- As you're taking up this responsible and enjoyable journey called parenthood, you'll need to keep a few important things in mind from the time you welcome your baby home till
about the time your baby licks up the second birthday cake.
We have compiled a checklist especially to help you on this wonderful journey. - The Baby Care
- Baby Care
- A new-born's skin is ten times thinner than an adult's and is easily prone to rashes and infections, one of the main culprit being wetness.
- Diaper to help baby sleep dry and comfortable through the night
- Diaper rash cream to soothe any rashest
- Diaper changing mat
- Baby wipes
- The Baby's Comfort & Style
- Your baby's clothes are for comfort and for making a cute statement too. Remember that all baby clothes should be of pure cotton and should have safe buttons and strings.

- Exploring the World
- As baby crosses the months and becomes more mobile, a few necessary products will assist you in taking baby out to explore the world around.
