review & giveaway :: Nourish

Posted on | November 30, 2009 | 19 Comments

it’s literally impossible for me to leave the house without forgetting at least one really important baby item. i don’t think there has been one time since Harper was born that i remembered everything necessary to bring a baby in public. the most annoying is that is almost always something really important. diapers? check. desitin? check. wipes? FARK.

my most common mess up is things for her to drink. luckily now that she is older, liquid doesn’t equal food, but i felt like a horrible parent more than a few times when i forgot one of the following lists of components to make my child a life sustaining bottle : bottle. formula to insert into the bottle. bottle cap so when i shake the bottle it doesn’t go squirting everywhere. water already in the bottle so i don’t have to find a questionable drinking fountain to fill bottle. ugh.

when Nourish sent me their Nourish Toddler, a BPA free, recyclable, sealed and prefilled sippy cup, i was stoked. it’s perfect to throw in the diaper bag and not have to feel guilty that i forgot something for the kiddo to drink. it’s 10 ounces of purified spring water that is ready to go with a sippy cup top and lid. i only wish i had known about Nourish sooner, because their Nourish Baby is 8 ounces with a nipple top and wide neck perfect for pouring formula into.

i could go on for a while about how great of a product this is, but the fact is, it’s simple. it does just what every mama needs, which is make things easier. my only complaint? i can’t buy these at any store near me (get a list of their retailers here) and buying it by the case online is really pricey with the shipping. they do have a retailer form to give to your favorite local store so you can request they carry it. i personally think starbucks should jump on this, but what do i know, i’m just a blogger.

and and since we all know the struggles i’ve had with the sippy cups and i know from your comments that you have had troubles, too, yes Harper REALLY drank her Nourish water (i know, it’s a miracle!).

    I suppose I’d like the shirt. Enter me!

    But, this does sound like a good product. Forgetting bottles, formula, sippy cups is my forte. It would be nice to have something like this in the car at all times.

    I’d looove the toddler t-shirt, since Indigo is closer to toddler-hood than I’d like to admit.

    I am so glad Harper loves her Nourish – getting customer feedback like this makes my day and reminds me why I developed Nourish and why I continue to work on product extensions to promote health and convenience for our most precious resources – our children, our time, our health and our world! Keep the feedback coming – I love it! And I am working hard to expand our retail locations but I would love your help – ask your local retailer to carry Nourish – I even posted a retailer request form on the website that you can just print out and give to your local store manager. You can also email me at lara@nourish-inc.com and tell me if you have a store you want me to contact – and I will get on it!
