Olena's Clinical Favorites for Feeding & Transitions
"My product selections come from years of seeing what works best in a clinical hospital setting for maternal-child health. These are the proven tools that support successful feeding and help families navigate important milestones like cup and utensil use."
Stainless Steel Baby Spoons
"The transition to solids requires the right tools. Stainless steel is easy to clean and sanitize. These spoons have a perfect size and shape for a baby’s mouth and are durable enough to withstand daily use."
Tiny Cup
"A cornerstone of oral development. This small, open cup teaches a baby to drink from a rim with a minimal spill risk. It's a fantastic tool to introduce at 4-6 months to help strengthen facial muscles crucial for speech and feeding."
