FAQ

Q: How to open the feeder easily?

A: For safety reasons, the feeder is designed hard to open. That way, your little one is unable to open it on their own.

In order to open the feeder, we recommend putting your nail in between the lip of the head part and the seal ring to prise open a gap to make it easier to separate them. If you can’t use your nail, you can also use other tools to prise open the gap, such as a spoon.

Q: Will the clear silicone food pouch get stained?

A: The clear silicone pouch may be stained. Silicone is an absorbent material and can absorb the colours and smells of substances it comes in contact with. Although your silicone products can go in the dishwasher, we recommend hand washing with hot, soapy water. To sterilise, we recommend boiling in water for 2-3 minutes of using a steam steriliser. We strongly recommend not using any bleach-based agents or sterilising tablets to clean your Haakaa products as it can affect the clarity of your product. Although your products might become cloudy after using detergent to wash them, silicone does not leach and it is still completely safe to use. If you are still concerned, you can sterilise your pouch again by boiling in water, just to be safe!
