BabyBjorn Sun Cover for BabyThe American Academy of Pediatric and the American Academy of Pediatric Dermatology recommends keeping infants out of the sun as much as possible.
Most of the sunscreens found commonly in stores contain chemicals which are absorbed by baby’s skin. Therefore it’s important to use a sunscreen that does not have chemicals on babies. Safe sunscreens that do not contain these chemicals and the ones are recommended for babies under and older than six-months are Blue Lizard Sunscreen,
California Baby Sunscreen Lotion,
and Neutrogena Baby Sunblock Stick.
Also diaper creams with zinc oxide or zinc oxide itself can be used as a sunscreen. Babies can have allergic reactions to sunscreens so you need to use very sparingly on babies under six-months and watch for allergic skin reactions such as redness or a rash after placing sunscreen. When outside you should keep baby in the shade as much as possible. Keep the baby under a tree where there is shade or under an umbrella. Have the baby wear a wide brimmed hat, which also covers and protects the back of the neck, baby sunglasses, and clothing with UV protection too.
