MilkBank delivers the freshest breast milk possible, and fresh breast milk is the most nutritious for your baby.

Clinical tests show that any level of oxygen exposure begins to spoil breast milk. For best nutrition, freshly pumped breast milk should be fed immediately or stored in MilkBank’s vacuum-sealed storage bottles for later feeding.

Traditional storage methods, such as bags and bottles, trap harmful oxygen when sealed. This exposure to oxygen not only impacts the nutritional value, but can also distort the flavor, causing babies to reject stored breast milk.

...the Hatley story...
Growing up in the small town of Hatley, the Oldland boys loved running naked through the woods. But the day came when Chris, Nick and Jeremy had to leave Hatley and enter the real world where public nudity just wasn't understood. To be accepted the boys combined their love for nature with comfortable clothing, and the Hatley line was born!
Our mission is to help "get clothes to nature" - to get any closer you'd have to be naked!

Bio-Oil is a specialistskincare product that helpsimprove the appearance ofscars, stretch marks anduneven skin tone. Its advancedformulation, which contains thebreakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil™, also makesit highly effective for numerousother skin concerns, includingaging skin and dehydrated skin

Specially Formulated With PurCellin Oil
Bio-Oil includes the breakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil, a recreation of the preen gland oil of ducks. During preening, a duck secretes oil from its preen gland and distributes it over its entire plumage in the familiar twisted-neck action that one often associates with ducks. This oil creates a thin, non-greasy layer on the surface of the feathers without which water would not pearl off and the bird would struggle to swim. This ingredient acts as a delivery system for Bio-Oil's other ingredients, improving spreadability and allowing for targeted absorption into the skin.

Advanced thermostatic control and a thermal fuse allows you to heat bottles, disposable bags and jars without boiling or over heating. Heating chart displayed with product for safe, easy reference.

Whether a parent is heating breastmilk, formula, or pureed peas; using Avent bottles, other brands, or baby food jars; the Avent Express Baby Food and Bottle Warmer gently and evenly heats baby’s meal. The included plastic basket is used inside the warmer to keep baby food jars and Avent bottles upright. It can be removed when heating the Avent Magic cup and other makes of bottles. Water is added to just above the level of the milk in the bottle (or below the top of baby food jar). Plug the unit into an electrical outlet and click the switch on. A neon light will illuminate.
