Baby Care Accessories – Thermometers, Nail Scissors, Brushes and Combs - page 2

Baby care accessories are the small items you need every day: baby thermometers, nail scissors and clippers, nail care sets, baby brushes and combs, cotton pads and a syringe applicator for dosing syrups. This category is part of Baby Equipment and includes products from AGU, Canpol Babies, Chicco and Dr Gym.

If you are looking for thermometers for the whole family (digital, non-contact and ear), see also Thermometers – Digital and Non-Contact. For clearing your baby's nose, see baby nasal aspirators.

Baby thermometer – which one to choose?

Thermometer type Examples in our range Advantages and notes
Non-contact (forehead) thermometer AGU Giraffe non-contact thermometer Measures in seconds without touching, even while your baby sleeps. Good for a quick check; confirm a raised reading with another method.
Infrared ear and forehead thermometer AGU Eaglet infrared thermometer Two measuring modes in one device. Ear readings are more reliable in babies older than 6 months, with the tip placed correctly in the ear canal.
Smart temperature indicator AGU Skinny smart temperature indicator Continuous temperature monitoring during illness, shown on your phone, without repeatedly waking your baby.
Digital thermometer in the Thermometers category Underarm measurement; the method most often recommended at home for the youngest babies.

How to take your baby's temperature

  • For babies under 6 months, paediatricians usually advise using a digital thermometer under the arm – place the tip in the middle of the armpit and hold your baby's arm against the body
  • Hold a non-contact thermometer at the distance stated by the manufacturer, over a dry forehead free of hair and sweat
  • Do not take the temperature right after bathing, feeding or when your baby is overdressed – wait 15 to 20 minutes
  • Different methods give slightly different readings; to follow an illness, always use the same thermometer and method
  • Write down the time and reading – it is useful information for your paediatrician

Nail and hair care

Babies' nails grow quickly and are sharp, so babies can scratch their faces. To trim them, use scissors with rounded tips (e.g. Canpol Babies scissors with cap), a baby nail clipper or a nail care set that also includes a file.

  • Nails are easiest to trim while your baby sleeps or after a bath, when they are softer
  • Gently pull the fingertip away from the nail; trim fingernails slightly rounded and toenails straight across
  • Smooth sharp edges with a nail file
  • For hair, choose a soft brush with natural or soft bristles and a comb with rounded teeth – Canpol Babies Soft and Newborn Baby brush and comb sets are made for the youngest
  • A soft brush also helps with cradle cap, to gently remove flakes after washing the hair

Pharmacist's advice

In a baby younger than 3 months, any temperature of 38 °C or higher is a reason to contact a doctor straight away. In older babies, seek urgent help if your baby is unusually drowsy, refuses feeds, has difficulty breathing, has a rash that does not fade under pressure or has seizures, or if the fever lasts longer than two to three days.

Dose syrups and drops only with the measuring cup, syringe or syrup applicator provided, never with a kitchen spoon – this way the dose is accurate.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best thermometer for a baby?
For the youngest babies, a digital thermometer under the arm is the most reliable. A non-contact thermometer is practical for a quick check, and an ear thermometer for babies older than 6 months. Many parents keep two – one for a quick check and one to confirm.

How do you use a non-contact thermometer on a baby?
Point the thermometer at the middle of the forehead from the distance stated by the manufacturer; the forehead should be dry and free of hair. Confirm a raised reading with a digital thermometer.

When can you start trimming a baby's nails?
Nails can be trimmed in the first weeks, with round-tipped scissors or a baby nail clipper. In the first days many parents only file the nails because they are very thin.

Which brush is best for a baby's hair?
For a newborn, choose a very soft brush and a comb with rounded teeth. A soft brush is gentle on the scalp and helps remove cradle cap gently.
