“During warmer weather, parents may also find it helpful to keep extra fluids, sunscreen, a sun hat, spare comfortable clothing and an umbrella or parasol for temporary shade in their baby bag.
“Apply sunscreen generously before heading outdoors and remember often-missed areas like the ears, neck and tops of feet.
"Sunscreen should be reapplied every two hours, and more frequently after swimming, sweating or towel drying.”
