- Babies thrive on routine.
So remembering when you last started to feed your baby allows you to know when their next scheduled feed should be.

Please consult your child’s pediatrician for advice specific to your baby’s growing needs.

- If nursing, why is the last side you fed from important?
-
There are many different reasons why remembering the side last fed from can be important when nursing.
For example, some experts recommend starting with the breast you last finished feeding on,
to drain that breast first before moving onto the next side.
Other experts, recommend starting with the same breast every feed and feeding for a certain amount of time equally on each breast.
Our serenity star feeding diary allows you to remember the side you last fed from so you can know which breast to start your next feeding on, depending on your preferred feeding routine.
It also records the point in time your feeding session started so you can easily know how long your feeding session has lasted.

-
All aden + anais laundry care products are 2x-3x concentrated, which means they use less water and are more effective in stain-fighting.
- What makes aden + anais laundry care safe for my baby’s clothes?
-
Created with plant-based, stain fighting enzymes, all of the aden + anais laundry care products are naturally-derived and free of allergens, making them safe enough for your baby’s clothing yet powerful enough for the whole family’s laundry.
- What does aden + anais laundry care smell like?
-
The laundry detergent and fabric softener are infused with the fresh scent of Australian Sandalwood, the same great smell of our mum + bub skin care line. The chlorine-free bleach is unscented.
- Is aden + anais laundry care allergen-free?
-
aden + anais laundry care is free of the 8 most common allergens. However, it does contain a very small trace of fragrance, which can cause certain reactions in extremely sensitive skin cases.
- Who is The Laundress?
-
aden + anais collaborated with The Laundress New York to help create this naturally-derived laundry care line.
The Laundress New York are laundry care experts who developed an eco-friendly line of detergent, fabric care and home-cleaning products that take excellent care of families, beloved items and the environment.

- Can I use the laundry care line on my cloth diapers?
-
Yes, the products are formulated with a high concentration of cleaning power to effectively and safely clean cloth diapers. However, the following has been determined about the aden + anais laundry care line when washing cloth diapers:
-
aden + anais laundry detergent: Most baby detergents contain fabric softener which reduces the absorbency of items. Our laundry detergent contains natural softening properties but does NOT contain fabric softener, which means there are no issues with absorbency.
-
aden + anais chlorine-free bleach: This is safe and effective to use on cloth diapers.
-
aden + anais fabric softener: We would not recommend this product for cloth diaper use due to its tendency to reduce absorbency.
