When it comes to feeding babies, at Dr. Brown’s Medical we know you want to provide neuroprotective feeding experiences. To do that, you need quality, cost-effective feeding products and practices. Traditional feeding practices with inefficient bottles and nipples result in poor feeding outcomes for infants, leaving you feeling frustrated.
We believe all babies deserve positive feeding experiences for life.
As a team of feeding specialists, we get it. We provide 100% of the Top Children’s Hospitals with effective feeding solutions. Now you too can stop using substandard products and practices, and instead offer evidence-based, consistent feeding solutions to promote standard-of-care practices for the best possible outcomes, for all babies in your care.

Innara HealthTM (formerly KCBioMedix®) is an innovative leader in neurodevelopmental care. The company’s flagship product, the FDA-approved NTrainer System®, is the first and only technology that assesses and reinforces non-nutritive suck (NNS) in newborns and infants born prematurely in critical care settings. Developed from 20 years of extensive research, the NTrainer System is used by many top-tier children’s hospitals and academic medical centers to improve the quality of care for babies born preterm.
The NTrainer System uses groundbreaking technology to accurately assess and therapeutically promote NNS – a vital skill linked to faster transitions to oral feeds, more rapid weight gain, shortened hospital stays and reduced hospitals costs. It is revolutionizing NICU and CTICU feeding for premature infants.
Neonatal therapists use the NTrainer System as both predictive and therapeutic technology during gavage feeding, and before breast or bottle feeding. It offers therapists a data-driven method to both measure and reinforce the preterm infant’s NNS feeding skills.
Assessment: The NTrainer System provides standardized, objective, quantitative results of the infant’s NNS organization. On-screen data and printed reports empower neonatal therapists to make more informed decisions using reliable data.
Therapy: The NTrainer System provides a clinically proven ororhythmic stimulation therapy to reinforce NNS. Studies prove this type of treatment effectively improves NNS development and oral feeding success in preterm infants who are at risk for oromotor dysfunction.
To learn more about how the NTrainer System improves health outcomes through innovation for the world’s most vulnerable population – premature infants – visit us at the NANT conference or online at Innarahealth.com.
Dandle•LION MedicalTM is growing like a weed and sprouting fabulous new neurodevelopmental and organic products for preemies and term babies! We are a young and agile company that works with NICU professionals to develop the next generation of products that support optimal infant development.
The new ROO2 and Dandle WRAP Stretch, based on the same principles in our original Dandle ROO and Dandle WRAP, are made from a versatile sports performance fabric (with an adorable DandleLION print) that mimics the womb with its 3 way stretch. Babies can move and wiggle and then return to a flexed and midline position. The Dandle WRAP Stretch also has strategically placed micro-fasteners that help to calm, soothe and contain even the fussiest, most agitated babies. And what about gel pillows? We have 5 sizes that are soft, squishy and won’t dry out or ever get moldy!
Dandle•LION sources only the finest product ingredients or components that will exceed parental and staff expectations. Our line of organic skin care products – Playful Wash for the first bath, Skin to Skin Massage Oil for the first touch, Nurturing Balm to prevent or soothe a first diaper rash, and Soothing Cream for any rashes or dry skin – are made from certified organic ingredients that are far beyond the standards required in the U.S. Parents and staff can feel confident that fragile newborn skin is being touched by the best! A quote from a recent children’s hospital nurse who just switched to our Nurturing Balm:
“This Butt Balm has the most wonderful consistency that goes on so smooth. It doesn’t clump so you aren’t irritating the skin when you wipe. And this might sound silly, but it is the best smelling cream I have ever put on a diaper rash.”
We hope you have taken advantage of our FREE webinars (with a free CE)! We have dozens of recorded webinars and a new one every other month, many done by or appropriate for therapists. You can attend live or listen to a recording by going to www.dandlelion-webinars.com.
