Bond with your baby this Spring with Colief® Baby Massage Oil - Colief

Baby massage is a wonderful way for parents to bond with their little ones and provide a soothing and calming experience for their babies. Did you know it can also help with your baby’s development, circulation, and overall health?

Baby massage can be hugely beneficial for baby, improving baby’s sleep, reducing stress behaviours, improving motor skills development and helping with bonding between family members. For babies suffering with colic or trapped wind, baby massage is proven to be of great value too.

When it comes to baby massage, using a good quality massage oil is key and will enhance the experience for both the parent and the baby. Colief^® Baby Massage Oil contains 100% natural ingredients and has excellent moisturising and skin care properties for babies. This nourishing oil contains Sweet Almond Oil, Lavender Oil, Jojoba and Vitamin E and absorbs quickly to help soften dry skin, making it the perfect product to introduce into baby’s daily bathing and bedtime routine.

We’ve shared a few of our top tips for successful baby massage below:

• Choose a time when your baby is at their most settled. It is good for you to be as relaxed as possible. If tension is present, it might be sensed by your baby causing them to become unsettled. The flow of relaxation will be felt through relaxed touch.
• Clean your hands before applying the oil. Apply the oil to your hands and rub hands together. Ask permission from your baby. Asking permission enhances healthy communication, respect, trust and teaches body autonomy.
• For tummy massage to soothe; rub oil in hands as warm as possible – this acts an immediate soothing and warming sensation for the tummy especially if baby is experiencing discomfort.
