Product Information

They rely on a number of sources, including our independent reviews, testing undertaken during the MadeForMums Awards, and feedback from our home testing panel and Top Testers Club. It's important to know that a baby bath seat or support is not a safety product, you mustn't leave your child unattended whilst they're in the bath and should always use bath seats with care and caution. The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) stresses how bath seats should only be used if the child is within arms reach at all times. Kirstie, another MFM parent tester who is mum to 2 girls, agreed with Kelly that it gave her children the feeling of independence. Fellow MFM home tester Kirstie, mum of 2 girls also uses the Shnuggle bath and said, "it's padded on the back and has a wedge at the bottom so even little babies are wedged in and you only need one hand to hold them".

She can sit up but is still a bit wobbly so this is perfect for her; it provides good support but allows her to play with toys in the bath around her. However, "a second setting where you could put your baby into more of a sitting position would be a great added feature," mentioned Hayley. To collate this list of best baby bath seats and supports, we spoke to our hand-picked panel of Made For Mums home testers to find out which bath seats/supports they use and why they love them.I've recommended it to all mum friends as it doesn't use up too much water in the bath and can be hung on the door or wall so doesn't take up too much space," she continued.

It meant the girls could play together in the bath and gave her more confidence in the water," said Kirstie. MFM parent tester Nildeniz, mum of 1, loved that it has "a non-slippery surface which is soft, so felt safe while using it in the shower/bath. This ensures that they can be kept warm on leaving the bath, and a parent does not have to leave them to obtain such". Yes, this is actually a freestanding baby bath, but it was impossible not to include this in the list as a large majority of our MFM parent testers recommend and use this baby bath with its built-in bath seat. There are products which fold away for storage and travel and others which feature attached toys to help add a little extra joy to bath time.Susan Wallace is owner of Settled Petals and is Cheeky Rascal's expert on hand to support parents with guidelines and safety advice. I'm never worried that her face will go under the water which is always a worry in a stand alone bath. We’d recommend only using this bath on the floor or in your bathtub, like our testers, but you can purchase a stand for it. There’s also a ball in the centre of the bar for them to play with so you can keep them occupied while you get them clean and washed. But as individual children meet this milestone at different ages, it is better to wait until they are able to sit confidently before introducing a bath seat, as opposed to focussing on a set age," advises Susan.

The heat sensor came in very handy and let us know when the bath was the best temperature for our baby. The bath support is made from a TPE material which warms very quickly to your baby's body temperature and is gentle on their skin. A wriggly newborn, bubbles and soap can spell chaos, especially if you’re bathing more than one child at a time. Non-slip surfaces – Most bath seats/supports have non-slip surfaces but it's a good idea to double check before choosing which bath seat you're going to purchase so your baby is not slipping and sliding all over the seat.It has strong suction pads and a non-slip seat surface, aiming to keep your baby secure on the seat. With its compact design, this baby bath support is suitable for both a regular sized bath or a traditional baby bath. The suction pads are super strong and have a little tab on each pad for easy release and they are far enough away from your baby's arms so there's no risk of them playing with them.
