Care & Use Instructions
Mila's Keeper Silicone Storage Bottles can be used to directly pump breast milk into using most leading brands of breast pumps, to store breast milk, and to feed.*
In order to secure the leak proof patent-pending silicone lid, there are two ways to use:
1. Push the lid firmly down to the bottom of the mouth of the bottle and twist to tighten, ensuring there is no gap between lid and bottle.
OR the easiest way
2. Simply peel back the lid to open, and push firmly down making sure there is no gap between lid and bottle. See video here.
*Please note that when you first receive the bottle in its package, the lid might be vacuum sealed making it harder to peel open. Just know that once it is opened the first time, the vacuum will be released and it will be easier to use thereafter.
Use in Freezer & Bottle Warmer
Medical grade silicone is the purest form of silicone which contains no fillers, this means it handles even better under extreme conditions such as the freezer and even boiling water without fear of any leaching chemicals or microplastics which occurs when plastic is heated.
We would like to caution that when doing so, especially boiling, the silicone bottle will be extremely hot and you must use protective gloves to handle the hot glass.
Caring for your bottle:
Be sure to always clean your bottles before first use.
Dishwasher Safe
Yes silicone is fully safe in the dishwasher! We would also encourage a thorough rinse to remove residue beforehand especially in harder to reach places, such as the shoulders of the bottle.
Sanitize
Our bottles may be sanitized in multiple ways - by boiling water, the microwave or by UV sanitizer. If you find that you have any stubborn smells, you can also safely place in the oven or an airfryer for 5 minutes even to eliminate all odors!
