Hugs are powerful — but so is protecting our little ones.
Adults are exposed to germs every day, even when we don’t feel sick. Infants’ immune systems are still developing, which makes them more vulnerable.
Washing your hands regularly and turning your head away from your child's face during a hug can be a huge step in avoiding the spread of any germs you may have.
This National Hugging Day, let’s show love by being mindful, respectful, and considerate around babies and young children. 💛
