Nappies… check. Wipes… check. Rash cream… check… bottle… check. Pacifier… check. And the list goes on for all the essential items needed for packing your daily nappy bag. You’re pretty much prepared with everything you know your baby will need without a doubt. But do you have the most essential item needed for those “just-in-case” emergency situations, like if a bottle needs warming and hot water accidentally spills on your baby.
A burn takes a second to occur and a lifetime to heal if treated incorrectly. Burn injuries are on the increase where 50% of burns occur in the domestic environment, and burns are the most common external cause of death in children younger than 4 years old (the common cause: hot water / scalds and electrical burns).
When you are out and about with your baby, have peace of mind with Burnshield in your bag.
