Between 6 and 18 months, feeding routines often begin to change. Larger bottle sizes, age-appropriate teats, learner cups and later-stage soothers become more relevant.

Bottles for 6–18 months

Larger capacities such as 250ML–300ML can be practical as feed volumes increase. Always confirm the supplied teat stage and flow before buying.

Soothers for 6–18 months

Use soothers marked for the correct age range. Selected NUK Genius and character soothers in Red Rhino's range are specifically labelled for 6–18 months.

Introducing learner cups

Some babies begin using learner cups before 6 months, while others transition later. Handles, soft spouts and straws can support independent drinking skills. Read our learner cup guide.

Cleaning still matters

As children use more feeding products, consistent cleaning and drying become even more important. Keep dedicated bottle and cup brushes separate from general kitchen cleaning tools.
