Can I sterilize Sophie?

---

No, you cannot sterilize (UV, steam, etc.) Sophie items. Since these are made of natural rubber, exposure to heat may alter the product's integrity. If you've already sterilized Sophie, we recommend discontinuing use, for safety reasons.

There are fake Sophies out in the world! We do not know how or what they're made of. For your baby's safety, please only purchase your Sophie teether from us our our official stockists. You can never put a price on your baby's well-being.
