I have been using the baby dove shampoo for about 5 months now. I use it Alternatively with the head to toe wash. The shampoo is very gentle and you can see your kid smile as you massage the scalp with the shampoo. It does smell great and my son likes it. The shampoo doesn't have too many chemicals and hence why I like this product. Highly recommended if you kid has a dry scalp.

Loved this product. I'm already a fan of dove soap, have been using it for years. I'm liking that this is designed especially for babies skin. Leaves hair so soft and it doesn't leave a strong smell that maybe too harsh for baby. I Will definitely keep buying this product.

I have now used the shampoo after my son's swimming lessons. This is so good on his hair. He has fine hair and I'm always looking for products that don't harm his hair. This shampoo is very gentle and mild and smells great. The quality and quantity are both fine as the usage is only one drop for my little one's head size. Love it. Highly recommended. Buy on specials to grab a great quality product.

After a successful try of the baby dove lotion , head to toe and wipes, I'm trying the baby dove shampoo now. I've used it twice now for my son. Very gentle smell and he didn't cry because of the shampoo. No tears literally. Very mild to use and not irritating to the skin. His hair had a lot of sand from the daycare, and after the wash, his hair were silky smooth and very clean. Like the product. Will use again after he swimming class to see the difference.

Splish splash we have been taking a lot of baths during the time we have been trying out baby dove shampoo! It has been well over a week that we have been using this amazing product.
What else can we say other then we have fallen in love with Dove baby shampoo!
It smells so amazing and that is just the beginning. My son has never had such beautiful soft, shiny and lovely smelling hair as what he is having since using baby dove shampoo.
No dry scalp and no tears from this product. My son was never a lover of having his hair washed, but now he does. I love how sudsy it is with only using the smallest amout of shampoo. The bottle may be smaller then other products out there but a little goes a long way with this product.
It has left my son's scalp and hair so moisturised and soft. His hair is just looking and feeling so amazing.
We will be 100% buying this again.
For all the lovely mama's and dad's out there wanting to try baby dove shampoo, it is well worth the money. Enjoy trying and testing on your lovely Bubs.

The baby dove rich moisture shampoo left my bubs hair soft and shiny. It didn't hurt his eyes with soap suds and left the scalp and surrounding skin smooth. Only needed a small amount to get a lovely amount of suds. It smelt lovely but not feminine so great for babies of both genders.

We've always been fans of Dove products. It was so exiting to see a dedicated baby range. The shampoo is so smooth. It lathers up nicely with a small amount of water - because, well, small heads. It also rinses out nicely. I love the shape of the bottle - light and easy to hold with wet hands. Might be easier to use as a pump bottle though - to make it one handed.

With a newborn in the house this is a perfect opportunity to review the Dove Newborn Moisture Shampoo. I have found this shampoo to be gentle on my babies scalp. We have had no dry skin from using this shampoo which I had found we got with other brands. It is super gentle on her hair and no dry skin. I definitely recommend this product!

High quality product, but with high quality price tag
My first impression purchasing Baby Dive Shampoo in the stores was that it was more than double the price of other top brand baby washes. Meaning that it would have to distinctly outperform other brands for me to purchase again. Once home and using the product i noted it had a beautiful scent that lingered on my babys head and I could feel how creamy and moisture rich it was as I applied the product. I was hoping the product might help eliminate some of my babys cradle cap as the current shampoo brand i ise does, however, there was no noticable difference. My one complaint about the product was that I found the cap difficult to open without hurting my nail and I couldnt get my finger around to do it instead. Overall, it is a lovely product that is more moisture rich than other brands, however, over priced for its effect.

‘Trust Your Intuition’: How To Advocate For Your Child In Hospital
Mother’s instinct is a funny thing. At home, we trust it without question. But put us in a hospital setting with an unwell child, surrounded by doctors, nurses and monitors, and suddenly we start doubting ourselves.
What if I’m overreacting? What if I’ve got it wrong?
So we stay quiet, even when we know something just isn’t right with our child. I’ve been there myself – when my usually ‘tough’ son was doubled over with stomach pain. I was told in the emergency department that it probably wasn’t his appendix. But I knew he wouldn’t have begged me to take him to hospital unless it was serious. Because I know him better than anyone. Turns out, it was appendicitis.
It’s a really common place for parents to land. You’re grateful for the care your child is getting, but at the same time, you feel this huge responsibility to speak up if something doesn’t feel right.
Here’s the thing though: that instinct you’re feeling? It matters more than you might think.
Why your gut feeling matters more than you realise
According to Paediatric Nurse Unit Manager, Canterbury Hospital, Leticia Jackson, parents bring something to the hospital that no test or machine ever could.
“Parents often say they ‘just know’ when something isn’t quite right with their child, and in a hospital, that gut feeling is incredibly valuable,” she explains.
Leticia Jackson, Paediatric Nurse Unit Manager, Canterbury Hospital
While medical teams rely on observations, tests and equipment, parents know the little details. The way your child usually smiles. How they react when they’re tired. What’s normal for them.
So when something feels “off”, even if everything looks okay on paper, it can actually be an early warning sign.
“When parents trust those instincts and speak up, this creates a powerful partnership that can sometimes catch a problem before it becomes an emergency,” Leticia says.
Worried about speaking up? You’re not alone
A lot of parents hesitate about advocating for their child.
You don’t want to come across as difficult. You don’t want to question the people caring for your child. And sometimes, you just don’t feel confident enough to push the issue.
Leticia gets it.
“It is completely understandable for parents to feel hesitant,” she says. “No one wants to be seen as difficult or to second-guess the hardworking people caring for their child.”
But here’s a helpful way to look at it: you’re not challenging the medical team, you’re helping them.
Parents are the constant. Staff change shifts, care for multiple patients, and rely on snapshots of information. You’re there the whole time, noticing the subtle changes.
“Our medical team doesn’t view a concerned parent as overreactive, but as a partner,” Leticia explains. “Your voice matters.”
Remember, we know our children better than anyone.
What to do if you’re worried: the Raise It process
If you’re in a NSW public hospital or health service and you’re worried about you or your child’s condition getting worse, there is a clear process you can follow called Raise It.
Raise It is designed to help patients, carers and family members get help fast if they’re worried about a change in their loved one’s condition.
Here’s how it works:
Talk: Start by speaking to a nurse, midwife, doctor or health worker about your concerns.
Ask: Still worried? Ask to speak to the nurse or midwife in charge and request a Clinical Review.
Call: If you’re still concerned, you can escalate further using the Raise It process to get urgent attention from a senior health worker.
You don’t need medical knowledge. You don’t need to be certain. If you feel something isn’t right, or your child is getting worse, Raise It. You just need to speak up.
What should you actually look out for?
Sometimes it’s not one big, obvious sign. It can be small, subtle changes that just don’t sit right.
Things like:
Changes in breathing (fast, laboured or noisy)
Skin looking pale, mottled, or developing unusual rashes
Your child being unusually drowsy, floppy, or hard to wake
Confusion or behaviour that’s out of character
Pain that isn’t improving with treatment
Or simply that feeling that your child is getting worse
And sometimes, it’s just that gut feeling you can’t explain.
That’s enough.
“You are helping us, not bothering us”
If there’s one message Leticia wants parents to take away, it’s that you aren’t bothering the medical team, you’re helping them.
“In my years as a Nurse Unit Manager, I can say with absolute certainty that many critical changes in a child’s condition have been identified first by a parent. While our clinical staff are highly skilled at performing regular observations and interpreting data, parents are the only constant presence who truly know their child’s baseline behaviour, personality, and what is normal for them.
“I have seen numerous instances where a parent’s insistence that their child is “just not themselves” – despite vital signs appearing relatively stable – has prompted a deeper clinical review that uncovered everything from early signs of sepsis to a life-threatening respiratory crisis.”
The Raise It process exists because healthcare teams know how important parents are in keeping children safe.
“Speaking up doesn’t mean you don’t trust the team,” she says. “It means you’re partnering with us to make sure nothing gets missed.”
And if you’re still worried about being judged?
“Whether your concern turns out to be something or nothing, your instinct to raise it is always valid.”
Years ago, I spoke up for my 14-year-old daughter, but my concerns weren’t fully listened to. I’ve always wished I had pushed harder. She was sent home without much testing, and two days later, she passed away.
So, if you ever have concerns—no matter how minor—please speak up and keep advocating. Trust your instincts; they are there for a reason.
This is so important for parents to know how to raise it further if they don’t think their child is receiving the medical support they need! I know this article refers to the NSW system but other systems have similar procedures just with different names. I know in QLD it’s called Ryan’s Rule.
It’s so important to follow your gut instincts and express your concerns indeed. I have never hesitated to advocate for my children in various situations and I don’t care what other people think about it. Not all doctors and medical staff appreciate it when you question them, I’ve experienced that it may result in angry indignant responses.
How true this is! While nurses and doctors are the medical professionals doing their job on the daily, we know our children better than anyone and what is ‘normal’ for them. I would always speak up if I had noticed any changes in my child’s health and encourage other parents to do so too. No question is silly!
This really is such an important issue and a good topic to discuss with people, I am often surprised that people are worried about being judged. This is not something I care about; the priority is for the care and health of everyone is my family. Parents know their children and need to work with health professionals for the best outcomes for their children.
This is such an important issue to raise, and no one should ever feel ashamed, nervous or that they are being OTT for advocating for their kids, themselves or loves ones in hospital. In QLD we have Ryan’s Rule. A three step process where your concern will be escalated if they believe the patients condition isn’t improving or is worsening.
I have never been afraid to advocate for my children and partner and extended family and also friends. It is so important to listen and to trust intuition. When people have not listened, I have persevered and kept on with insisting on care and making sure they truly listened and took action.
