Tips & Precautions
- Being more sensitive to the cold, protect your baby with warm and suitable clothes without forgetting the extremities of the body (heads, hands and feet)
- Avoid leaving your baby with damp or wet clothes
- If you gain altitude, make stages to acclimatize your baby's ears (count a break every 300m of altitude difference)
- The pure air of our mountains is often drier than in the plains, so remember to humidify the room where your child sleeps with a damp cloth
- On the feeding side, between the cold and the dryness of the air, your baby will need to drink and eat more than usual.
- Avoid exposing baby directly to the sun: use a high factor sunscreen with application every 2 hours, glasses and cap
Getting around Megève with a baby
Have you decided to take a short winter stroll with your baby? Choose a stroller with a blanket and a hood to protect from the wind. A front or back baby carrier can cause compression on your little one's arms and legs, which, over time, can become considerably colder due to slowed blood circulation due to the sitting position. However, in summer, when you no longer need to control your little one's temperature, a baby carrier is ideal for venturing out to explore the Mègevans mountains.
