We all know that sterilizing the baby's bottles, baby utensils, and pacifiers is important because doing so ensures that these items are thoroughly cleaned. An infant's digestive system is quite sensitive, so sterilizing offers an added protection against bacteria and viruses. However, for parents with a new baby, this chore can be tedious. You'll have to wash, boil or steam, then dry the items completely. Fortunately, you can check the varied brands of UV light sterilizer Philippines has to offer. They get the job done easier, without you having to boil bottles.
UV light sterilizer Philippines: Choosing the right one
According to the National Health Service, sterilizing should be done on all of your little one's feeding equipment such as bottles and nipples until the baby is at least 12 months old. This will protect him against infections such as diarrhea and vomiting. This is why sterilizers rank high on every mom's shopping list.
