What parents love

Natural, breast-like designParents say the wide, soft silicone teats closely mimic the feel and movement of breastfeeding, helping babies transition smoothly.
Easy to clean and assembleReviewers find the bottles straightforward to sterilise, wash, and put back together, even during sleepy night feeds.
Reduces colic and air intakeThe anti-colic valve is praised for minimising gas and discomfort during feeding.

Worth knowing

Limited size optionsA few reviewers would like to see the Closer to Nature range offer a wider variety of bottle sizes to grow with their baby.
Compatibility issuesA small number of parents report problems using these bottles with certain breast pumps or other feeding accessories.

Best for

  • Newborns and young infants
  • Parents looking to transition smoothly between breastfeeding and bottle-feeding
  • Families seeking a trusted, award-winning bottle brand

May not suit

  • Parents needing to sterilise large batches of bottles at once

Tips from parents

Before You Buy

Check the included steriliser size fits your needs, or consider purchasing a separate one if you'll be sterilising multiple bottles daily.

Getting the Most Out of It

Introduce the Closer to Nature bottles gradually if your baby is used to a different teat shape, to allow time for them to adjust.

Safety Note

Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper assembly, use, and sterilisation to ensure safe feeding.
