Remedies for the nursery

When I get a call that someone's child is sick, the remedies that I recommend to start with are pretty standard. Most of the glycerin extractions in my line were formulated when my own children were babies themselves and I needed to treat them for coughs, runny noses, colic, or diarrhea.

A few years ago, I created a "cheat cheat" that I give to my midwifery clients when their baby is born, and I'd love to share it with you here! I hope that this remedy chart helps you when you're up at 3 AM with an uncomfortable, fussy baby and you're not sure what to do! 

Of course, I always recommend following your intuition as a mother when it comes to knowing when to take your child to a physician for treatment, but this little chart has helped many of my clients and family members in treating symptoms of illness in their children without the need for antibiotics.
Remember to ALWAYS dilute essential oils before applying them to a baby or toddler! 

Many of the remedies on this chart are the same recommendation for older children or adults as well, we have equivalent capsulated formulas for nearly every glycerin extraction on this list.
