Key ingredients
Organic Shea Butter is in it to gently soothe dry skin. A trio of Sunflower, Sweet Almond and Hemp Seed oils help to soften the perineum, in preparation for labour. Organic Calendula and Vitamin E also soothe sore and cracked nipples during breastfeeding.

A must have for those prone to Eczema
Mum & Baby Rescue Balm is a multi-purpose must have rich in Omega-3 & 6 fatty acids which are essential for healthy skin! Ideal for use on ultra dry skin, this scent free balm is mild and gentle enough for frequent use and for individuals prone to eczema, psoriasis and other skin irritations.

Whats new with 'Organic Babies'?

'Organic Babies' enjoy strong endorsements from influential organisations (you'll have read about TIPS on other postings) - and this Summer we are really pleased to work alongside the UK's biggest parenting charity, NCT. If you read their regular magazine, please look out for the 'Organic Babies' Chamomile Baby Wash free with a copy coming soon, or browse our ranges in their online shop.


Earlier in the year some products in this range gained official certified status from The Fairtrade Foundation. 96% organic Soothing Baby Salve is rich in Omega-3&6 fatty acids essential for healthy skin. It is great for nappy rash and designed to provide quick relief for baby’s sensitive skin. 98% organic Nappy Cream Baby Balm is suitable for babies with nappy rash, and those particularly prone to eczema. Baby’s discomfort is eased by the healing affects of Zinc Oxide.

Ultimately, this means that parents can protect their baby’s skin at the same time as helping third world communities, and be reassured that those involved in the production of ingredients receive a fair price for their labour. (Fairtrade Shea Butter is packed with natural vitamins, and is a natural anti-inflammatory, and anti-irritant too).

Green People Founder, Charlotte Vøhtz explains,

'We have been developing certified organic baby products for over 13 years, and it has always been our mission to source ingredients that are 100% natural and organic and that are equally beneficial to the local growing communities ... We are delighted to work closely with the Fairtrade Foundation to recognize this commitment, and can offer parents baby care products which are just as good for the skin as they are for the livelihoods of the producers.'

Pressie-wise, we heartily recommend the Mum and Baby Gift Box Green People’s products are available online or call us to discuss using the range in office hours on 01403 740350. You can also find fabulous parenting tips and free advice on our micro site too.

We always like to note feedback about our pioneering all natural brand ‘Organic Babies’. Can we invite all fellow Bloggers, Mumtrepreneurs (is it true that these fabled creatures are at home, in class, at work and quite probably pregnant while also Blogging in just the one lifetime?) and, dear loyal customers to crack on share your product experiences with us? It is always great to hear from you all x

My own tip?
I don't have any kids so didn't initially think about buying into this range, however a tester fell magically into my hands, and before i knew it, i began using Lavender Salve on my rather grown-up knees, heels and elbows to keep the drier areas supple and youthful. The rapid results and deep moisturisation are a complete revelation, and it also give calves a model like sheen for those flipflop outings. Best of all - it lasts for an absolute age.

Best Eco-Friendly Breast Treatment

We are delighted to announce that our Organic Babies Baby Salve has been awarded the TIPS Best Eco-Friendly Breast Treatment Award 2011!

The intensive salve is very helpful for mums who are suffering with soreness through breastfeeding as it is ultra gentle and highly nourishing with Omega-3&6 fatty acids. It is excellent at relieving discomfort generally so is also recommended for dry skin conditions.

Here are some lovely comments from mums who tested the Baby Salve:

"Rubs in so well with no sticky residue and no need to wash off"

"I was dubious but wow it works!"

"When I used the salve on my nipple the redness was gone"

"It smells lovely and promotes relaxation so helped my milk to flow better."

We've had a bit of a mad rush on it recently so are temporarily out of stock of the larger size but please see the 30ml Baby Salve - perfect for trying!
