Cetaphil Baby recently hosted an inspiring event at Señorita Sunae, bringing together a community of mothers to share their experiences, learn from each other, and celebrate the beautiful journey of motherhood.
The event focused on supporting first-time moms and featured discussions, product presentations, expert insights, and engaging activities.
Cetaphil Baby Country Brand Manager Lyka Lopez commenced the event by emphasizing the importance of gentle and hypoallergenic skincare for babies. She shared, "To avoid potential skin issues for babies, Cetaphil Baby products are formulated with gentle and hypoallergenic ingredients and are free from harsh chemicals and parabens so parents are assured that they are giving the healthy start their baby’s skin deserves. Cetaphil Baby products cover the three important steps for baby’s skin routine – Cleanse, Moisturize, and Protect. Reassurance that your baby is protected in all the needed newborn essentials."
Brand ambassador Andi Manzano and Board-Certified Dermatologist and Dermatopathologist, Dr. Mara Huber, shared their personal insights on motherhood and self-care. They discussed the four pillars of raising a healthy baby: healthy food, healthy play, healthy sleep, and healthy skin.
Healthy Food is about providing babies the healthy start they deserve with the food they eat. Moms must consider ingredients when buying baby products. Healthy Sleep is about making sure your baby has healthy sleep habits so they become a happy baby. Cetaphil Baby products are formulated to soothe and nourish your little one's delicate skin and help them relax for hours of uninterrupted sleep. Healthy Play is about creating a safe and healthy environment for playing and is a must for baby's development. A healthy environment, coupled with good hygiene from Cetaphil Baby, helps protect babies from factors that cause irritation or sickness. Finally, Healthy Skin is for moms to use the right product to give their babies' skin the healthy start it deserves. Cetaphil Baby products are formulated to help keep babies' sensitive skin healthy, moisturized, and clean.
Dr. Huber, drawing from her expertise, emphasized the importance of healthy skin care for babies, highlighting her experience in addressing various dermatological issues in infants. She mentioned the importance of choosing the appropriate skincare for every stage of a baby’s early life. “When they’re newborns, you have to be exceedingly careful about their skincare routine. Start with simple. As they get older and start to be more exposed to different environments, you have to adjust and make certain changes because it’s not good for their development if you keep them away from the world,” said Dr. Huber.
Andi Manzano, accompanied by daughter Amelia, who engaged in playful activities as the event went on, and her youngest Lucia, who waved back at everyone, reminded all the moms in the audience to give themselves grace and enjoy the journey of motherhood. She also stressed the importance of Mommy Time: “When they’re sleeping, that’s time for me.”
She further shared a funny anecdote regarding Amelia’s new eating tendencies: “She likes watching me bathe her baby sister,” said Andi. “And now she even wants to start bathing herself! I don’t want her to be too independent yet.”
The event featured a series of quick games and interactive sessions led by Mamacademy PH, a community focused on empowering mothers through learning. New moms had the opportunity to learn about bathing and swaddling tips for healthy skin and sleep and participate in short seminars on fostering healthy play and providing nourishing food for their babies. “Make sure your husband also knows how to do these things,” said Li Tayag. “You both need to share the responsibility of raising your baby.”
The Cetaphil Baby Baby Dialogues event concluded with a sense of camaraderie and empowerment among the attendees. Moms are left with a wealth of knowledge, newfound friendships, and the confidence to embark on the wonderful journey of motherhood. The event was a testament to the power of community, education, and the importance of self-care during this special phase of life.
