Steadycup from Steadyco – the REAL Trainer Cup

You’re ready to wean baby off the bottle, but with so much controversy surrounding spouted cups and dental health, what options do you have? The Steadycup is a new open-topped cup with a wide steady base and small handle designed especially for children aged 1 to 4 and a half, which encourages healthy infant feeding habits.  Its open-top style reduces the frequency and length of time that liquids are in contact with the teeth, plus the tiny handle boosts dexterity in toddlers and the wide base design increases confidence by preventing spills.

Approved by the British Dental Health Foundation, the Steadycup was actually developed by Claire Clare, a nurse and mother of two, who wanted a mouth-friendly, toddler-proof cup for her own children to avoid the oral problems associated with prolonged use of bottles and spouted cups.  Having found nothing available, she designed the Steadycup herself and never looked back!

Children are always eager to progress from what is perceived as a ‘baby’ item to a ‘big boy’ or ‘big girl’ item. The Steadycup encourages this social development whilst avoiding the spills and breakages that can damage self-confidence when children try and progress too quickly onto adult cups and glasses.  It also avoids the dental problems that can be caused by prolonged use of traditional spouted cups.  

The Steadycup has also been lauded as helping in the fight against the increasingly poor nutrition seen in toddlers who over-use lidded, spouted cups. These ‘sippy-cups’ encourage perpetual grazing throughout the day which leaves children permanently full of liquid and, as a result, not hungry at meal times. This lack of dietary intake presents itself most commonly through iron deficiency – a growing problem in infants.
Overall the Steadycup encourages good feeding habits in children and encourages toddlers to learn skills that change them from big babies into little people!
