Mothers and Babies, March 2008

Promoted as the world’s first pre-sterilised soother, the Steri-Soother, form Longford-based company Shasta, is a handy invention. You just pop open a pack wherever you are and soothe your baby without the 15 minute hassle of sterilising. It’s particularly suitable for babies from birth to three months of age as it is taste and odor free.

If you’re expecting, the Steri-Soother is a good addition to your overnight maternity bag. It means you don’t have to worry about having to use the hospitals sterilising facilities. The soother can be used again once re-sterilised. It comes in a neutral shade with orthodontic friendly teats, which are recommended by experts for the correct development of teeth.

Priced at €4.99, the soothers are available in all good pharmacies nationwide as well as Murphy’s Prams and Nursery Store, Rathcoole; JC SAvages, Swords; Mullingar Hospital Shop; and many other independent retail shops nationwide. For further details, go to www.shasta.ie
