Bath time is not just about getting clean but a chance to play or unwind before bed. We know that babies and young children can drown in as little as 2 inches of water and in a matter of seconds. This is why it is important we attend regular training to ensure we are all following the basic bath safety guidelines as well as following the simple steps to make sure all children in our care are safe and happy at bath time.
