Here at Gugu Guru, Mom Creators, we believe in the power of authentic reviews from the real experiences of moms. Hear from our Mom Creators on their experience with nanobébé and their amazing line of baby feeding products.

Kennedy

Mom Kennedy Taylor writes, “I am so glad I have the nanobébé bottles, electric brushes, and drying rack. My son is picky when it comes to nipples but he LOVES the nanobébé bottles and took to it immediately. The electric brush is a huge lifesaver. It literally cut my washing time in half! It’s genius! The drying rack is great and I love that it’s easy to pack for travel!  All in all, Nanobebe is great and so are their products. I am very well pleased!” 

Rachel

New mom Rachel Melvin shares, “As a first-time mom, I search for all the ways to make things quicker and easier for me, so I can spend more time with my baby and less time worrying about the little things. With nanobébé bottles, I no longer have to worry about leaky parts or making a mess. Plus, they’re so comfy for both me and my little one during our feedings. When we’re done, I’m now excited to get to wash the bottles because of the Electric Bottle Brush… who knew bottle washing could be fun AND get done quicker with peace of mind that it’s getting super clean. This first-time mom is so thankful for Nanobébé!

Sabrina

Second-time mom Sabrina Hermsen describes, “nanobébé Flexy has been our go-to for both of our feeding journeys! My first baby was colicky and had trouble transferring from breast to bottle. As a first-time mom, I had tried every trick in the book to make that transition seamless and nanobébé Flexy was the only bottle he could do that with. Now we’re three months into our second postpartum journey and I didn’t even bother trying any brand besides Nanobebe. This time around we got the electric bottle brush and it’s an absolute game-changer! We’ve saved so much time washing bottles and it makes our routine so much smoother. It’s a must-have especially if you have multiples!”

Sandy Bastien is a wife, mom of five, and entrepreneur. She became a stay-at-home mom after having her second child. Since then she has been committed to self-development and supporting aspiring stay-at-home moms on becoming their best, personally and professionally. Sandy also created the BabaLID, a baby bottle with an attachable lid!

Gugu Guru: How and why did you start your company?

Sandy Bastien: As a busy mom of five children, wife, and business owner, I hated traveling with my baby’s bottle that was missing its lid. I needed a bottle that supported my life as a woman balancing home life and work life without having to spend more time and money. I needed a bottle that gave me more time to enjoy and be present in the moment. I couldn’t find it so I created it.

GG: How do you balance work and family?

SB: I focus more on priority than balance. Some days things in my family are urgent and as a result, my business activities will get less of my attention. Then there are days when my business concerns are pressing and as such my family gets less of my attention. Being aware of that is where the balance really happens. Real balance is knowing that you can’t always give your 100% attention to your business and family at the same time. Give yourself grace, knowing that you are always doing your best wherever your attention is pulled, is what’s most important for maintaining balance.

GG: What’s the best part of being a “mompreneur” and running your own business?

SB: The ability to spend as much time with my family is the absolute best. It’s not always the easiest but I love being available for my children.

GG: What is your top baby product must-have?

SB: FridaBaby Nosefrida and Filters
