INFORMATION ON USE OF ESSENTIAL
OILS FOR Baby ROOM NURSERY
Please be sure to follow our recommendations on how to use essential oils for baby room
nursery with your humidier. Failure to do so may result in malfunction or damage to the
humidier or even harm to the babies.
Younger children or babies have super sensitive skin. The thin, sensitive skin is much more
permeable to essential oils than the skin of an older child or adult. Too high a dilution could
cause skin irritation and other problems later down the road.
Therefore, before applying essential oils to babies, it’s important to understand proper dilution
ratios and application methods.
Even when essential oils are diluted with a carrier oil, they may cause skin irritation and sun
sensitivity, especially in children. It’s recommended that a patch test (also sometimes called a
“spot test”) be performed on the skin, with each new oil introduced.
Patch Test
A simple patch test can give you an understanding of how your baby will react to the oil.
1. Apply a very small amount of diluted essential oil on your baby’s skin on the leg or on the
arm.
2. Wait for about 24 hours and check for any signs of irritation, redness or inammation of the
skin.
3. If you notice a reaction, stop using that particular oil. If your baby has no reactions, then
you can proceed using that oil.

Dilution Recommendations for Babies/Children
It is not recommended to use any essential oils on babies under 3 months.
Safety Tips for Babies /Children
Essential oils need to be used with proper care and precautions to avoid any risks. We
recommend to limit diffusion to 30-60 minutes, a few times a day as needed.
• Due to the strong concentration, there are many essential oils that may not be best for your
child at a specic age. It is best to ensure that you have a discussion with your baby’s
doctor about which are the best kid-friendly essential oils that are ideal for your little one.
Also get the directions of usage as not all oils can be used on all routes.
• Must keep essential oils out of the reach of your child to prevent accidental ingestion.
• Ensure that you buy essential oils of good quality from a trusted brand.
• Do not expose children to direct sunlight after using essential oils like citrus oils, as it can
cause severe irritation, rash or pigmentation on the skin.
• Make sure the room is well-ventilated so the oils are not too potent in the room. If you nd
that oil is potent, then you will need to lower the quantity being used.
