MAM Start Soothers excel in providing comfort and promoting healthy oral development for the youngest babies. The SkinSoft Silicone teat is engineered to feel familiar, often leading to quick acceptance by infants who might reject other soothers. This can be particularly helpful for parents seeking to soothe a fussy baby or establish a routine.
From a developmental perspective, the orthodontic design is a critical feature. It means the soother's shape is adapted to support the natural development of a baby's jaw and teeth, a significant consideration given prolonged soother use. Parents can feel confident that they are choosing a product that has been developed with dental experts.
The self-sterilising travel case offers immense practical utility. In just three minutes, using only water and a microwave, you can sterilise the soothers, making them ready for use. This is incredibly useful for busy parents, when travelling, or simply for quick sanitisation between uses without needing bulky equipment. For instance, after a visit to grandparents, you can quickly sterilise the soothers before returning home, ensuring hygiene is maintained effortlessly. Always ensure the soothers are clean before sterilising.
Initial Sterilisation: Before first use, or after extended periods of non-use, sterilise the soothers. Place the soother in the travel case, add 25ml of water (up to the marked level), close the case, and microwave for 3 minutes at 750-1000 watts. Allow to cool for at least 5 minutes before removing.
Inspect: Always inspect the soother before each use, especially if the baby has teeth. Pull the soother in all directions to check for damage or weakness. Discard at the first signs of damage or wear.
Age Range: These soothers are specifically designed for babies aged 0-2 months or premature infants due to their extra-small size.
Material: The teat is made from MAM SkinSoft Silicone. The overall product is BPS and BPA-free.
Cleaning: Clean the soother before each use. Wash in warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or anti-bacterial cleaners.
Sterilisation: Regularly sterilise the soothers using the self-sterilising travel case or another suitable method (e.g., steam steriliser, boiling water). For boiling, place in boiling water for 5 minutes, ensuring no air is trapped inside the teat.
Storage: Store soothers in a clean, dry, covered container. Do not expose to direct sunlight or heat, and do not leave in disinfectant for longer than recommended, as this may weaken the teat.
Replacement: For hygiene and safety reasons, replace soothers every 1-2 months, or sooner if there are any signs of damage or weakness.
