Tommee Tippee Essentials Decorated Cherry Soothers 6-18m, 2 each

Product Information

We’ll be taking into account the shape of the ‘nipple’, which materials to look for, the different sizes available, and why ventilation holes offer more than you may think.

The unique design of these soothers minimises contact with the sensitive skin around baby’s nose and mouth. Perfect for baby’s delicate skin, the curved shield sits comfortably between baby’s nose and chin and the air holes allow increased air flow and prevent a build-up of moisture to prevent skin irritation. Each product comes with a child-friendly design on the front, with other colours and age suitabilities available.The orthodontic teat is sized and shaped perfectly for babies' mouths, and features a hole on its reverse side so your young one won't struggle to breath when using the dummy. This steriliser will not work on latex dummies, meaning it's pretty much redundant if your child ends up preferring that type of material.

The pacifiers are aimed at babies from 0 - 6 months old, which probably explains the choice of material, though the brand do make a similar set for babies of 6-18 months. The descriptions of each product is referenced from the content available from the manufacturer, e-commerce sites etc.

Due to frequent use and the need to constantly clean them, dummies wear down easily, so consider investing in several. The main choice when picking a dummy is whether you want to go with an orthodontic teat or a cherry one.

While younger toddlers often have their things chucked in mum or dad’s suitcase, providing them with their own gives them some responsibility and the thrill of being one of the grown-ups.

The silicone dummies glow brightly during the night, which is perfect for parents as they can easily spot them in the dark and replace it without disturbing your cherub.
