• The first and foremost thing that you need to consider is the safety of your child. Children are a lot messy and end up doing new kinds of mischief. So considering their safety is important. Your baby is too small to be able to take a bath on its own so you have to consider all the parameters safe before letting your baby into the bath tub. Buy those baths that come with a sling, a crotch post and side supports that will keep the baby from sliding into the soapy water.
• If you are looking for stand alone bathtubs then do not forget to consider some of these aspects before finalising one for your bathroom. The material has to be non toxic so that it does not harm the baby in any manner. You always want the best for your child and so check the material as the baby’s skin is too delicate and cannot withstand any sort of accidents or mishaps.

• Comfort should also be given a priority. Like how you have given priority to the baby’s safety same way their comfort is important. If they do not feel comfortable then they will not be able to enjoy their bath and act too cranky. The bath tub should have a padded backrest so that the baby feels utmost comfort.
• The bath tub must be easy to fill and evacuate. It must be easy to drain and store. Though some will have a drain plug this will allow you to fill up the soapy water that will help you scrub your baby. You may consider a bath tub that has ease of storage.

• Since your baby will not be able to tell you whether the water is the right temperature for them, so it is better to buy a bath tub that comes with temperature indicators.
