Taking 1 year old on holiday

[HarrietAT92]

Hey, firstly apologies for any naivety in this post but asking for help.
I’m looking into taking my baby (who will be one) on holiday next year but I’m wondering about milk and water.
I’m looking into the Caribbean so I know tap water isn’t ok, but what do you do about drinking water? Also milk. Do you give them cows milk from there?or do you take long life with you? Or do you use follow on milk? (I’m not planning on using follow on just don’t know what to take on holiday!)
Any advice, tips, anything!! Will help :)
Thank you

After a year I just used cows milk so would just use standard milk. Water I would use bottled water.

Same water you drink - bottled presumably. I would be fine with pasteurised milk from a supermarket or anything a decent resort hotel would provide. Much will depend if you’re self catering in a villa or staying in a 5* resort or something in between! You can’t really transport large quantities of milk with you and I’m not sure your destination would let you bring dairy products into the country anyway, many don’t.

The mineral content of some bottled water is too high for babies to consume in large quantities. Most countries do bottled water that isn't mineral water, and have a baby symbol on. When abroad we also boiled and cooled tap water for baby. For milk we used formula, and now a growing up milk that only needs refrigerating after opening. I would take some long life or growing up milk as a back up, and try fresh cows milk if that's what they are drinking normally by that time.
