Product Information

Promotes sensory, motor and brain development – Open cup trains hand-eye coordination in your baby as they learn how to drink from a rim through judging liquid levels and moving arms accordingly to deliver the liquid into their mouths. Doidy Cup is a brilliant little cup, designed with its unique slant to teach children to drink from a rim and NOT a spout. If you find it difficult to grip things, perhaps due to pain or weakness, try looking for cutlery that has a larger handle, without making it too heavy.

BREAST FEEDING : A DOIDY can the used for babies from the age of 3 months or earlier for expressed milk. All systems are free standing on a table top and do not need to be lifted or tilted in any way by the user.These items incorporate a high rim in part or completely around their perimeter, to give a barrier that prevents food falling off the plate, and to give an edge to push food up against when loading a spoon or fork.

Important Note: It does NOT include a frail elderly person who is otherwise able-bodied or any person who is only temporarily disabled or incapacitated, such as with a broken limb. Infants find this movement perfectly natural, therefore it is so easy to wean them from the breast or bottle. If you are struggling with caring for yourself, which includes getting enough to eat and drink, consider asking for a health and social care needs assessment. These systems should only be obtained after assessment and recommendation by a speech and language therapist as they are deemed to have potential for choking or causing discomfort for an untrained user. Since the Care Act 2014 came into power in April 2015, anyone who appears to need care and support can request an assessment from their local council, irrespective of their income or savings.

Using cutlery is usually a two handed task - the food is secured by a fork in one hand, whilst the other hand uses a knife to cut the food. Being new to a caring role can be scary and is often something you need to learn quickly, so we've put together this comprehensive guide to help you out. If eating and drinking become slow and laborious, replace full meals with shorter, more frequent snacks. Babies as young as 6 months find the two handled cup easy to hold and to drink from as the natural action used is the same as in breast feeding.

If you’re one of those 55%, you’re not alone, and there are aids and equipment available to help you better manage your day-to-day life. The above benefits allow mothers to make the move from breast to open cup in one step rather than introducing a teat or spout. People who have very little hand and arm movement, or who have poor control over their muscles, may be very dependent on a carer for feeding.We recommend caution when warming some drinks (in particular milk) in a Doidy using a microwave as it can lead to patchy heating of the plastic.

Look for retailers who are members of the British Healthcare Trades Association (BHTA), which means that they adhere to the organisation’s code of practice.You may be asked to describe your difficulties over the phone so that social services can direct you to the most appropriate service or professional. The Doidy cup can be used from as young as 6 months and because of the slant works especially well with little ones use to breast feeding.
