Innobaby
In 2000, Jee and Kristen met through their husbands who were college roommates and soon entered the world of motherhood and play dates. While sharing their experiences and challenges, they realized that they both had desires to do something more and shared a level of enthusiasm and spirit to create what is now Innobaby.
Based in the suburbs of Chicago, Innobaby is a women-founded and family-owned business whose goal is to give parents a new, safe means of feeding their young ones - even while on-the-go. The company offers a number of product lines differentiated by their unique “SMART” solution labels, which highlight each line’s utility and features.
For instance, the Nursin’ Smart line was created with breastfeeding moms in mind who also want to include bottlefeeding in their routines. The Din Din Smart line aims to make mealtime both healthy and fun for even the pickiest of little eaters. Known for thinking outside the box, Innobaby continues to deliver innovative solutions to meet the changing needs of savvy parents.

Responds to Bottle Feeding & Breastfeeding Challenges
- These natural nipples are round and soft to replicate the areola. During feeding, both the nipple and areola stretch together, promoting a correct latch-on so babies experience a similar feeling as they would during breastfeeding.
- Holes on the nipples are placed off-center to mimic the natural breastfeeding experience. This means the milk is released at various angles, not in a straight line.
- Babies must use extra suckling motion and pressure to start the milk flow, as they would during breastfeeding. Therefore, babies are active participants in the feeding process, controlling rather than reacting passively to milk flow.
- Also, the benefit of extra jaw movement/exercise encourages healthy oral development.
- The shape, length, and softness of the nipple is designed to avoid “bottle feeding tongue.” This may discourage nipple confusion and protect babies from inhaling extra air during feeding (with correct latch-on).
Highest Quality Material
- 100% pure medical grade silicone / LSR (liquid silicone rubber)
- All silicone parts are free of any petroleum-based chemicals
- Nonporous material does not harbor bacteria
- Silicone parts will not deform even with extended use and sterilization
- BPA-, phthalate-, PVC, and lead-free
Economical Choice
- Part of the Grow-with-Me system, which allows for extended use through the toddler years
- Parents can reuse the system for every child in the family
Parental Praise
These thoughtfully designed natural nipples require the same suckling motion as breastfeeding, so babies can control the flow of liquid rather than simply reacting to it. This means they’ll be less likely to spit up and can drink more easily at their own speed. Happy babies, happy parents.

Parental Praise
Babies may more readily take this bottle due to the softness and flexibility, which resembles breastfeeding experience. This makes this an easy answer to breastfeeding families faced with ordinary bottle refusal.
The specially designed natural nipple requires the same suckling motion as breastfeeding, so babies can control the flow of liquid rather than reacting to it. This means less likelihood of spit-up, gassiness, and perhaps even a happier baby.
Bottle converts easily into a training straw cup with a simple converter kit, which can help ease the challenges of transitioning to this new self-drinking stage. The liquid control valve allows you to control the liquid flow from slow to fast. It can also be used as a tube feeder.

- When used correctly, the silicone straw cup can also be also used as a tube feeder.
Why Use Straw Cup vs. Sippy Cup?
- Common valved sippy cups are designed to be leak proof, but the tradeoff is a less than ideal tool for teaching babies to drink from a cup. Oftentimes, they require intense sucking motion to release liquid, which may lead to several problems.
- Speech therapists argue that prolonged exposure to sippy cups can affect oral development, which can in turn interfere with speech skills.
- Many pediatric dentists also recommend straw cups, which liquid to bypass teeth when drinking and thereby reduce tooth decay.
- Some breastfed babies may face feeding confusion after drinking from a sippy cup, as it requires strong sucking motion and can cause babies to latch-on a little differently.
