Finding the Perfect Bath Solution for Your Newborn: Bathtubs for Newborns

The right baby bath is an important addition to any newborn essentials list, as it means you'll have the right solution for bathing your baby in your home.

Giving your baby a bath is one of the many daunting things you have to wrap your head around as a new parent. It's so important to understand, that they even show you how to do it properly before you head home from the hospital.

Although babies aren't generally in need of a bath until they're several months old, it's a worthwhile activity to incorporate into your nighttime routine as it's a great way to promote sleep by relaxing your baby with warm water in the evenings.

What should you be looking for in a baby bath or baby bath seat?

When looking for the perfect bathtub for baby, there are a few important factors to take into consideration.

- Longevity:

Consider whether the baby bath or bath seat you're eyeing has the potential to serve your baby beyond the first few months. Assess the size and design of the bath, thinking about how long you intend to use it.

- Consider your space:

Do you already have a bath in your home? If so, you may only require a bath seat to place within the bath, just to cradle your baby as you bathe them. If you're not looking to bend over the bathtub during bath time, it might be worth considering a bathtub on a stand, so that you can wash your baby while standing up.

In a smaller home, collapsible baby bathtubs are a popular choice, as they can be placed on a benchtop during bath time and then packed away when not in use.

Some parents also choose to use a bath seat within a spacious sink, a viable option for a cosy bathing experience.

- Comfort:

Ensure that the chosen baby bath or bath seat provides comfort to your little one. The design should support your baby's well-being during bath time.

- Stability:

Many baby seats are ergonomically designed to cradle your baby in the right position to allow a gentle position slightly immersed in the water so that their ears don't become submerged. This allows you to have your hands free to attend to your baby's needs while bathing. Always verify that your chosen baby bath seat offers the stability required to hold your baby without the risk of breaking, sliding, or tipping over.

Real customer reviews:

“It is exactly what I expected! Easy to clean, easy to use, perfect for our home that only has a shower. I would recommend it to everyone who needs to bathe a baby (who sit up on their own of course.) I found the reviews for this one helpful, so wanted to put it out there that the reviews were correct, good tub!” - SBurch 

“This bathtub has been amazing! We downsized to a 1 bath apartment that had a tub and I thought "Great! I don't need the baby tub anymore!" but my baby (6 mo.) is just too active for the regular adult tub. This tub is great because it gives her some flexibility to move around (she's the size of a 12 mo.) but she's still pretty confined. The best part is that it folds up, so when we're finished, we drain it, fold it and store it next to the tub! This is a HUGE bonus since our apartment is so small.” - NVP

Real review: CM, target.com

"I had a different baby bath that I bought for my first which I never really liked. I still needed to use one hand to hold my baby on it because she would slide around, and bath time was difficult and required at least two adults. I recently had my third and someone told me about this baby bath. After a long time deciding- after all I already have something- I took the plunge and bought it. Best purchase ever!!!! It completely holds the baby, the baby's back and bottom still get cleaned through the little holes, there is no mold issue because you can just hang it in the shower or leave it in the bath and it dries, and it's not big and doesn't take up too much space. Best of all, I give my baby a bath by myself, and it's a relaxing bonding experience. I now tell everyone with babies to buy it."

Real review: Elizabeth Hughes, facebook.com

"As a grandmother with bad knees and back, this was the life saver for me when I had to care for my newest baby granddaughter. With adjustable angles on the seat, height adjustable legs, bub was comfortable laying in it safely and I was able to use both hands to be able to wash her without hurting myself. I think it would make a great gift for any parent and I wish I had known about this earlier. "100% Australian Owned" is a bonus."

9. Kmart Large Flat Fold Bath, $49

Kmart Large Flat Fold Bath 49

This flat fold bath is the perfect size for your baby. No more washing them in the sink, now they've got their very own bath. With non-slip folding legs for safety, the bath folds down flat with a handy hook so you can hang it up easily for storage. Keep your little one safe from scalding with the heat sensor plug that prevents overheating, if the plug turns white that means the temperature is too hot, but if it's blue then the water is just fine for baby.

Real review: Quinn Smith, amazon.com.au

"Easy to use and store. Exactly what we needed. Only negative is that the water cools very quickly. This is probably due to the fabric vs. other tubs that are plastic. Still worth it!"

Real review: Cindy, au.philandteds.com

"I'm loving how still the bath chair sits. The suctions are so powerful that there is no movement when my little one wants to wiggle around. He sits up and plays with the water. I don't worry about him sliding off. He's about 10 months now and it's definitely made bath time easy! But not only is it great for the bath, it's great for showers too. I've had to shower my little one quickly a few times and to just have him sit in this chair was so convenient."
