Always supervise your baby during bottle feeding. This article is general information, not individualized medical advice.

An easy-to-open bottle still needs careful cleaning.

Start with the final care instructions

Follow the instructions supplied with your bottle and nipple. Dishwasher and sterilizing guidance will be included with your bottle. Do not microwave the bottle or its components.

Take the bottle apart

The Nessa design includes a PPSU body, silicone nipple, collar ring, base cap, seal and travel cap. Clean every supplied component according to the instructions.

Access from both ends

The removable bottom gives access to the bottle interior. Wash with suitable dish soap and a dedicated bottle brush as directed, rinse thoroughly, and allow parts to air dry on a clean surface. Inspect each part for damage before reassembly and use.

Individual care needs

Ask your pediatrician about additional cleaning or sanitizing precautions for your baby. Do not assume that every material or component tolerates the same heating method. Final validated care instructions will be provided before shipping.

About the bottle

Nessa is an 8 oz PPSU bottle designed for babies who are beginning to hold their own bottle.
