Milton Sterilisers
Milton has been going strong for over 65 years, many of Grandparents and parents will remember using Milton to help sterilise when they had small babies. When I had Roo I can remember the midwives showing me how to set up the cold water steriliser using Milton sterilising tablets. The ease of use and the years of trust gained from using Milton is why many parents will recommend it to Mums to be and new parents.
This Christmas why not treat that mum-to-be in your life to one of three different Milton sterilising products…
