Bath time just got easier, safer, and more enjoyable. The Chelino Olivia Baby Bath Station is the perfect rental option for new parents looking for a convenient, hygienic, and space-saving solution to care for their baby. Designed with thoughtful features and safety in mind, this baby bath station combines a molded bath tub, waterproof changing pad, integrated drainage system, and built-in storage — all in a sleek, portable unit.
Why Renting a Baby Bath Station is Safer, Smarter, and More Practical
When it comes to your baby’s safety, less is more — and timing is everything.
Many parents assume that buying a baby bath unit is essential. However, baby bath stations like the Chelino Olivia are only used for a limited time — typically the first few months, before your baby starts sitting upright independently.
Here’s why renting instead of buying is not only cost-effective but the safer option too:
1. Limited Usage Period
This unit is designed for newborns up to when your baby starts sitting upright without support (often around 5–7 months). After this, the elevated design can pose a tipping or falling risk if the child attempts to sit up, roll, or climb.
-
As babies grow stronger and more mobile, they outgrow the station quickly.
-
Once they can sit unsupported or pull themselves up, this type of elevated bath should no longer be used.
By renting, you’re only paying for it during its safe usage window — and not left storing or selling it after.
2. Safety-Centered Design — But Only for the Early Stage
The Chelino Olivia Bath Station features a secure harness, anti-slip molded tub, and elevated design to prevent adult back strain. But these features are most effective while your baby is still small and not yet mobile.
Renting ensures:
-
You use the right equipment at the right developmental stage.
-
You’re not tempted to continue using it past the safe window, just to justify a purchase.
3. Saves Space and Reduces Clutter
Once your baby has outgrown the unit, it becomes one more item taking up valuable space in your home. Renting allows you to return it and free up space immediately.
4. Hygienic and Hassle-Free
Each rental unit is:
-
Professionally cleaned and sanitized before and after use
-
Quality-checked to ensure safety and function
-
Maintained to high standards for hygiene and peace of mind
You enjoy all the benefits of a high-end baby bath station without the cost, maintenance, or storage stress.
5. Ideal for First-Time Parents Who Need Support
Renting the Chelino Olivia Baby Bath Station is especially ideal if:
-
You’re unsure what baby gear is essential
-
You want to try it before committing to a purchase
-
You’re traveling or setting up a temporary nursery
-
You prefer safe, practical gear that adapts with your baby's growth
Remember: Safety First
Never leave a baby unattended in any bath setup — not even for a second.
As soon as your baby starts sitting upright or becoming mobile, transition to a safer, age-appropriate bathing method, such as a non-slip bath seat in a standard tub, always under full supervision.
Why Choose the Chelino Olivia Baby Bath Station?
From the first splash to those adorable post-bath giggles, the Chelino Olivia makes baby bath time a smooth and stress-free experience. The unit is raised to waist level to prevent strain on your back, making it especially helpful for postpartum recovery. Once your baby’s umbilical cord has naturally fallen off, it’s time to start gentle immersion bathing — and this bath station provides the perfect setting for it.
Key Features:
-
Molded Plastic Baby Bath Tub
Ergonomically shaped and easy to clean, this built-in tub is perfect for safely bathing your baby from head to toe. -
Drainage Pipe & Stopper
No need to lift or tip the bath to empty it. The built-in drainage pipe allows for quick, spill-free draining. -
Rubber Wheels with Safety Locks
Smooth-rolling wheels let you move the station around easily — and lock it securely into place when in use. -
Waterproof Changing Pad
The padded changing mattress is water-resistant and features a safety harness for added security. It’s ideal for quick nappy changes immediately after bath time. -
Storage Tray & Side Compartments
Keep essentials like baby wash, nappies, towels, and lotion within arm’s reach — no running back and forth during bath time.
How to Safely Bathe Your Newborn in a Baby Bath
After your baby’s umbilical cord falls off (typically within the first 1–2 weeks), you can begin using a shallow baby bath. Follow these simple steps:
-
Fill the tub with 5–7 cm (2–3 inches) of warm water. Always check the temperature — it should be around 37–38°C (98.6°F).
-
Use one hand to support your baby’s head and neck while gently lowering them feet-first into the tub.
-
Keep the head and face above water at all times, and pour warm water over your baby regularly to keep them warm.
-
Gently clean their scalp, face, and body using a soft cloth and warm water. Shampooing once or twice a week is enough.
-
Lift your baby out carefully and wrap them in a warm, soft towel. Be sure to dry between skin folds.
Important: Never leave your baby unattended in a baby bath — even for a second.
Water Temperature Tips for Baby Baths
-
The water should feel warm, not hot. Ideal temperature: 37–38°C (around 98.6°F).
-
Use a baby bath thermometer or test the water with your wrist or elbow.
-
Always swirl the water and check different areas to avoid hot spots.
-
To prevent burns, turn on cold water first and then hot when filling the bath.
-
If possible, adjust your home’s water heater to a maximum of 48.8°C (120°F) to avoid accidental scalding.
How Often Should You Bathe a Baby?
Babies don’t need daily baths. In the first year, 2–3 baths per week are usually sufficient — especially if you are thoroughly cleaning the diaper area during each change. Too many baths can dry out your baby's skin, especially if soap is used frequently. Bathing every day or every second day is fine if your baby enjoys it and their skin isn’t drying out.
