Because a baby’s skin is so delicate it is a good idea to dilute all essential oils before applying. There are some exceptions and plenty of moms who have used some oils “neat” (undiluted) without any problem, but since diluted an oil does NOT dilute the effectiveness, I always prefer to dilute my oils.
A good rule of thumb is to dilute one drop of essential oil with 1 tablespoon of a carrier oil such as coconut or olive.
Avoid diffusing strong oils (like cinnamon, peppermint, or oregano) in the baby’s room. It’s also recommended to cover your baby’s socks after applying essential oils and to avoid putting oils on the baby’s hands so that the oils don’t end up in her mouth.
I would only recommend Young Living essential oils. Click here to know why. I also highly recommend getting the premium starter kit as almost all the oils you need are already there, plus the home diffuser, which I guarantee you, you will get to use EVERY SINGLE DAY if you are like me. :) Learn more on how to get your hands on this kit.
