Whether you choose breastfeeding, bottle feeding, or a bit of both… there are many ways to feed your baby. When it comes down to it, you’ll choose what’s best for you and your little one.

So, don’t stress! Take a deep breath and we’ll help you work it out with our handy introduction to all things bottle feeding.

Over 50 years of experience

We started making baby products to make life simpler for real families.

And we’ve never stopped!

Our bottle nipples are made from soft silicone and have a special breast-like shape that encourages a natural latch, preventing nipple confusion when switching between breast, bottle and back again.

Meet the family

The unique curved shape of our bottles makes it easy for you to hold your baby in the most natural position when they’re feeding – close to you.

 Whichever bottle you choose, we guarantee that they’re all BPA, BPS and phthalate-free for ultimate reassurance.

Take a look at the videos below to help you decide which bottle is best for you and your baby.

Our original breast-like bottle that’s shaped like a breast because babies prefer it that way. The flex and stretch of the special nipple allows your baby to feed at their natural pace.

Say goodbye to the discomfort caused by colic with Tommee Tippee Advanced Anti-Colic bottles. 95% of babies experience fewer colic symptoms*, providing superior performance for parents.

Our silicone bottles are soft, squishy and comforting, allowing the warmth of the milk to be felt by baby as they feed. Boob soft for comfort and warmth, they feel just like mom!

Go with the flow

Wondering how many bottles and nipples you’ll need?

Newborn babies can feed anywhere between 10 to 12 times in 24 hours, so you’ll need four to six 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.

Our bottles come in a range of sizes that grow with your baby, and our baby bottle nipples have different flow rates too, so that milk baby’s milk can flow faster as they grow.
