Gentle on skin, gums and new teeth.
With Haakaa Silicone Dummies you don't have to worry about grimy bits getting stuck in the joints and cracks. Made from one piece of food-safe 100% silicone, this orthodontic dummy mimics the shape of mum's breast (making the transition between breast and pacifier smoother, as well as optimising healthy development of the oral cavity). No hard plastic pieces means no trapped moisture (which can lead to nasty rashes).
Good Stuff to Know:
- Mimics the shape of mother's breast
- Pacifier promotes natural breathing through the nose while baby sucks
- Soft and ergonomic - doesn't leave marks or rashes
- Meets US Food & Drug Administration ("FDA") standards
- No BPA, PVC or Phthalate
- No artificial colours
- Suitable from 3+ months (NOTE: this is a guideline only ... can be used earlier).
Available in: Blue & Pink
PRO TIP: pop it in the freezer to provide some relief for those poor teething gums.
Directions:
Clean after each use. Simply pop it in your steriliser or boiling water. It's particularly important to sterilise after illness!
------------------------------
Please check your dummy regularly for signs or wear or damage and replace immediately is showing such signs. Babes should be supervised at all times and pacifiers should only be used for their intended purpose.
The Haka is a traditional ancestral war dance of the Māori people in New Zealand with a very special meaning 'Be a strong fighter, find strength by choosing to smile through whatever challenges life brings'. This is the message we have instilled in our Courtney.
Haakaa is a 100% family owned and New Zealand run company. The message behind our brand is a strong and passionate one and it is what drives us everyday to do what we do. Haakaa was developed through our struggle to find non-toxic and safe products for my little sister Courtney. Courtney is special needs being born with Autism among other disabilites. When protecting her health and preserving the environment for her future became our top priority, haakaa was born. Over the years, we found it extremely difficult to find green products suitable for infants and children. With most Eco baby brands only carrying a limited range and shipping to New Zealand was difficult and expensive. That was when we realised we could develop a range that is not only convenient and versatile, but also safe for more parents and their babies.
Today haakaa has an exciting range all made using environmentally friendly and safe raw materials such as stainless steel, glass, bamboo, and natural rubber. All haakaa products are designed and tested in New Zealand, Manufactured in selected advanced international factories under strict quality controls and successfully tested against the worlds highest safety standards (such as European EN14350 and US FDA).
We feel so blessed to be able to get our message out to other families. By creating safe yet stylish products we are not only protecting our precious children from harmful chemicals and toxins, we are ensuring their future and our planets future.
We truly believe that everything happens for a reason. Though life with a special needs child is challenging and exhausting at times, this amazing brand and our journey would not have begun without her. The lessons and experiences Courtney teaches us everyday is something we are all very grateful for and her smile and fighting spirit is the driving force behind each and every one of us.

All orders received after 9:00 AM are dispatched the next day (some exceptions may apply). Orders are dispatched Monday through Friday (excluding public holidays).

Packaging
Being an eco-friendly company, we do our best to keep this philosophy in mind through all of our business practices. This includes our shipping materials. Please note that, when at all possible, parcels are shipped using recycled boxes and packaging.

RETURN POLICY
At Naked Baby Eco Boutique, we don’t actually have a return policy for purchases made at our boutique. We handle returns on a case-by-case basis with the ultimate objective of satisfying the customer. We stand behind our goods and services and want our customers to be satisfied with them. It is our goal to do our best to take care of customers; to deal with them fairly and reasonably. In return, we hope that our customers are fair and reasonable with us, too.
In doing this, we hope to build trust with our customers and create a long-term relationship of mutual respect. Standing behind what we sell is a big part of that. We like to think that many customers choose to shop with us because they know that if their purchase isn’t right, we will work to fix it for them.
Should you wish to initiate a return, please contact: info@nakedbaby.co.nz.
Should a return be deemed the best remedy, if you paid by credit card, we will credit your account within 14 days. If you paid by direct banking, we will get in touch for your banking details and credit your account. If you paid by Gift Voucher, a replacement voucher will be issued to you.
Unfortunately, shipping charges cannot be refunded to you (and return shipping charges are your responsibility). Additionally, in general, our shipping fees cost more than what we charge our customers. Should this be the case on a return, the difference between the cost of the shipping and what the customer paid for shipping will be deducted from the total return amount.
