Baby bathtime has never been so relaxing.

It’s really gentle on your baby’s new and delicate skin and fits in perfectly to Jo Tantum’s Seven Secrets of Sleep routine.
So what do we put in it?
Organic lavender is well known for its calming properties and Roman chamomile soothes and relaxes. The combination of the essential oils in a dermatologically tested hair and body wash makes for a holistic bathtime experience . You can be sure baby’s delicate skin is being well looked after and he is enjoying his pre-bedtime soak.
How you should use it
There’s no need to go ‘over the top’ with our Hair and Body Wash. You aren’t looking for loads of bubbles – our product is intentionally free from the chemical agents that create lots of bubbles – just a way to gently wash your baby and make him clean and comfortable and totally relaxed at bedtime.
The pump bottle is very economical: just pump a pea-sized amount into your hands and apply to baby’s skin and hair or add it to a sponge and gently massage your baby before rinsing. Or you can simply add a teeny bit to his bathwater and then let baby lie and enjoy the lovely smells and sensation.
10 steps to Sleepytime
- Go into the baby’s room and pop a few drops of Sleepytime Room Aroma into a bowl of warm water. It will fill the nursery with the smell of lavender and other calming essential oils.
- Get the bath ready with tepid water and either add Sleepytime Hair and Body Wash to the bathwater or use a tiny amount in your hands, then wash your baby from top to bottom.
- Carry your baby into a darkened nursery and lie him on a dry towel or changing mat (remember some changing mats can be really cold on baby’s bare skin) before massaging him with Sleepytime Organic Massage Oil.
- Dress your baby in PJ’ss and a sleeping bag depending on the temperature. Younger babies love being swaddled in a light natural material and our Sweet Pea Swaddle is perfect.
- Pick your baby up and give him a kiss and a cuddle.
- Talk softly, older babies will enjoy a story time and this will remain part of his bedtime routine for many years. Even young babies enjoy the rhythm of words.
- Give your baby his last feed of the day in the nursery.
- Wind, talking quietly and reassuringly.
- Lay him down, in his cot or Moses basket. Pat him gently.
- Say goodnight and come out of the room.
