This is a great opportunity to get out and about in the fresh air!! Don’t forget to :
- wear suitable clothing
- bring drinking water (for yourself and your baby if over 6 months)
- bring nappies/change of clothes for baby
Your baby’s welfare remains your responsibility at all times. Remember to protect your baby from the sun/rain/wind – whatever the weather.
