Baby thermometers


Find the best baby thermometer to measure your child's temperature.

When childhood illness turns up the heat in your home, it's essential that you have the necessary tools at hand to deal with the situation. The forehead-kiss method of assessing a fever is lovely, but an accurate, reliable thermometer is a must. We help you find the best thermometer to accurately gauge your baby's temperature, and explain how best to use it. Just make sure you keep it away from light bulbs on exam days when your little one starts school!
