INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the BébéSounds®
NasalClear™ Nasal Aspirator. With this aspirator
you can safely and quickly clear your baby’s nasal
congestion and help her breathe more easily. This
aspirator is battery operated so it provides you with
suction that is stronger than that of a traditional
manual aspirator. But don’t worry, the suction is still
gentle enough to use safely and comfortably on
your baby.
Stuffy noses are a common problem with babies
and toddlers. Babies often have stuffy noses
because their nasal passages are so small and
because their immune system is not yet fully
developed. A stuffy nose may cause diffi culty in
breathing and discomfort especially since it takes
some time for babies to learn to breathe through
their mouths. Stuffy noses may also lead to more
serious problems, therefore, it is very important to
keep the nasal passages clear.
Yet clearing their congestion can often be a challenge
for parents. Using a traditional manual aspirator may
be uncomfortable for the child making it very diffi cult to use. In addition, as it may not work very well,
it will take longer to clean the passages. The BébéSounds
to safely clear your child’s nasal passages
®
NasalClear™ Nasal Aspirator will allow you
