Buying a Natural Rubber Soother means you get a product that is:

• Safer and more hygienic for your baby
• Made from 100% natural rubber
• Better for the environment

Plus you and your baby avoid:

• Allergy-causing substances
• Biphenol-A (BPA)
• Artificial colours
• Chemical softeners
• Parabens, PVC, and phthalates

You’re also reducing your carbon footprint

We manufacture and import our Natural Rubber Soothers and Natural Rubber Teethers directly from Malaysia. Many other brands are manufactured in or imported from Europe, interestingly natural rubber is only grown in Malaysia or South America, which means when you buy their brand the rubber is flown to Europe and then flown back to Australia and then to you. In one case we know of, the rubber goes from the country of origin to Italy then to Denmark and then to Australia.

When you choose a Natural Rubber Soother you minimise the carbon footprint and impact on the environment.

WHICH SIZE AND STYLE SHOULD I GET?

Natural Rubber Soothers are available in round (cherry) and orthodontic shapes, both have the same size shield and there are three sizes to choose from depending on the age of your baby:

• round small 0-3 months
• round medium 3-6 months
• round large 6+ months

Natural Rubber Soothers are helpful in satisfying your baby’s need for self-soothing, while preventing possible negative effects on teeth and palate formation created by his or her thumb sucking.

Round Shape - Tends to work better for breast-fed babies because the tongue is positioned under the nipple as it is during breast-feeding, which helps prevent nipple confusion. About 80% of babies tend to move soothers around in their mouths, so the position of the round soother can never end up around the wrong way. Because the tongue’s position never changes, midwives usually recommend starting babies on rounded soothers. Natural Rubber Soothers round model is available in small (0-3 months), medium (3-6 months) and large (6 months+).

ARE NATURAL RUBBER SOOTHERS MADE FROM SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS?

Absolutely! The natural rubber used to make our Soothers and Teethers comes from a manufacturer in Malaysia that values both sustainability and the environment. Through them we ensure the natural rubber is sustainable by replanting rubber trees and investing in research and development.

On top of their environment policy our supplier has a water treatment plant to clean up its processed water before discharging the water, meeting the standards of the Malaysian Department of Environment regarding public water ways. To ensure little waste they also recycle their waste by selling it to other manufacturers who convert the waste to a lower grade rubber, for example the production of rubber floor mats used in public parks & playgrounds.

WHAT IS THE NATURAL RUBBER SOOTHER DUMMY MADE OF?

They are made from a single piece of 100% pure Natural Rubber crafted from the sap of a Hevea Brasiliensis tree.

TO WHAT STANDARDS ARE THE NATURAL RUBBER SOOTHER DUMMIES PRODUCED AND TESTED?

We are proud to say that our Natural Rubber Soothers meet both Australian and European safety standards.

WHAT ARE THE CARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR MY NATURAL RUBBER SOOTHER?

Before first use:

Before using your Natural Rubber Soother, please sterilise by immersing in boiling water for 5minutes, then remove from the water & allow to cool. This will remove the oily film that naturally occurs on the rubber. Never allow to cool in the water.

Daily care:

Simply wash in warm water with mild liquid soap. If extra sterilisation is required place the dummy in a strainer and pour boiling water over the top. Do not sterilize in a bottle sterilizer, wash in a dishwasher or leave in boiling water after the first clean.

You should always inspect the dummy carefully before each use, especially when your child has teeth. Pull it in all directions and throw it away at the first sign of damage. Being natural rubber, your product will eventually turn brown and feel sticky to touch, this is when it should be replaced.

A cord or ribbon attached to a dummy poses a strangulation hazard, especially when attached to your child's clothes so best to use the dummy on its own if unsupervised.
