skin. Jojoba’s liquid wax provides a non sticky barrier to gently protect making it ideal for a baby’s bottom, around the mouth for teething dribble, to soothe skin made sore by runny noses and on the cheeks to protect against the elements. With a delicious, gentle, natural coconut aroma.

Without
Without oils high in oleic fatty acids which may not be compatible with a baby’s delicate skin, without beeswax - perfect for your babies face as it won’t block the pores and without essential oils.

Massage –To help prevent and treat nappy rash it can be beneficial to let your baby spend some time without their nappy (and a good way to include some time on their tummy). After a little airing try including some massage for the bottom – the body’s biggest muscle! You can use Baby Butter to help protect and soothe the area before putting their nappy back on. Using your fingertips massage all over the buttocks in small circular movements, avoiding any sore areas.

Nutrition – Moisturise your baby’s skin from within (and boost brain and nerve health at the same time) by including sources of essential fatty acids from the age of six months when weaning. Flaxseed oil, rich in both Omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids, is an excellent addition to the diet, particularly if your baby is vegetarian and will not be eating fish. Buy this oil in a dark bottle, keep refrigerated to protect it and do not heat. One teaspoon a day is sufficient. Add to warm or cold cereals or blend into natural yoghurt sweetened with fruit puree.

The Baby Oil is 50lm, here are the details:

A nourishing organic baby oil, rich in linoleic fatty acids from sunflower and starflower, to soften your baby’s skin, protect their delicate skin barrier and clear cradle cap. Starflower (borage) with its high content of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) has been shown to be particularly beneficial. The addition of coconut oil softens the blend and gives a gentle natural coconut aroma making it ideal for massage. Our pump cap makes dispensing easy.

Warm in your hands before sharing a lovely massage with your baby. For cradle cap gently massage half a teaspoon of oil on the scalp twice a day for two weeks. Leave for at least fifteen minutes before gently combing or brushing to remove any softened flakes. Thereafter use three times a week. Use Baby Bath when needed to clean excess oils from the hair.

Without
Massage - The legs are a good place to introduce baby massage. Begin by warming Baby Oil in your hands before holding your baby’s ankle with one hand. With your other hand around the top of their thigh, fingers on top and thumb underneath, stroke down towards the ankle. In a smooth transition swap hands at the ankle so the opposite one supports. Place your free hand at the top of the thigh and repeat in a flowing motion. Keep your fingers close together as you massage.

Nutrition – If your baby has cradle cap some dietary interventions may help. One possible cause of the condition is fungal infection so if you or your baby has had antibiotics or you otherwise suspect a fungal component and are still breastfeeding:

Try to avoid refined sugars which feed yeasts

Include live bio yoghurt

Supplement your diet with an acidophilus supplement

Babies can also be given an infant specific supplement containing bifidus infantis.

Poor intestinal flora may lead to biotin insufficiency as this B vitamin is manufactured by the good bacteria in our intestines. This vitamin is needed by the body for the metabolism of essential fats and has a role in promoting healthy skin, hair and nerves.

The richest dietary sources of biotin are liver and egg yolks but it is also found in meat, dairy and wholegrains. Avoid foods using raw egg, such as homemade mayonnaise, as this contains a protein which binds biotin making it unavailable for absorption.

As cradle cap is also an inflammatory condition include sources of essential fatty acids (from fish or cold pressed oils) to encourage the production of anti inflammatory prostaglandins.

Nutrition – When deciding what to give your baby to drink, water should always be your first choice after breast or formula milk. If a preference for water isn’t established at weaning, children can grow up favouring sweetened drinks to quench their thirst. If they don’t immediately take to the taste (or lack) of pure water, persevere. By continuing to offer it most babies will develop a liking and come to accept it (this is also a good rule for any food initially rejected when weaning).

Fruit juice can be a useful source of vitamins and is a drink parents often give, particularly if their children are fussy about eating whole fruits. When included they should be well mixed with plenty of water to dilute the fruit acids and protect the teeth.

Avoid anything labelled as squash, fruit nectar or fruit drink which will also contain sugar or artificial sweeteners
