What to look out for when caring for your baby

Baby care is very important. Thus, it is very important to pay attention to a few specific things.
-Wash your baby's hands and face in the morning and evening with warm water and a clean washcloth, soap is not necessary.
-Make sure you don't wash the baby too often. Once or twice a week is enough, otherwise the acid mantle of the skin will be attacked too much. You should also add a few drops of high-quality vegetable oil (preferably almond or olive oil), breast milk, or cream to the bath. This helps protect the skin's acid mantle and compensate for any loss of moisture.
-If you want to do something good for your baby, give him a massage with oil, which is not only good for the skin, but also helps your baby relax.

How to cut fingernails and toenails correctly

After birth, you don't normally have to worry about cutting your baby's fingernails and toenails. Of course, there are exceptions and your baby could hurt itself with its fingernails, so it's best to keep your eyes open.

Here is what you should pay attention to

Do it step by step, it is better to work slowly rather than too quickly. It is best to follow the natural curve. If you only cut small pieces of the nail at a time, you reduce the risk of hurting your baby. It is important to ensure you do not cut your baby's nails too short. The cuticles of babies grow very far forward, and you should be aware of this. Always remember, Babies don't have much patience, so, you may not always get all the nails cut at once, but that is ok!

Eyes and Ears Care

Cleaning ears the right way

Babies also produce earwax which needs to be cleaned from time to time. But don't use cotton swabs. All cotton swabs do is only push the wax deeper into the ear. Instead, use cotton wool or the end of a cloth nappy.

Clean eyes - Better vision

The best way to clean your eyes is with a cotton swab. Soak it in lukewarm, sterile water beforehand and then wipe from the outside inwards, i.e. towards the nose.

Clear nose - Clear air

Since a baby cannot blow their nose as adults can, you need special aids to remove secretions.
With our nasal aspirator, removing accumulated secretions from your baby's nose is made easy and gentle. This makes it easier for them to breathe, sleep, and eat when they have cold symptoms.
The nasal aspirator is specially made to be a particularly gentle and noiseless alternative to electrical devices. This is because it removes secretions simply, safely and effectively by gently sucking on the mouthpiece. The suction strength can be adjusted manually at any time to gently remove secretions from your baby's stuffy nose without any fuss.

The correct dental care for your child

Between your baby's first 6th and 8th months, the time has come. The first milk tooth has appeared! But, now you need to start proper dental care. You don't know how? Don't worry, we can help you.

The first milk tooth appears around the six to eight-month mark. Dental care should start from the first tooth by brushing at least once a day. Finger sticks, for example, are good for this. As soon as the first tooth appears, dental care can begin. At the very beginning, it's enough to brush the baby's teeth with a damp washcloth or a fingerbrush. If more teeth come in, you should use a children's toothbrush and toothpaste for babies and children.

To make sure that your child does not forget to brush any part of the tooth, it is best to use the TOI method:

T = The top of the teeth: The top of the teeth are the chewing surfaces of the teeth. They are to be brushed first with back-and-forth movements.

O = The outer surfaces: The outer surfaces are cleaned afterwards with circular movements. The teeth are placed on top of each other during this process.

I = The inner surfaces: Finally, brush the inner surfaces from red to white (from the gums to the teeth).
