If you’re like most new parents, you’ve probably heard or seen articles touting the magic properties of Ayurveda for babies. You might’ve heard of babies that sleep for 6-8 hours at a time, colicky babies that were no longer fussy, digestive and skin issues that miraculously disappeared, and the list goes on. Along with that increasing emphasis on pure, natural and organic products, new parents often find themselves in a dilemma with what brands or products to trust. Trusting your babies with safe and reliable products is like finding a buddy that’ll stay with the little ones until they grow out of it. And if the products are plant-based, organic and ayurvedic, you’ve got a keeper.
A daily ritual of every new mom consists of oil massage and bathing- oil massage being the precursor to a better bathing experience. Massage oils enriched with herbs provide strength to their muscles and are a great way to relax your babies and give them a sound sleep. Best time for sleep-deprived mothers to score sleep for themselves, too, right?
Ayurveda for babies and juniors is beneficial, with the bonus that starting your kids with an Ayurvedic lifestyle can build healthy habits that’ll stay with them for a lifetime. Babies have delicate skin and are more vulnerable to allergies, infections, and rashes. Therefore, it is important to keep your baby’s skin well-moisturised and hydrated at all times.

Caring for your baby’s skin requires time, love and attention. Here are some quick and simple tips to keep your baby’s skin healthy:
- Massage your baby with ayurvedic oil: There are several benefits of baby massages. The baby feels nurtured and loved, but regular massages also keep the baby’s skin hydrated and moisturised at all times. Massage oils powered with herbs like Ashwagandha and Jesthamadha are the best and most effective to prevent dry skin. Use an ayurvedic baby oil enriched with herbs and free of chemicals. For massage, pick a time when your baby is awake and feeling happy.
