Yummikeys Launches Teething Necklace

Yummikeys launches stainless steel teething necklace – The ‘naturally cool’ feeding accessory for mother and baby

Mums – do you find that baby loves to do everything but feed when it’s time latch on? Play with their hands, pull your hair, stare at the ceiling? Not just us then.

Yummikeys founder and mother of three, Elspeth Fawcett, has launched a solution (an ethical one at that) to our easily-distracted-baby problems – the Yummikeys Teething Necklace. Designed in Scotland, the Teething Necklace is lovingly created with mummy and baby in mind.

Firstly, it keeps baby occupied when feeding. The double interlocking loops are irresistibly shiny as they hang free at the end of a brightly coloured cotton cord. Perfect for pulling, grabbing and best of all, chewing (in between milk drinking of course!)

Made of stainless steel and therefore non-toxic, not only is the necklace totally safe for baby to put in their mouth, but its naturally cooling and soothing on teething gums. Finally, with three silver beads on the inner loop and a cord colour of your choice, this nifty little piece of equipment also becomes a beautiful keepsake that you wont just want to wear at mealtimes.

Elspeth designed the Teething Necklace with her own children in mind: “I wanted to make something that was not only engaging for little fingers, but also a piece that made me as their mother, feel good too. Feeding is a time when we build some of the strongest connections with our little ones, so having the Teething Necklace means less time wasted trying to get them to eat and more time just enjoying the closeness. Important to me too was that mums didn’t just feel that this was another tool to help baby, but also something that gives them a sense of personal enjoyment and style.” Made from the same material as cutlery, Yummikeys Teething Necklaces are chemical free and toxin free; no lead, BPA or phthalates.

Stainless steel does not leach any chemicals, nor is it porous, so it won’t hold smells; they are also totally hygienic and naturally bacteria resistant – one less thing to worry about! Finally – and importantly in the bid to reduce single-use materials such as plastic – Yummikeys products are 100% recyclable, so if you don’t decide to keep them after baby is done, you know you can get rid of them responsibly.

Available at £18.99 as standard or £26.99 if you would like it engraved, up to 30 characters can be added to your necklace to allow you to wear and enjoy this sweet reminder long after baby can feed themselves.

Here at Yummikeys, we think it’s the perfect gift for a new mum, to give at a baby shower or just to remind yourself you’re important too.

Yummikeys – loved by babies…and mums...everywhere.
