Essential oils are a wonderful tool for a health plan, even with children.
However, how do you know you are using aromatherapy safely?
If you are like me, you want to use products that will be safe for your family. You wish to be confident in choosing a specific essential oil for a basic first aid concern.
Yet, you’re a busy mom - managing home, schedules, maybe outside work too. It can be overwhelming to discover the right information to use aromatherapy safely.
Let’s face it - the internet will take you down a rabbit hole quickly leaving you more confused and frustrated!
Increasing Concerns on Chemicals in Popular Products for Children
Have you ever read the ingredients in products used on your children?
Several ingredients have officially been classified as “hazardous.” Many baby lotions, eye drops, cleaning solutions, and more have chemicals as part of their formula. Less than a quarter of the chemicals used in toiletries and cleaning products have been subjected to a full safety investigation (safekids.co.uk).
It’s a known fact, chemicals that have been banned in other areas of the world such as Europe are still commonly used in thousands of household products in the United States.
Many commercial products contain synthetic ingredients that may be harmful, especially to small children.
When I discovered this information, I became more determined to find healthier products for my family. I began to research and explore how to use aromatherapy for children, how to dilute for safety, and how to obtain the best essential oil for the concerns of my child/grandchild.
What did I find out!?
The good news is —These chemically-based products can be replaced with natural alternatives! Yahoo!

Meet Your Mentor
Hi, my name is Deb.
I’m a mom and grandma with a passion for finding natural health remedies for everyday wellness and basic first aid.
I’m a Clinical Nurse Specialist and Certified Clinical Aromatherapist with over 25 years in holistic nursing. I really love nursing. However, there was a point where I found myself struggling. I was going back to school, raising a family, and trying to integrate kids' soccer games, swim meets, and trying to stay connected with family and friends. I managed but found little time to feed my soul and felt something was missing in healthy practice with my family.
I began to explore supportive therapies such as aromatherapy and had fun integrating them into my life and with my family. I am continually amazed at how plants and essential oils bring balance and healing for myself and my family.
