The benefits of a bath
In addition to hygiene, it's a moment of soothing, exchange and fusion between you and your child. The bath is an opportunity for your child to discover his or her own body, and for you, the parent, to practice hygiene. Bathing allows newborns to rediscover the sensation of water they had when they were still in utero. This sensation can trigger a wave of soothing, and even induce sleep!
But this can be a stressful time for both you and your baby. To reassure everyone, the technique of swaddling in a swaddling can be a great idea. Your child will feel safe and secure, and will stay nice and warm when wrapped up. Do you know Sonia Krief? For those of you who don't know her yet, Sonia is a nursery assistant. We discovered her when she appeared on the Maison des Maternelles.
With " Le Bain de Sonia ", she has dedicated her career to the well-being of newborn babies, particularly through bathing. Le Bain de Sonia is a bath that follows a precise sequence, reminding the baby of his or her life in utero. The baby relaxes gradually, then completely. The baby is fully immersed in the water. The baby's face is under the jet of water, and he or she gently returns to the fetal position. It's a magical experience for newborns and parents alike. Great emotions guaranteed... Whether in a bathtub, a free-standing bath or a bath seat, in a basin or directly in a sink, it's very important that you and your baby feel at ease. What's more, to ensure your baby doesn't catch a cold, the ideal water temperature is 37°C. We often wonder when is the best time to wash our baby... In the morning? In the evening? Before or after eating? At Cocoeko, we recommend bathing your little ones when they're wide awake and relaxed. Together, let's discover the made-in-France products that make bath time even sweeter...
How do I prepare and equip myself for the bath?
Magique bath apron
When baby is still very small, and bath time can be complicated, we at Cocoeko have found the perfect accessory to make your life easier! We've come up with a parent-baby bath cape. Also known as a butterfly bath cape or bath apron, we're sure you won't be able to do without it.
We'll tell you how it works: parents hook the end of the cape around their neck with a snap, then take their baby in their arms to snuggle up warmly. The "butterfly towel" is a unique and innovative system that leaves parents' hands free to wrap their baby after a bath and keep him or her warm. This practical product lets you spend special time with your child. This large towel with a little baby hood will make your life easier! What's more, like all Cocoeko products, this bath towel is made in France from Oeko-Tex-certified fabrics, guaranteed free from harmful substances and environmentally friendly. It's time to get cracking!
Petit Mousse bath cape
You can also opt for a "traditional" bath cape. It's worth noting that all our bath towels are made from ultra-absorbent, soft bamboo sponge! Cocoeko's little plus? All bathrobes can be personalized with your child's name embroidered on them! Softer and softer with every wash, it's the perfect bath cape.
The Responsible Towel
At Cocoeko, we care about our planet. That's why we've decided to use our fabric scraps to create new products. Our scraps are reclaimed to make baby towels! Very practical, they enable babies to learn to dry themselves independently. They can also be used to wipe their little hands, or their mouths after brushing their teeth. Trendy, soft and made from Oeko-tex fabrics... they've got it all.
