Sippy Cups & Trainer Bottles NZ

FAQs – Trainer Bottles & Cups

1. When can my baby start using a trainer cup or sippy cup?
Trainer or sippy cups can be introduced to babies as young as 6 months, ideally around the time solid foods are introduced. They help babies learn to drink independently and wean off bottles.

2. What’s the difference between a trainer bottle and a sippy cup?
Trainer bottles have handles and soft spouts, making them easier to hold and softer on gums for an easy transition to self-feeding. Sippy cups usually have stiffer spouts or straws to help babies learn better control while drinking.

3. Are your cups spill-proof?
Yes! Many of our trainer cups and sippy cups feature leak-proof lids and valves so your little one can enjoy their drinks on the go.

4. Are the materials safe for babies?
Of course! All our cups are made with BPA-free, food-grade materials so they’re safe, strong, and easy to clean.

5. Can I put these in the dishwasher?
Most trainer bottles and cups are top-rack dishwasher safe. Check the product page or packaging for specific care instructions.

6. Can these be used as part of a baby shower gift?
Yes! Trainer cups are handy and often included in weaning gift sets or baby feeding bundles, making them a great gift for new parents.
