  • If a newborn has a cold or flu then please make sure you keep a very close eye on them


  • It’s safe to use from newborn age indeed


  • I was told from early on..


  • From newborn should be ok


  • I am pretty sure any age. However, I would probably leave the door open if for a young bub


  • If you and your child can cope with it, then use it. Everyone is different and the noise can sometimes be off-putting, but there isn’t an age limit I’m aware of.


  • I’m not sure if there is an age warning for use, but when I had my daughter, someone made as both unwell and I used one from when she was 5 days old.
    (Yes a worker passed it on)


  • I am not sure about newborns.I started it when my kids more than 1 year.May be ask from your GP.


  • The use of a vaporiser isn’t bound to a certain age indeed.


  • Any age…..
    Just have to turn it off when your child / children turn the shade of blue you like !
