4 CERTIFIED organic ingredients
EACH WITH a purpose
Jojoba Oil
Jojoba is non-toxic and non-allergenic, making it suitable for newborns up. Extracted from a seed, rather than a nut, jojoba oil closely resembles the skin's natural sebum, providing hydration without compromising the skin barrier. Its non-greasy and lightweight nature allows it to absorb quickly and nourish the skin.
Calendula
Derived from marigold flowers, calendula is renowned for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps protect the skin barrier, all while nourishing the skin.
Chamomile
Chamomile is a calming botanical rich in natural flavonoids, it delivers powerful anti-inflammatory benefits, helping to soothe itching and relieve common skin concerns. Its gentle nature makes it especially well-suited for sensitive or reactive skin.
Marshmallow Root Extract
Marshmallow root, a herb used for centuries, is renowned for healing red skin and relieving skin irritation. Research suggests that its topical application may help manage dry, sensitive skin. With its anti-inflammatory properties, marshmallow root extract soothes and softens the skin, making it an excellent choice for sensitive skin.
The Oil You Can Trust - for Pregnancy, Baby & Beyond
The Oil was mindfully developed by our founder Caitlin - a Midwife, Nurse, and Nutrition Consultant.
After receiving countless questions from parents about which oil she recommended, Caitlin realised there wasn’t a truly clean, inclusive option she could confidently stand behind - one that was free from common irritants, nut oils, and food allergens (which can increase the risk of developing sensitivities through topical exposure).
Recognising the need for something safer, simpler, and more effective, she spent over two years in research and development to create, The Oil - a premium, certified organic blend that’s suitable for sensitive skin, safe for use in pregnancy, and gentle enough for newborns.
Thoughtfully designed to support the whole family - from growing bellies to tiny toes and everything in between.

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 19 reviews.
I bought The Oil and The Wash prior to bubs arrival and I have zero regrets. The oil was a godsend - I purchased to put on his little newborn bum to make sure his first poos didn’t stick, and it didn’t disappoint there. It did a perfect job protecting his skin and we still use it on his bottom 11 weeks on.
We also started using it all over during his first few weeks. He had a dry flakey scalp and lost his hair, so I started to massage or brush The Oil into his scalp after bathing in The Wash, and I think that combo rescued him. His hair is growing so nicely now and not a flake in sight.
Both of them together also helped to calm his hormonal breakout (“milk pimples” - see sad pic) - after every bath his skin looked so much calmer and happier.
The Wash is so gentle and gives a beautiful soap.
Attached is a pic of baby’s perfect skin today at 11 weeks.
I love these products. I’d recommend them a thousand times.
Thank you!
I had heard great things about The Oil so had to try it with my baby. I used it behind his ears where the skin was very dry and under his chin where the skin was getting agitated. I used a minimal amount just before bedtime and the next morning both were completely healed. I will be recommending this to everyone!
We absolutely love the body wash and body oil. I’m a Naturopath and found it difficult to find a body wash and oil that didn’t have any nasties in it at all (without making it myself, which I don’t have time for atm). Also I didn’t want lavender in it for my newborn (later on fine, but for early stages I didn’t want something too strongly scented).
This bath wash feels amazing when using it on bubba & it doesn’t foam up, which is when you know it’s natural!
The oil is perfect and glides on beautifully, and doesn’t have a strong scent.
This will be a staple for us with bub for a very long time.

Thank you, Julia 💜
We’re so glad you’re enjoying The Oil. It was formulated to feel lightweight, nourishing and beautiful to use every day 🥰

Incredibly well used wash and oil for both my baby, and my belly for baby no 2! I simply don't trust anything else. These are made from clean ingredients and they WORK! I can see the results the day of. X
I have been loving my Maternally Happy 'The Oil'! I have used it since I found out I was pregnant as a bit of self-care as well as hydration for my skin. I generally have pretty sensitive skin and haven't reacted to this at all! It goes on super well, doesn't have a strong scent (which was my saving grace in first trimester!) and has my belly feeling nice and soft. I'm actually just off to re-purchase more now as my bottle is nearly empty!
Store owner replied:
This is so lovely to read! thank you for sharing your experience 💜
We’re thrilled The Oil has been a gentle, nourishing addition to your self-care routine, especially with sensitive skin in the mix. It’s carefully formulated without added fragrance, making it a beautiful option during pregnancy when scent sensitivity can be heightened.
So grateful for your support Tess 🥰

So happy to have found a daily moisturiser that 1) isn't greasy, 2) has non-toxic, all-natural ingredients, 3) doesn't give me a rash, and 4) is totally unscented and neutral-smelling, so won't mask my natural scent and confuse my newborn baby <3
I been using coconut oil since birth but it didnt fully nourish the dry patches on my babies skin. I found maternally happy and I love that the ingredients are all natural and allergy free! Since using the oil and bath wash, my baby girls dry patches on skin has cleared up within a few days. So happy! Thanks so much!
I’ve been using Maternally Happy oil religiously throughout my pregnancy and couldn’t recommend it more highly.
It provides instant relief from the tightness of my growing belly, leaving my skin feeling silky smooth and deeply hydrated without any greasy residue.
Finding skincare products with truly clean ingredients can be challenging, but im so glad to have found Maternally Happy oil.
Store owner replied:
There’s nothing quite like a little self-care during pregnancy, Courtney 💜

So happy to have found a product without food proteins to use on baby's skin. The oil is not too oily once dry and my baby's skin and scalp are no longer dry and flakey. The wash is not drying and I appreciate that it is unscented and not soapy.
Store owner replied:
Awww, your little one is absolutely adorable 🥹 We’re so glad the oil and wash are helping soothe your baby's skin without any of the usual irritants. Thanks for trusting us with such a special part of your routine 💜

Best belly oil - trust me, i've tried many - they either smell to strong (pregnancy nausea) or are too greasy! like you just feel so oily - not MH oil. It is beautiful, non greasy and fragrance free and I have no stretch marks. Also beautiful organic ingredients which I can use on my newborn too. Highly recommend
Absolutely love the baby oil and so comforting knowing it contains safe and well thought through ingredients! My newborn started to get cradle cap and we used the oil for only two days and all the flakes have cleared! Incredible! Thanks for creating such a beautiful product!
Love it! So easy to use and so grateful for a product that contains beaut, high quality ingredients without the allergens found in every other product on the market. Will buy again!

We developed this product to be completely free from toxins and food-based ingredients, using only certified organic materials. It's safe for use from newborns onward, including infants, toddlers, children, individuals with dry, sensitive skin, and even for your belly during pregnancy and postpartum.
How do I use the oil?
Generously apply to belly, breasts, hips and body, massaging gently into the skin.
I thought jojoba was a nut?
Jojoba is non-toxic and non-allergenic, making it suitable for newborns up. Extracted from a seed, rather than a nut, jojoba oil closely resembles the skin's natural sebum, providing hydration, without compromising the skin barrier.
Why does the oil have a neutral smell and not a scent/fragrance?
Fragrances are a collection of chemicals that are used to give a product a certain smell or scent. According to the International Fragrance Association (IFRA) 3,059 materials can be used in fragrance. Many of which, have been linked to reproductive toxicity, endocrine disruption, allergies and more. In fact, a single scent can contain anywhere from 50-300 chemicals. You can read more on this here.
Our little one's organs and immune systems are still developing and are incredibly vulnerable to fragrance (hence the main reason we chose not to include it).
Why a glass bottle?
As an eco-conscious small business, we aim to minimise plastic use as much as possible.
The potential risks of microplastics are greater for infants because they lack sufficiently developed metabolising enzymes, have a reduced ability to eliminate microplastics, and possess highly sensitive target organs. Because of this, plastic bottles were not an option.
Additionally, our amber glass bottle protects our formula from UV radiation.
