  • You can also use other herbal teas such as lemon balm, oat straw, and passionflower to help soothe and relax your baby.

  • Make sure to always check with your health care practitioner before giving any herbal remedy to a baby.

  • Avoid using sugar, honey or any other sweeteners when preparing herbal teas for babies.

  • If you are using fresh herbs, remember to double the amount for the same results.

  • For best results, give chamomile tea warm to your baby.

  • The calming effects of chamomile will last a few hours, so you may need to give more than one dose in a day.

  • Avoid giving the tea to your baby if they are allergic to plants of the Asteraceae family such as daisies, chrysanthemums, and ragweed.

  • Make sure that you buy organic, non-irradiated herbs for maximum benefits.

  • Always store dried herbs in airtight containers in a cool, dry place.

  • Do not give your baby herbal remedies without consulting your health care provider first.
