As a single mom, I can't do the hand-off to another parent. My little one isn't even sitting yet, so what I've done was put a towel on the floor of the shower and bathed her there - much easier with a handheld but doable even without. A good washcloth and scrub a dub dub. You then finish up with him/her there. You just need to adjust the water flow so it isn't drowning them while you shower. My little one LOVES the water so this was easy. We did it two weeks ago while staying in a US hotel shower-only room while our new house was being painted. She is 5 months
