Recently attended a focus group discussion on baby bedtime routine at Ascott Hotel (formerly Oakwood) sponsored by Johnson’s baby. The “round-table” discussion was participated in by the press, working moms, Johnson’s executives and doctors.

A survey study was presented revealed that Filipino babies were among the lowest among Asians and Caucasians which clocked in night time sleep of 9 hours and 9 minutes compared to Caucasians with 10 hours on the average. This low result according to doctors may be attributed to not having a baby bedtime routine.

Johnson’s baby aside from sharing their clinically proven baby bedtime routine also launched products that will help the baby get good, quality and sound sleep.
