baby bath

Small washing vessel

A baby bath is a small tub designed for bathing infants, shallow enough to support a newborn safely while keeping water at a manageable level.

The term also refers to the act of bathing a baby: It's time for her baby bath.

In British usage, baby bath more commonly means the tub itself, while Americans might say baby tub or infant bathtub.
