I’m so honoured to partner with Huggies to help promote Global Hug Your Kid Day. One of the most valuable gifts we have is right here in our arms. Skin-to-skin hugs are the most valuable gifts parents can provide their baby in the hours, days and weeks after birth as it offers many psychological and physiological benefits for both baby and parent. An easy time to get in a skin-to-skin moment is after each diaper change, as baby is already unclothed and feeling comfortable in a clean diaper. On average a child requires up to 5,000 diaper changes in their little lifetime – that’s 5,000 opportunities for hugs!

 Harper loves a fresh diaper. Huggies Little Snugglers diapers have tiny, soft pillows that provide a cushiony layer of protection between Harper’s skin and the mess – ensuring she is extra comfortable at all times. A diaper change is the perfect time for us to have that one on one girl chats, you know? She gets so focal and gives me all her coos and goos. I live for these moments. When she’s down to just a diaper I love to give her a relaxing massage with baby lotion and give her those all important hugs. It’s the perfect time to take 5 minutes and bond. Join me and share some very important love with your little one!
