Product Information

Full details

The MAM Start Soother is designed specifically for newborns aged 0-2 months, offering a comforting and familiar experience for your baby. Its key win is the high acceptance rate of its SkinSoft Silicone teat, which mimics the feel of a mother's skin, promoting natural soothing. A potential caveat is its narrow age range, meaning you'll need to transition to a larger soother as your baby grows.

FAQs

What age is the MAM Start Soother suitable for?

The MAM Start Soother is specifically designed for newborns aged 0-2 months.

How do I sterilise the MAM Start Soother?

You can use the included self-sterilising travel case. Simply place the soothers in the case, add 25ml of water, close, and microwave for 3 minutes at 750-1000 watts. Alternatively, you can boil them in water for five minutes.

Is the soother safe for my baby's teeth development?

Yes, the MAM Start Soother features a thin, symmetrical teat developed with dental experts to support healthy tooth and jaw development.

What is SkinSoft Silicone and why is it important?

SkinSoft Silicone is an ultra-soft material designed to mimic the feel of a mother's skin. It's important because its familiar texture helps achieve a high acceptance rate among babies, making soothing easier.

Can I attach a soother clip or strap to this soother?

Yes, the soother features a handy button that allows for firm attachment to most standard soother straps or clips (sold separately).

How often should I replace the soother?

For hygiene and safety, it's recommended to replace soothers every 1-2 months, or immediately at the first sign of wear, damage, or stickiness.

Troubleshooting

Baby refuses the soother.

Ensure the soother is clean and dry. Offer it gently when your baby is calm and not overly hungry or tired. Sometimes, it takes multiple attempts and different positions for acceptance. Do not force it.

Soother appears sticky or discolored.

This can be a sign of wear or degradation of the silicone. Discard the soother immediately and replace it with a new one. Do not attempt to clean or reuse a compromised soother.

Skin irritation or redness around the baby's mouth.

Ensure the soother is cleaned frequently and thoroughly. Check that the air holes in the shield are not blocked. Make sure the soother is not wet when offering it to the baby, as prolonged moisture can cause irritation. If irritation persists, consult a healthcare professional.

Soother gets lost frequently.

Utilize a soother strap (not included) by attaching it securely to the soother's button and clipping it to your baby's clothing to prevent it from falling or getting lost.

Pros and Cons

High Acceptance Rate: SkinSoft Silicone is widely accepted by babies, making it easier to introduce.

Prevents Skin Irritation: Thoughtful design with air holes keeps delicate skin comfortable and dry.
Convenient Sterilisation: The included self-sterilising case simplifies hygiene, especially when traveling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

Before First Use: Sterilise the soothers thoroughly. Use the self-sterilising travel case as directed below or boil in water for five minutes.
Inspect: Always inspect the soother carefully before each use, especially when the baby has teeth. Pull the soother in all directions to check for damage.

Compatibility

Age: This soother is specifically designed for babies aged 0-2 months.
Soother Straps: The soother button is compatible with most standard soother straps for secure attachment.

Care & Maintenance

Daily Cleaning: Wash thoroughly in warm water with mild baby-safe detergent before each use. Rinse well.
Self-Sterilising Case:

Place soothers in the case with the teat pointing downwards.
Fill the case with water up to the marked line (25ml).
Close the case and heat in a microwave for 3 minutes at 750-1000 watts.
Allow to cool for at least 5 minutes before opening. Drain any remaining water.

Storage: Store soothers in a dry, covered container. Do not leave in direct sunlight or heat, or leave in disinfectant for longer than recommended, as this may weaken the teat.
Replacement: Replace soothers every 1-2 months for hygiene and safety reasons, or immediately at the first sign of wear, damage, or stickiness. Do not dip the teat in sweet substances (e.g., honey or jam) as this can lead to tooth decay and is unhygienic.
