There are lots of ways to use essential oils to support little ones, but with babies we need to be extra cautious using them directly on the skin (that is why the range is smaller for babies), as their skin is very delicate and sensitive.
Tips for using Essential Oil for Babies
Always dilute your essential oil with Carrier Oils before applying to the skin, this is especially important for the sensitive skin of babies and children. See our Top 10 essential oils to try in 2022 (please note not all of these are suitable for baby).
How to use Essential Oils for Baby
- Using a diffuser or vaporiser in your home to release the essential oils into the atmosphere is the perfect way to enjoy them. Our range of Essential Oils for Babies include specially crafted blends for clear airways and a calming atmosphere for sleep time.
- Baby massage is a wonderful way to bond with your little one, while nourishing their skin. You can use a carrier oil, like sweet almond, and add a drop of rose or chamomile essential oil to make a comforting treat for your baby. Or find a blended oil in our Baby Oil & Skincare range.
- Use essential oils from our Essential Oils for Cleaning range to freshen up the nursery, and Reusable Nappies, or to make your own natural cleaners.
