Frequently Asked Questions

WubbaNubs™

How do I clean the WubbaNub™?
Simply, surface wash with water and mild soap, rinse and air dry. You can gently brush after drying to restore the plush. Note from The Bink Cat: I have put mine in the washing machine several times with no ill effect. Air dry.

Are WubbaNubs™ dishwasher safe?
For sanitary reasons, we do not recommend placing the WubbaNub™ in the dishwasher.

Are the beans in the limbs of the plush baby safe?
Yes! The beans are sewn in separate safety sacks within the plush. The WubbaNub™ conforms to the ASTM F963-96a safety code requirements and is baby safe.

My baby has a latex allergy. Is this pacifier made of latex?
No. This pacifier is made of silicone. Also, it is medical grade and given out by many hospitals nationwide in their nurseries.

Bottle Snugglers™

When and how will I use my Bottle Snuggler?
Bottle Snugglers are a tool for moms who sometimes need to multi-task during baby's feeding. Because this is a very special bonding time, no one wants to stop the process, but propping the bottle under your chin doesn't always work. With this tool, a toddler can get his juice box with no drama because mom can use her free hand to open the refrigerator. They are also loved by moms of multiples who are sometimes just plain outnumbered.

Bottle Snugglers are not intended to be used for every feeding, but are a tool to help busy moms who occasionally need a third hand. We like to say, "You hold the baby, Bottle Snugglers holds the bottle, and everyone wins!" Babies should never be left alone with a bottle, as choking can occur under the best of circumstances.

Do Bottle Snugglers work with all bottle types and sizes?
Because of the growing baby product market, new bottles are always being developed. Bottle Snugglers work with nearly every bottle style and size, though there may be exceptions that we haven't tested yet. Bottles are getting wider, and it's important to put the Bottle Band on from the nipple end (usually the narrower end) first, then slide it down to the wider end. A few of the bottles that we have successfully used with Bottle Snugglers are: Playtex® Drop-Ins System®, Playtex® VentAire® Advanced, Evenflo, Dr. Brown's Natural Flow® Standard and Wide Neck, The Smart Glass Bottle by Born Free™, AVENT Natural Feeding Bottle, MAM Anti-Colic by Sassy®, Nuby™ Softflex™ Natural Nurser™, Nuby™ Non-Drip™ Standard Neck Bottles and Adiri™ Natural Nurser™.

How do I care for my Bottle Snugglers?
Bottle Snugglers are machine wash and dry!

Are the Eyes on my Paci-Plushies™ Baby safe?

How Do I clean my Paci-Plushies™?
After removing the pacifier from the Hug Ring™, you may machine wash the plush toy. Tumble dry low, or air dry and comb plush with your fingertips to restore the natural softness. Prior to initial use, boil pacifiers for two minutes. Pacifiers should be sanitized on a regular basis. Dishwasher safe.

What type of pacifier is included with my Paci-Plushies™ purchase?
One white Nookums™ Brand orthodontic pacifier with a silicone nipple is included with each purchase.

What types of pacifiers are compatible with my Paci-Plushies™?
Most Name Brand pacifiers will work with Paci-Plushies™. Pacifiers with a button handle are a perfect fit. For pacifiers with a ring handle, stretch the hug ring over the ring for attachment. A partial list of compatible pacifiers include: MAM Pacifiers, NUK Pacifiers, Nuby Pacifiers, AVENT Pacifiers, Munchkin Pacifiers, RazBaby Pacifiers, Luv n’ Care Pacifiers, Playtex Binky Pacifiers, Evenflo Pacifiers, Gerber Pacifiers, and Learning Curve Pacifiers. Check our Pacifier Compatibility Page for a complete list. Please note that NUK Pacifiers with the Ring Handle are compatible with Paci-Plushies™, but connect more loosely than other brands (don’t worry, they still get the job done!)
