Basic needs for baby bathing: a baby bath basin (non-slip bottom, sized for small or standard tub use), a soft bath towel (hooded ones are practical), baby soap or shampoo (fragrance-free, pH balanced), cotton cloth or sponge, a clean diaper for changing, and fresh clothes.

Testing water temperature with the inside of your elbow is the most practical method — it should feel warm, not hot. Sponge baths are recommended until the cord falls off. Just be careful not to get water in the eyes and ears; you don't need cotton swabs for the ears.

After the cord falls off, 2-3 baths a week is enough, you don't need to bathe daily. Thoroughly drying baby's skin after the bath and applying diaper rash cream, especially in the diaper area, provides protection.
