Health Tips For Babies & Children In Hot Weather

During hot weather Babies and children need to be watched carefully, as they are at a higher risk of becoming unwell.

Hot weather can affect your child quickly, as their bodies cannot adjust to changes in temperature .

Children also sweat less, therefore this reduces their ability to cool down. If their body temperature gets too hot they can quickly develop a heat-related illness.


Tips

  • Never leave children in the car, not even for a moment

  • Feed your baby more frequently in hot weather

  • The best drink on a hot day is water for children

  • Give children frequent extra drinks

  • Dress them in light clothing

  • Protect them from the sun using hats and sunscreen
