🍼 Measuring and prepping a baby bottle

Step-by-Step

1. 1. What to prepare

   Wash hands, clean the work surface and clean and sterilise feeding equipment. Measure water first and add the exact powder amount with the scoop supplied for that product.

2. 2. What to check

   Prepare one feed at a time where possible; cool safely before offering, never microwave, never prop a bottle and discard milk left after a feed. Do not dilute, concentrate or add cereal.

3. 3. In Ireland

   HSE formula preparation uses freshly boiled water cooled for no more than 30 minutes so it remains at least 70°C when mixed. Measure water first, add the product’s exact powder amount, then cool safely before feeding. Sterilise equipment; do not use a universal scoop ratio.
