How to Sterilise MAM bottles: A Quick Guide

Ensuring your baby's health and safety is a top priority, and thoroughly cleaning and sterilising their feeding bottles and breast pump parts is crucial. This prevents harmful bacteria and maintains the longevity of the equipment. In this blog post, we'll explore the best methods to clean and sterilise MAM bottles, helping you keep your baby's feeding equipment safe and clean.

Why Sterilising is Essential

Sterilising baby bottles, especially MAM bottles, and breast pump parts is crucial because it eliminates bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens that can cause illness in infants. Newborns and infants have delicate immune systems, making them more susceptible to illnesses. Proper sterilisation ensures that feeding equipment is safe for every use. 

There are several traditional methods to sterilise MAM bottles:

Boiling Water:

• Boil disassembled bottle parts for 10 minutes.
• Use tongs to remove and air dry on a clean towel.

Microwave Steriliser:

• Place parts in a microwave steriliser with water.
• Microwave for 5-10 minutes.

Electric Steam Steriliser:

• Load parts into the steriliser with water.
• Run for about 10 minutes.

Chemical Sterilising Solution:

• Submerge parts in a diluted solution for 30 minutes.
• Rinse with boiled water before use.

Traditional Sterilising of MAM bottles is time consuming. 

While traditional sterilisation methods are effective, they can be time-consuming and require constant attention. For busy parents, the Bebello Washer offers a more efficient solution, simplifying the process of cleaning, sterilising, and drying baby bottles and breast pump parts.

The Bebello Washer washes baby bottles and pump parts, then automatically transitions to a sterilisation cycle using high-temperature steam to kill 99.9% of harmful bacteria and viruses. This device eliminates the need to transfer parts between the sink, steriliser, and drying rack. It fits four MAM bottles comfortably and can accommodate up to six at a squeeze.

Using the Bebello Washer with MAM bottles is straightforward:
