How It Works
1. Order your 3-in-1 Starter Kit.
2. Keep the shield + try all 3 nipples to see which one your baby loves.
3. Set up automatic nipple replacements—fresh, safe, and on time, without the stress.
Instructions for Use
- Clean before first use: Separate all parts. Boil, dishwash or steam nipples; shields can be hand washed or placed in the top rack of the dishwasher. Let everything cool fully before assembling.
- Align the nipple with the channels on the shield (non- sucking side) to insert the nipple into the shield.
- Turn the cap clockwise (righty tighty) to secure the pacifier in place.
Daily cleaning is recommended for pacifiers.

“10/10 this is my new favorite paci! The craftsmanship, the attention to detail in design, safety, sanitation is unmatched! Just had our 4th baby and brought our paci with us to the hospital. We did give her the one the hospital provides, but as soon as we have her the soothe beginnings pack, she took to it so easily. I have never had any of my other kids take so easily and be soothed so we'll. Would definitely recommend trying it out! You're going to love it!!
”
“This is a great kit for babies who can be picky about pacifiers! I love how luxurious it feels. First baby out of 4 that will take a pacifier, partially because of this kit!
”
“Diya absolutely loves this paci and it really helps her self soothe for naps and sleep.
”
“This was the only pacifier that truly checked all the boxes—for both material safety and eco-conscious design. It gave us peace of mind and gave her the comfort she needed.
