Re: [Everything doTERRA] Re: Is Onguard safe for babies?

Sorry I have not gotten back with you sooner. I have had a women's retreat
and have been pretty busy.
You can diffuse OnGuard, or the citrus, even Balance and/or Lavender in
a room full of children.

I've been wondering about this too. I lead the Children's Ministry at
my church and with cold season starting up I was thinking about
diffusing OnGuard in the nursery and toddler rooms (birth - 2 1/2
years old). Right now the youngest baby that comes is 2 months old.
What do you think? Should I diffuse Wild Orange instead? Or would
something else be better? I would need something very safe as I do not
know the medical background of any of these little ones, with the
exception of one with a severe peanut allergy.
