Natural Homeopathic Cough and Cold Remedies for Babies and Toddlers! Is your baby having trouble sleeping because of a runny nose or cough? Want to know what is even safe for a baby with a cough? These safe natural tips and tricks will help you get rid of your child’s cold quickly!
It’s tough when your little ones are sick, especially toddlers and babies! Our hearts break as they hack, cry, can’t breathe from congestion, and run fevers. We look for things that will offer even a little bit of relief as home remedies to get them better fast!
So, I’ll share my favorite natural cough & cold remedies for toddlers and babies… Most adult cold remedies are too strong for babies or toddlers, but these are natural and safe!
If you get do nothing else from this post, give your 1-yr-olds and older This Syrup!
This has been an immune system game-changer for my kids for almost a year!
And, I personally recommend and take These Gummies for Adults.
I cannot claim that it will work this well for everyone, but since taking these things we haven’t had so much as a sniffle in almost a year!

For toddlers over the age of 1, Honey comes highly recommended to help with cough and sore throat. Honey is also antibacterial to help your little one fight the infection.
I like Zarbee’s Naturals Children’s Cough Syrup Mucus for my 2-yr-old, and Zarbee’s Naturals Baby Cough Syrup Mucus for my 9-month-old. The children’s brand contains dark honey for cough and ivy leaf for mucus. The baby version has agave for cough (since you should never give honey to children under one year of age), and ivy leaf for mucus.
For moms looking for a more cost-effective solution, try simply giving your toddler Organic, raw honey and your baby Organic agave.
I mix a little filtered water into both to make them a little less sticky and give to my children in a syringe, just like the one that comes with the Zarbee’s brand. You can find super cute character liquid dose syringes for kids Here. You can give honey/agave every 4 – 5 hours as needed for cough.

Natural/Home Congestion Remedies for Toddlers and Babies:
Babies especially have super small bronchial tubes and bronchioles to breathe through. One tip I got from my pediatrician is to gently tap your little ones back with your first three fingers to loosen congestion in your babies’ airways.
Another great little device I’ve found this past cold season is the NoseFrida Snotsucker Baby Nasal Aspirator. When your little one can’t breathe but obviously can’t blow their nose, a nasal aspirator is a must!
