How dads can help

While one of the best things about breastfeeding is that there’s no special equipment needed, there are many great buys that can help make the breastfeeding experience as fulfilling as can be.

Tommee Tippee’s new Closer to Nature range in its eye-catching packaging has been specially designed to support breastfeeding with co-ordinating products that can help your partner and baby breastfeed for longer.

Top of the wish list are the ultracomfortable and convenient Closer to Nature Manual and Electric Breast Pumps, which enable you to express breast milk into a bottle or storage pot, for dad to give to baby later... especially in the middle of the night! At the heart of the Closer to Nature range is the breast shaped bottle and teat which you and your baby will love.

The soft-touch teat is deliberately extra wide to give your baby something to ‘latch on’ to in the same way as the little one latches on to the breast.

And the bottle is made to fit comfortably into the hand - even dad’s big hand - so that baby can cuddle in close. Best of all, we are sure that your baby will be so content feeding with the Closer to Nature teat that he’ll be able to switch from breast to bottle - and more importantly back again - with ease.
