Baby Skin Basics: Do's and Don't's

"Often, we bath our children too often..."

What are the hidden dangers for my baby's skin? Are there common warning signs for skin problems among kids?

This week we discuss the red flags and warning signs for common skin problems.

Sometimes, over the counter treatment is sufficient, but occasionally we need a professional's help. How do we know when a minor skin problem could turn into a serious health concern?

Dr Nivana Ramlachan (@drnivana) is our special guest in studio this week. She is one of South Africa's top dermatologists, award winning and internationally acclaimed. With her passion for good skin, and helping children, she joins our Podcast with valuable advice.
