Getting Started

Thank you for choosing our Natural Start bottles! Here is everything you need to know to get the best experience with your bottle, for you and baby! 

Parts guide 

Before first use disassemble and place all components in boiling water for 5 minutes. This is to ensure hygiene. Follow the below steps to ensure your bottle is safe and ready to use:

  1. Disassemble your bottle. 
  2. Wash all parts in warm soapy water and rinse or use a dishwasher (top shelf only). 
  3. Use a nipple brush to gently clean the nipple C, do not turn inside out as you may damage it. Do not clean feeding hole or anti colic valve D with the brush, damage may occur. 
  4. Reassemble your nipple C and screw ring E and then place all parts in boiling water for 5 minutes or use another method of sterilisation such as microwave (see below), UV or steam sterilizer or cold water tablet/liquid solution (ensure you follow the manufacturer's instructions). 
  5. After sterilizing reassemble your bottle ready for use. 
  6. To prevent the nipple C from collapsing during feeding, pinch the valve D gently between your fingers to ensure it's open.

This method allows you to easily sterilize bottles using a microwave. Before self-sterilizing, always wash all components thoroughly and rinse in clear water or use dishwasher (top shelf only).

  1. Assemble the nipple C in the screw ring E and click the bottle hood A in place. 
  2. Pour exactly 50ml of water into the bottle base F. 
  3. Rest the assembled hood A, nipple C and screw ring E on top of the bottle base F. Loosely place the assembled hood on the bottle before microwaving. Do not tighten to allow pressure release. 
  4. Place in the microwave for 3 minutes. To sterilize multiple bottles see table below. Allow the bottles to cool down for at least 5 minutes before removing from microwave. For glass and silicone coated glass bottles allow 30 minutes to cool down with the microwave door open. 
  5. Pour out residual water and screw the assembled hood A, nipple C, and screw ring E on to the bottle base F ready for use. After self-sterilisation the bottle and nipple will remain sterile for 24 hours if the bottle is unopened and fully assembled. Always store the bottles fully assembled. 
  6. To prevent the nipple C from collapsing during feeding, pinch the valve D gently between your fingers to ensure it's open.

Microwave recommended times for all bottle sizes. Based on microwaves from 700 to 1000 Watts
