WubbaNubs are designed and recommended for babies ages 0-6 months that are not teething.  Regardless of your child's age, WubbaNub pacifiers are not recommended for use once your child has begun teething.

All WubbaNubs are tested to, and meet or exceed, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's mandatory safety standard for pacifiers (16 CFR 1511) and federal requirements for children's toys (ASTM F963). The CPSC standard for pacifiers applies to all pacifiers.  Our products have been tested extensively to ensure they meet federal safety requirements.

Remember to always inspect your WubbaNub pacifier before each use and discard it immediately if the nipple is enlarged or if there are any signs of cracks, tears, or excessive wear.

WubbaNub pacifiers can be used under observed napping and awake sucking. We're advocates for safe sleep as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Consumer Product Safety Commission. For extended overnight sleep, use a pacifier without the plush, such as our WubbaNub branded pacifier.   For more on safe sleep habits, visit our safety page.

Original Non-Detachable Pacifiers

The original one-piece design is what makes WubbaNub unique! The pacifier is permanently attached to the plush.  We offer a detachable design where the pacifier can be replaced.

Detachable Pacifiers

Yes! You can switch out the pacifier on the WubbaNub detachable design.  Our detachable design's pacifier attachment can accommodate our replacement pacifier or our teether as well as most ring pacifier/pacifier designs.

We believe our products will live up to your highest expectations. In the event of a damaged or defective WubbNub product, we may, at our discretion, issue a replacement. This policy does not cover ordinary wear and tear or damage caused by improper use and care or accidents, and is limited to a one-time replacement per customer.

Pacifier Nipple: Wash the pacifier nipple before initial use: Wash the nipple portion in warm water using a mild liquid soap. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Remove it from heat and pour the boiled water into a mug. Then place the nipple portion of the WubbaNub into the water for 2 - 4 minutes to sterilize. Allow it to cool and squeeze the nipple to release the excess water inside. Now it's ready to use!

Plush: WubbaNubs are made lovingly by hand, so hand washing is the best method to preserve quality. It is also machine washable – place the WubbaNub in mesh laundry bag, wash on gentle cycle and allow to air dry. Make sure to wash the nipple before use (see above)
