You want your kids to grow, play and learn in clean, safe spaces – so it makes sense to be informed about the products used in them. Below you’ll find the questions our customers most often ask us, but if you have any further questions please drop us a line at hello@nimblebabies.com.

General Faqs

Where are your products made?

All our products are proudly made in the UK!

Why is it safe for babies?

We develop all our formulas in-house to know what goes into our cleaning products and make sure it's gentle next to the skin. We never add any allergens, enzymes, dyes, bleach, or skin-irritating ingredients to be as mild as water but effective as the traditional harsh chemicals.

Our products are made from plant-based derived ingredients and are biodegradable.

Are your products vegan?

Yes they are! All our products are certified Vegan with the Vegan Society, they are also cruelty-free and 100% biodegradable.

Where else can I buy your products?

Our Nimble products are available in more than 500 Tesco stores, and online on Ocado, Amazon and some baby specialists like Natural Baby Shower.

Milk Buster

What is Nimble Milk Buster made of?

It is made of the safest cleaning ingredients derived from sugar, amino acids, and coconuts. Its pH is balanced to be very close to that of water and it also has plant-derived ingredients to remove water hardness. 

Is it safe to use?

Yes, it’s been clinically tested and has been proven to be as mild as water.

How long does a bottle last?

Each bottle has 400 sprays of product, and you only need 2 sprays a go! Great value for money, isn’t it?

Is it different from regular washing-up liquids?

It is sulfate-free just like your baby shampoo or bath liquid and is specially developed to detach milk fat and proteins, unlike regular washing-up liquids that are developed for food grease. It also contains a special odour-absorbing ingredient that gets rid of milk odour, not just masking it with fragrances. With these ingredients, Milk Buster can be used instead of washing up liquid!

Can I wash the bottles with water alone?

If only you could - then we’d recommend it! But unfortunately, water alone isn’t enough to clean your baby bottles. You need a cleaning product like Nimble Milk Buster to detach the milk fat & proteins from the plastic so the bottles will be free from unwanted milk residues.  

Is sterilising not enough?

We’re afraid to say that sterilising alone isn’t enough to clean your baby bottles. Sterilising only kills the bugs and germs - they can grow back fast when milk residues are still around. You will need a cleaning product like Nimble Milk Buster to get rid of the bacteria-causing milk residues.

How do you wash baby bottles

It is best to wash the bottles straight after your baby finishes drinking from it. But we know this isn’t always possible! Simply use Nimble Milk Buster to get rid of milk residues. Just add a little warm water into the bottle, spray Nimble Milk Buster twice, brush and rinse thoroughly.  

Will it work on breast milk and formula milk?

Yes, Nimble Milk Buster works on all types of milk. You can also use it on other things, like your baby’s dishes, or even silicone breast pumps!

Why does Milk Buster have a strange smell?

Unlike your regular washing-up liquids smothered with fragrances, Nimble Milk Buster does not contain any chemical fragrances. So what you smell is the natural aroma of its plant-based cleaning ingredients.

Sticky Stopper

What is Nimble Sticky Stopper made of?

It is powered by plant-based cleaning ingredients derived from coconuts, corn, and a natural disinfectant called lactic acid.

What is lactic acid?

It is a natural disinfectant derived from fermenting sugar. It kills 99.9% of bacteria without having to use nasty chemicals like bleach.

Is Sticky Stopper suitable for all surfaces?

You can use Sticky Stopper on most hard surfaces, for example granite, plastic, glass, MDF, and wood. However for wood that has a varnish applied, we recommend testing in an inconspicuous area first. For soft surfaces on items to big to throw in the wash, simply spray Sticky Stopper, and then pat dry with a dry cloth or kitchen towel (no need to rinse).

How is it different to other surface cleaners?

Glad you asked! Sticky Stopper can clean and disinfect at the same time using plant-derived ingredients. Half of surface cleaners are actually not antibacterial but they make you think they are! And the other half are antibacterial but use harsh chemicals like bleach, triclosan, or what they call BIT (benzisothiazolinone) or MIT (bethylisothiazolinone). Sticky Stopper is proven to kill 99.99% of bacteria including E. coli and some superbugs like MRSA. This is in accordance with European Standard EN127

Can I use it to clean and disinfect my baby's dummies?

Definitely! But to be extra sure that there are no residues left, we recommend that you rinse it off with clean running water before handing it back to your little one.

Laundry Lover

What is Nimble Laundry Lover made of?

It’s powered by plant-based ingredients such as coconuts and
vegetables. It is free from enzymes, dyes, and opacifiers (aka clouding agents)
that could leave skin-irritating residues on fabrics.

How is Nimble Laundry Lover different from other laundry products?

Our Laundry Lover is proven to show that it removes stains as good as the leading brand, but it’s as gentle as eco brands for the skin and fabrics. Laundry Lover has been designed for sensitive skin as it is free from enzymes, optical brighteners and dyes. We also use an allergen-free fragrance making it extra gentle. You basically get the best of both worlds!

How long will a bottle last?

The 1 litre bottle lasts up to 45 washes. Most of our customers use it up in about 4 weeks.

Our new 5 litre bottle lasts up to 225 washes!

How much liquid do I put in one wash?

We recommend that you follow this dosage guide: for small loads (2-3kg) use 20ml, for normal loads (4-5kg), use 40ml, and for stuffed loads (6-8kg), use 60ml. You can put it either in the drum or the drawer of your washing machine. You can check out the more detailed instructions below to get the best results.

Can I still use my favourite fabric softener together with Laundry Lover?

Yes of course, the only thing to watch out for is to be sure that the fabric softener is also suitable for sensitive skin if you or your child are prone to skin irritation. For best results, we recommend using our Cuddle Lover Fabric Softener.

Is Laundry Lover suitable for wool washing?

Yes it is! But please remember to use a low temperature (no higher than 30 degrees) and the gentlest setting (usually the hand wash setting) of your washing machine. Also,if you’re only washing a few items, we would recommend reducing the dosage of Laundry Lover to 20ml.

Is Laundry Lover suitable for older kids and adults?

Yes of course. Laundry Lover is suitable for any age group and for any skin type. Many of our customers use Laundry Lover for their own clothes, rather than for children, as it is excellent for people who suffer with sensitive skin.

Cuddle Lover

What is Nimble Cuddle Lover made of?

It is powered by plant-based ingredients derived from rapeseed.

How is Nimble Cuddle Lover different from other fabric softeners?

So happy you asked! We avoid using ingredients derived from animal fats or silicones that many leading fabric softeners use to soften the cloth, instead we harnessed the natural power of rapeseed to get the job done. We also use an allergen-free fragrance, making it extra kind to sensitive skin.

How long will a bottle last?

One bottle lasts up to 70 washes.

How much liquid do I put in one wash?

We recommend that you use 20ml for one normal load, which is between 4-5kg. For small loads (2-3kg), use 10ml, and for stuffed loads (6-8kg), use 40ml. Simply pour into the appropriate drawer of your washing machine.

Can I still use my favourite laundry detergent with Nimble Cuddle Lover?

Yes of course! The only thing to watch out for is to be sure that the laundry detergent is also suitable for sensitive skin if you or your child are prone to skin irritation. Have a look at our Laundry Lover if you are trying to find a suitable one.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus sed eros congue, eleifend ipsum vitae, cursus massa. Vivamus imperdiet luctus lorem.

Is this hand sanitiser a gel or spray?

It is a spray! We specifically chose to do a spray to make it apply it easily on tiny hands, Plus it doesn't dry hands or leave a sticky feeling like gels can. Just a few sprays, rub, and off you go!

Is there a fragrance?

Yes, there is one. We developed this allergen-free perfume to be subtle and close to our laundry lover fragrance (think baby powder!)

Do you have multiple sizes?

At the moment, we sell 60ml bottles so that it's easy to take on the go for daily adventures. But keep your eyes peeled in the future!
