Bathe her with Oatmeal (Quaker old fashioned) Using a nylon stocking place 1/4 cup oatmeal in the toe and then tie it loosely. Place the ball in the bath water and let set until water becomes milky. Place baby in the water and use "milk" from oatmeal to wash her. You can also use Kirk’s Castile soap since it is very pure and non-irritating. For flare ups use corn starch it is better than a steroidal cream and has no side effects. Also be sure she wears loose clothing on hot days preferably 100% cotton or other natural fiber so she won’t sweat as much.
Also when she is old enough be sure to use a good sunscreen to prevent burning since dry skin is more prone to permanent damage from sunburn.
You will also want to watch her as she learns new foods some may cause flareups so they should be avoided.
GOOD LUCK!
