Baby massage oil

[Bug2025]

Starting a free baby massage class led by Kent Hub. Looking for baby massage oil recommendations please. Their recommendation is to use a pure, non-scented vegetable, nut or fruit oils. The exception to this is coconut oil which should not be used as it is a cooling oil and only oils that warm the skin should be used. Anyone used any good oils, I have no idea which one to get?

I would expect whoever is running the class to provide the appropriate oil. The cynic in me tells me that events like that are all about selling stuff.

We did a baby massage course with my HV and was recommended to just use bog standard vegetable oil from the kitchen. I did buy the tiniest bottle I could find as it was more practical but I topped it up with oil from the kitchen once I finished it
I was told to avoid things like coconut oil and nut oils as you should be careful with what you put on their skin before they have had them directly. I know a child who had an oat allergy as a baby and reacted to any oat based creams
