Which bottle is best? Do I need to sterilize?
How will I ever leave the house if baby needs all this stuff?
There’s lots to think about, so take a deep breath and we’ll help you work it out here at Tommee Tippee with our handy introduction to all things bottle feeding.
Breastfeeding, bottle feeding, or a bit of both… there are so many ways to feed your baby. When it comes down to it, you’ll choose what’s best for you and your little one. Whatever you decide, we’re here to help. There’s lots to think about, and you’ll have many questions, but before we get onto cleaning, sterilizing, making, storing and warming feedings, let’s start with the bottle.
More than 50 years of bottle feeding experience
We started making baby products in 1965 with one clear goal: to make life simpler for real families. Our two biggest bottle feeding innovations - the most breast-like nipple ever and extra-wide neck bottles were both ideas from moms. Thanks moms… you’re brilliant.
Shaped like a breast, feels like a breast because babies prefer it that way.
All Tommee Tippee bottles have one thing in common: the most breast-like nipple ever. This easy-latch-on nipple mimics the flex, stretch and shape of mum’s breast to encourage a natural latch. Just one of the reasons why 97% of moms recommend our bottles.*
Made of soft silicone, the nipple feels closer to skin for complete comfort at feeding time. The wide bottle neck encourages your baby’s natural feeding action. And the bottle’s unique curved, compact shape makes it easy for you to hold baby in the most natural position when they’re feeding – close to you.
Our bottles come in a range of sizes that grow with your baby. And baby bottle nipples have different flow rates too, so milk can flow faster as your baby grows.
Who knew there were so many nipples?
Did you know that not all nipples are the same? There are different shapes, different materials and some deliver baby’s milk faster than others.
Choosing the right nipple for your baby can make it easier to move from breast to bottle feeding, help reduce gas and colic and make feeding baby easier. If this is news to you, don’t worry, we’re here to help you make sense of it all.
*In a 2012 on-line survey of more than 500 moms who used our Closer to Nature bottles, 97% agreed

Hungry babies don’t like waiting to be fed and will make their feelings known in the only way they can.
Those late night and early morning feedings when everyone just wants to get some more sleep can be a real stress test.
UV sterilizer
Viruses & bacteria don't stand a chance against the UV Sterilizer. UV light kills viruses & 99.9% of harmful bacteria without heat, steam or harsh chemicals *Tested against Coronavirus (tested to EN 16777) and Influenza H1N1.
How many bottles and nipples?
Newborn babies can feed anywhere between 8-12 times in 24 hrs, so you’ll need for 4-6 bottles and nipples to get started with. You usually get nipples with your bottles, but it’s a good idea to have a few extra in case they get damaged or lost.
Warming and on the go
Did you know that babies like their milk warm? A bottle warmer will warm milk from the fridge or freezer, and is useful for both formula and breastmilk. If you’re out and about our insulated bottle bags help keep baby’s milk at the right temperature for a feed on the go.
