3. Babyluxe: Safe, organic and stylish baby products

Looking for some sweet stylish baby gear, toys or bath products? You are going to want to know about Babyluxe – it’s the place to get high quality, organic, safe products for you and your bub. We have some favourites to shout out – how fun does the KIDKII ball pit look? Designed and developed in Denmark, this organic ball pit is non-toxic (BPA- and phthalate-free) and highly bio-degradable. It uses a plant-based foam that is primarily made from corn that is STC food level certified and safe even if children put it in their mouth (and of course they will!). We also love the look of the organic, non-toxic Gentle Me Mini Bath Bombs –  handmade in Singapore using all-natural ingredients. These gorgeous bath bombs are safe and gentle on your baby’s skin (and if you want to steal some for your own bath mama, we won’t blame you!). Just drop one in a mini tub for kids, or use a couple if you are making a bath for yourself. Last shout out goes to their CONTI+ oXan clean Hand and Surface sanitiser produced and tested in Germany. It’s great for your home when your baby mouths everything as it’s non-toxic, alcohol-free and provides a safe solution to eliminate germs.

Grab one of the FREE Babyluxe mini trial boxes containing the Gentle Me mini bath bomb & Conti+ oXan clean sanitizer, while they are still available! To qualify you’ll need to sign up at www.babyluxe.sg, and follow them @babyluxesg.sg on Facebook or Instagram

You can even receive cash payouts when your child is hospitalised or on prolonged medical leave due to illnesses or injuries to cover the costs of your child missing tuition or enrichment classes. Read up on the full benefits of the TRIBE by Income Child Pack here!
