Be gentle. If your little one doesn’t like being bathed then chances are they’ll hate having their hair washed too. Choose mild shampoos – such as ecostore Baby Shampoo – and talk in a gentle soothing voice. Teach them to look at the ceiling (we say “who’s in the aeroplane?”) or give them a dry washer to put over their eyes.

The Bub Hub Crew is the name we have given to our esteemed team of award-winning* staff writers. We’re a small team. Small, not short. In fact some of us are quite tall. Tall enough to be quite good at netball. When we put our heads together we are can cover a wide-range of topics in the area of fertility, pregnancy and parenting. Although, we only put our heads together metaphorically speaking due to the fact that we don’t all work from the office and also due to the fact that literally putting your heads together can spread nits. Not that any of us have nits. Just saying. * our editor once won a high-kicking contest in a club Tae Kwon Do comp. If you’d like to read more about the Bub Hub check out the Bub Hub About Us page.
