Bottimals Featured in Montco Today: Supporting Babies with Bottle Refusal

We’re thrilled to share that Bottimals has been spotlighted in Montco Today in an article titled “Phoenixville Entrepreneur Invents Creative Solution for Baby Bottle Refusal.” The piece highlights founder Julianne Gardner and her innovative creation, the Bottle-Lovey®—a soft, cuddly companion designed to help babies transition smoothly from breastfeeding to bottle feeding. By incorporating a mother’s familiar scent, the Bottle-Lovey® provides comfort and reassurance during feeding, making bottle time calmer for both babies and parents.

The article explores Julianne’s personal journey as a mom and how her own experiences with bottle refusal inspired her to create a solution that truly supports families (for more related stories, check out the Bottimals Blog). It also showcases how Bottimals is gaining recognition among parents, caregivers, and pediatric professionals who understand the importance of making feeding a positive, soothing, and connected experience for infants.

Bottle refusal is a common challenge for many families, and tools like the Bottle-Lovey® help babies feel more comfortable while giving parents confidence during the transition to bottle feeding. By combining the calming power of scent with a soft, lovable companion, Bottimals addresses one of the most emotional aspects of early parenthood.

We’re grateful to Montco Today for sharing our story and helping raise awareness of how Bottimals supports families during everyday feeding challenges. This feature highlights our mission to make bottle feeding easier, more comforting, and more connected for babies and parents alike.
