The questions you may have
Do the teats have an anti-colic function?
Yes, the NUK Perfect Match bottle and teat system with a NUK anti-colic vent lets food flow smoothly and helps with colic. Your baby can drink in a relaxed way and you, as parents, can feel good about giving this baby bottle. NUK anti-colic for fewer bubbles and tears!
Is the NUK Perfect Match baby bottle leakproof?
With the cap on, the baby bottle is leakproof and the teat is protected from getting dirty, so you can be sure that no mishap will occur. A little bit of advice: if you shake the baby bottle very hard, some drops may leak out, but shaking it hard should be avoided in general as it causes air bubbles to form in the food.
How do I choose the right teat for my baby?
The right flow is different for every baby. It’s good to start with the S teat and see from there if the flow needs to be increased. A sign to switch to a faster flow is when your baby becomes restless while feeding. A sign that the flow is too fast is milk running out of the corners of your baby’s mouth while feeding. We recommend the Flow Control teat, which lets your baby regulate the flow themselves.
Can I give NUK Perfect Match baby bottles to breastfed babies too?
Yes, NUK Perfect Match baby bottles can, of course, also be given to breastfed babies.
How does the NUK temperature control indicator work?
The NUK temperature control indicator shows at a glance when the correct temperature for feeding has been reached. The scale on the baby bottle changes colour depending on the temperature of the contents. If the food is too hot, the normally blue indicator changes to white. Important: the indicator acts as an additional check only. Always test the temperature of warm drinks with a few drops on your wrist. Ideally, the liquid should be at body temperature (37°C = medium blue).
How do I choose the right soother?
Opt for a soother shape that is gentle on teeth, jaw and palate*: curved to nestle against the palate, flat and curved inwards to leave room for the tongue, and extra-thin so that lips can close almost completely. The icing on the cake? The Perfect Match Air Soother features extra-large openings for increased airflow.
Does a soother damage teeth?
A soother won’t cause long-term dental issues if you choose a shape that supports healthy teeth and jaw development. Keep in mind these three aspects: a very soft upper side that nestles smoothly against the palate; an extra-flat shape that leaves room for the tongue; and an extra-thin neck so that lips can close almost completely.
Can a soother help reduce the risk of SIDS?
Did you know that using a soother at bedtime can be a little guardian angel for your baby’s sleep? It might help reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) because it helps keep airways clear. Even though the soother can be a wonderful ally, always keep in mind the essential rules for safe sleep: baby on their back, in a safe, cosy cot.
What are NUK soothers made of?
Our soothers in New Zealand are made from silicone. It’s durable, easy to clean and heat-resistant, so it stands up well to sterilising. Check your baby’s soother regularly and replace it if you see any wear or damage.
What are the key features of the NUK Perfect Match Learner Bottle?
The NUK Learner Bottle is designed to support your baby’s transition to independent drinking. Key features include a soft silicone spout for a smooth experience and ergonomically-shaped handles for an easy grip.
How does the soft silicone spout benefit my baby?
The soft silicone spout is pleasantly gentle, making the transition from breast or bottle comfortable.
Is the NUK Learner Bottle easy for my baby to hold?
Yes! It comes with ergonomically-shaped handles that are perfect for little hands, helping your baby confidently hold the bottle independently.
What age is the NUK Perfect Match Learner Bottle suitable for?
NUK Perfect Match Learner Bottles are generally suitable for babies from around 6 months, supporting them as they learn to drink independently.
Is the NUK Perfect Match Learner Bottle suitable for travel or on-the-go use?
Yes, it is. It comes with a cap for on-the-go adventures and features NUK’s leak-proof technology. It reliably supports your child in learning to drink water with as little mess as possible.
