🙌 choose to support the businesses that pour everything into developing and independently testing SAFE products for use by your babe.
Apologies in advance, but I need to have a bit of a rant 😬😬😬
I’m seeing an increase in new businesses popping up selling clearly non-compliant dummy chains, along with new bead suppliers with no idea of mandatory safety requirements.
Let me tell you now - a quick google search and browse of YouTube will NOT give you the information required to make a safe dummy chain. Period.
As a business that has been immersed in this industry for 8 years in July (😱), we are here to help and guide so I just want to clarify some VERY basic do’s and don’ts. They are up on our website under “product safety” and I’ve also put the link in our bio to take you straight there. PLEASE read and feel free to email us with questions - we will help where we can!
One thing we are frequently asked for, and something we will NEVER do is offer DIY tutorials on how to make any high risk baby products (dummy chains, teethers, pram toys etc). These are products that need to made with the upmost of care to the strictest of standards, not something that can be conveyed via a 3 minute video and not something I am willing to risk from a liability standpoint either.
Sorry to be a downer on a Friday afternoon, I’ve been sitting on this for a while and couldn’t keep my mouth shut any longer.
I'm running away with my family to our shed by the river (🍷), I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and thanks for reading! Gina xx
