General Questions
Make sure you wash baby’s bottles with soap and hot water after each use, bc bacteria builds up after each use from saliva. You don’t want any leftovers in there. And if the baby is very young or has health issues, you also need to sanitize the bottles every day. According to the CDC, here are alternative methods of cleaning baby’ s bottles to the T!
Silicone and nylon are two common materials used for bottle brushes. Silicone bristles are softer and more flexible than nylon ones, which makes them gentle on plastic bottles and less likely to scratch them. One caveat to silicon bristles is that they don’t hold soap very well and some mothers found a few bristles falling off and ending in their baby bottles. No bueno. Nylon bristles are stiffer and more abrasive than silicone ones, which makes them better at removing dirt and germs from bottles. If you are worried about water splashing everywhere then you can use our Kuvri splash guard with the nylon bristles to prevent splash back. Our Kuvri is easy to use, protects skin, clothes and countertops. Just Slide it on and off your brush handle with ease. It saves space with its collapsible design and hook to hang dry. We want you to use regular brushes not the silicone one’s for safety reasons. Plus you don’t have to go out and buy another brush.
Remember to always wash your hands before handling baby’s feeding items, for safety reasons of course. The CDC recommends we either use boiling water or steam the items, read more about it here. However, we are against this as a follow up study showed that babies swallow 16 million microplastic particles a day. The exposure to high heat slowly melts the plastic bottle.
We absolutely love Dr. Brown’s Soft Touch Bottle Brush. Simply because it has silicone bristles that are gentle on plastic bottles and prevent scratching. Baby center also created this useful list of different types of brushes to suit your needs.

Use a bottle brush and a nipple brush with gentle dishwashing liquid to clean baby bottles. Do not use a regular sponge or brush as they may not clean well and may damage the bottle, find out more from Colgate.
Silicone bottle brushes aren’t really ideal for cleaning baby’s bottles because they don’t hold soap or lather, which may not be as efficient as other types of brushes. Here are some reviews from similar products on Amazon
There is no definitive answer to how often you should replace your baby bottle brush or cleaner. It may depend on the type of brush, the frequency of use, and the condition of the brush. However, here are some general guidelines from the baby center community forum and homelization.
