Tips For Purchasing A Safe Baby Tub

Choosing baby products that are safe is a hard task because most parents don't know what to look for.

Use these guidelines, provided by the Nemours Foundation, to help select the safest tub for your baby:

Look for tubs with a backing on the bottom, so it won't slip or move.
Choose a tub that is made with thick, sturdy plastic. Make sure it can easily support the weight of your baby and the bathing water.
Don't use any flotation device, bath ring or suction seat that doesn't have a safety belt. These devices can turn over, posing a drowning hazard.
Don't use a foam cushion in the bath, as your baby may tear it and could swallow small pieces.
Choose a tub with smooth edges.
