Abstract: There is provided an article adapted for wearing by a user while giving and removing an infant, individual or animal from a bath. The article has a body portion made from a flexible, fabric-based material capable of absorbing water. The body portion includes an upper portion that comprises a left upper portion and a right upper portion. There is an opening defined within the upper portion and which is adapted to allow the user to slip her head through the opening and thereby wear the article. The opening also defines a loop portion that rests around the back of the user's neck when the user wears the article. When the user wears the article, the left upper portion and the right upper portion rest on the respective shoulders of the user, thereby permitting the user to wear the article without having the article hang only from the user's neck, and distributing the weight of the article across the shoulders of the user.
