Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
Before first use, sterilise the soothers according to the instructions provided with the self-sterilising travel case. This typically involves placing the soothers in the case with a small amount of water and microwaving for a few minutes. Always ensure the soothers are completely cool before giving to your baby.
Compatibility
The MAM Start Soother is specifically designed for newborns, generally suitable for babies aged 0-2 months. Its small size and lightweight design are perfect for this age group. It is compatible with standard soother clips and straps that attach to a button-style soother.
Care & Maintenance
- Daily Cleaning: Wash soothers regularly in warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents.
- Sterilisation: Sterilise daily or as needed using the self-sterilising travel case in the microwave. Follow the case's instructions for water amount and microwave time precisely.
- Inspection: Always inspect the soother before each use, especially when your baby has teeth. Pull the teat in all directions. Discard at the first signs of damage or weakness, such as stickiness or tears.
- Storage: Store soothers in a dry, covered container. Keep them away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Replacement: Replace soothers every 1-2 months for hygiene and safety reasons, or sooner if showing signs of wear and tear.
