Tummy Tub
Not just a bucket!!
Endorsed by physicians, midwives and nursery nurses.
TummyTub® was designed in the Netherlands by childcarers to ease the transition from the comfort of the mother’s womb.
Babies naturally adopt the foetal position and it is amazing to see how quickly they calm and relax.
Features and Benefits:
- - Bathing in the familiar foetal position – helps babies feel reassured and relaxed
- - Stress free bathing for both baby and parent – excellent for colicky babies
- - Anti-skid base and low centre of gravity for safety and stability
- - Compact size – takes less space and less use of water
- - Especially useful for premature babies
- - Ergonomic hand grips and extremely lightweight
- - Made of environmentally friendly materials
- - Less surface area of water – temperature stays warmer for longer time
- - Has European TÜV safety certificate/assessed by BSI
Why not a normal bucket?
- - Normal buckets don’t have an anti-skid bottom.
- - The bottom is not curved and therefore does not give the baby any support.
- - Babies discover their new world by touching with their hands and tasting with their mouth. The pigments in plastic buckets will most likely contain toxic elements, as normal buckets aren’t meant for bathing babies.
- - The handle of the bucket can easily hurt the fingers of the baby. It also does brings an extra risk, as an older brother or sister could – by holding it – pull the bucket from the table.
- - You can view on your baby from all sides, because of transparent material of original TummyTub®
- - Normal buckets are too low and narrow. The waterlevel is therefore also too low and the children can’t stay warm. Apart from that mother and child are hindered in their movements. However simply using a bigger bucket doesn’t give the child the support and a comfortable sitting position.
- - A normal bucket would never have the TÜV and BSI approval for babybathing.
