Practical little UV steriliser

Anna L

"This is our third baby and we decided to invest in a good UV steriliser instead of doing the old-school steam steriliser and honestly, I wish we made the switch sooner The sterilise and dry+sterilise functions are both super handy and make cleaning bottles and dummies so simple."

Great all round steriliser

Jade

"These are not only best value on the market, the best to use. I’ve got two babies that I am exclusively pumping for. These bags are an absolute game changer when travelling with my two infants. They’re slightly bigger than all the other ones on the market so they easily fit my breast pumps. They also fit larger bottles of here as other brands don’t. Hands down the best!!!"

FAQs

Why do I need to sterilise my baby's bottles and feeding accessories?

Babies under 12 months have developing immune systems, which makes them more vulnerable to bacteria that can linger on feeding equipment even after washing. Sterilising kills 99.9% of those remaining germs and reduces the risk of tummy bugs and infections. Once your baby hits 12 months, thorough washing is usually sufficient, though sterilising is still a good habit when someone in the house is unwell.

What's the difference between steam sterilising and microwave sterilising?

Both methods use heat and steam to kill bacteria without harsh chemicals. The main difference is capacity and convenience. A steam steriliser like the Steam Steriliser & Bottle Warmer Kit fits up to 6 bottles and includes a drying function, making it ideal for home use. Microwave sterilising with the Microwave Steriliser or Microwave Steriliser Bags is faster and more portable, but has a smaller capacity. For a deeper breakdown, the UV Sterilisation vs Steam guide covers both options in detail.

Do I need to wash bottles before sterilising?

Yes, always wash first. Sterilising is not a substitute for washing, it's the step that comes after. Rinse bottles and accessories with warm soapy water to remove milk residue, then sterilise to eliminate any remaining bacteria. Skipping the wash means residue can interfere with the sterilisation process.

How often should I sterilise?

For newborns, sterilise after every use. As your baby gets older and their immune system strengthens, you can sterilise once daily and wash in between. If a bottle or teat has been dropped on the floor or left out for an extended period, sterilise again before use regardless of age.

Are the sterilising products safe for all bottle types?

Yes. All New Beginnings sterilisers are compatible with standard baby bottles, teats, dummies, and pump accessories. The Microwave Steriliser Bags are reusable up to 20 times and safe for use with most bottle materials. Always check that any items placed in a microwave steriliser are microwave-safe before use.

How do I clean the hard-to-reach parts of bottles and pump accessories?

This is where the Baby Electric Cleaning Brush makes a real difference. The 360° rotating head and interchangeable brush sizes reach into bottle necks, teat openings, and pump valves that a standard brush often misses. The brush heads are dishwasher safe and compatible with UV sterilising

What are bamboo dry wipes used for in a feeding and cleaning routine?

The Bamboo Dry Wipes 100pk are hypoallergenic, chemical-free, and soft enough for newborn skin. They're useful for wiping down surfaces, cleaning little hands and faces after feeds, and nappy changes. They can be used dry or wet, making them a versatile addition to the change table or nappy bag.
