Please read this important notice first
Consult a healthcare professional to make an informed choice on feeding your baby milks & weaning onto solid foods.
Breastfeeding is best for babies and provides many benefits. Combining breast feeding with bottle feeding in the first weeks of life may reduce the supply of your own breast milk, and reversing the decision not to breastfeed is difficult. If you choose to formula feed, you should follow manufacturer’s instructions for preparation and use carefully.

Because powdered milks are not sterile, failure to follow instructions may make your baby ill.
- Wash hands and sterilise all utensils according to manufacturers' instructions.
- Boil 1 litre of freshly run water. Leave kettle to cool for 30 minutes and no longer. Measure the required amount of water (refer to feeding guide) into a sterilised bottle. Be careful of scalding. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water.
- Using the scoop provided, level off the powder with the back of a clean, dry knife. Do not press/heap the powder.
- Add the correct measure of powder to the water. Too many or too few scoops can be harmful. Place the sterilised teat and cap on the bottle and shake immediately, vertically and vigorously for at least 10 seconds, until the powder is dissolved.
- Cool under running tap. Check temperature of feed. Feed immediately.
- There is one sachet and one scoop inside this pack.
- Open the sachet with scissors, cutting along the top.
- To close, carefully fold the open end of the sachet over.
- To maintain the best quality, we recommend using a clip to reseal the sachet. (Clip is not included).
