Solving the Lost Pacifier: A Guide to the Best Pacifier Holders & Clips

Listening to a crying baby is tough. But the frustration of frantically searching for the one thing that can comfort them—their pacifier—is even tougher. This is why a high-quality pacifier clip or holder isn't a luxury; it's an essential tool for a parent's peace of mind.

But with different types on the market, which should you choose?

Pacifier Clips vs. Plush Holders: What's the Difference and Which Should I Choose?

If you have the budget, our suggestion is to have one of each, as they serve different purposes.

  • Pacifier Clips are perfect for daytime, supervised use. They attach securely to your baby's clothes, car seat, or stroller, keeping the pacifier clean and within reach. Safety is critical: for safety, a pacifier clip's ribbon or tether should never be longer than 7-8 inches to avoid any risk of it wrapping around a baby's neck.

  • Plush Pacifier Holders are the ideal choice for unsupervised time, like in the crib during naps or at night. The soft, plush toy is safe, easy for a baby to find and hold on their own, and provides extra comfort.

The Best Pacifier Holders and Clips for Modern Parents

Instead of a simple list, we've broken down our top picks by what makes them the best in their category.

1. Best for Universal Compatibility: The Queebi Pacibuddy

This is, without a doubt, our top pick for a plush pacifier holder. The Queebi Pacibuddy was specifically designed to solve the biggest problem with other holders: compatibility.

  • The Universal Silicone Ring: Queebi's genius is its patented silicone ring that securely attaches to the widest possible variety of name-brand pacifiers, including those with button knobs (like MAM™ or NUK™) and those with tab handles (like Soothie™). This means parents can use the pacifier their baby already loves.

  • Developmental & Comforting: The soft, plush animal character is easy for little hands to find and grasp, helping babies learn to self-soothe. It's a comforting friend and a developmental toy in one.

  • Safe & Easy to Clean: All Pacibuddy characters are machine washable and made from BPA and Phthalate-free materials, ensuring they are safe for your little one.

2. Best for Teething Relief: The Silicone Beaded Clip

Screen Shot 2019-08-15 at 2.41.25 PM.png

For babies who are teething, a multi-functional clip is a lifesaver.

  • What to look for: A clip where the "chain" is made from soft, chewable, 100% food-grade silicone beads. These beads come in various shapes and textures, providing satisfying relief for sore gums. It's a pacifier clip and a teether in one convenient package. Ensure it has a secure, rust-free plastic clasp.

3. Best for Minimalist Style: The Braided Fabric Clip

For parents who prefer a more understated aesthetic, a simple fabric clip is a perfect choice.

  • What to look for: Look for clips made from high-quality, durable materials like braided nylon or organic cotton. They are lightweight, easy to wash, and come in a wide variety of modern, stylish colors to complement any outfit without being distracting.

4. Best for All-in-One Functionality: The 3-in-1 Holder

This is the ultimate multi-tasker.

  • What to look for: A versatile clip with an interchangeable loop that can hold not only a pacifier, but also a teething ring or a small toy. This single accessory can adapt to your baby's needs throughout the day, keeping all their essential items close and off the floor.

By choosing the right tool for the job, you can say goodbye to the constant game of "find the pacifier" and make your life just a little bit easier.

You must know this 2 consider sustainable baby products brand that BabyLux carries

Sustainable packaging is a relatively new addition to the environmental considerations for packaging. But now many brands have offered it. You must know this 2 sustainable baby brand that we carry.

What packaging is considered sustainable?

Sustainable packaging refers to the sourcing, development, and use of packaging solutions that have minimal environmental impact and footprint. Simply put, sustainable packaging is earth-friendly and doesn't contribute to the further depletion of natural resources.

Choosing products in sustainable packaging is one way to avoid harmful chemicals and cut back on the amount of plastic that ends up in landfills. The materials below are great options when choosing sustainable packaging! 

  • Aluminum is able to be completely recycled without any loss in quality at a fraction of the initial production costs and energy requirements of plastic.

  • Bamboo is the fastest growing plant in the world, making it the number one renewable resource Bamboo actually grows faster when it is cut down!

  • Compostable/biodegradable paperboard is made from recycled paper pulp. When manufactured and disposed of properly, it is largely considered a renewable resource.

  • Glass and metal are 100% recyclable. This means that they can be infinitely recycled into new packaging without loss of quality. It is also very easy to repurpose a glass or metal container!

  • Recycled plastic is another option. Many companies repurpose plastic into new packaging. While this is not ideal (in terms of a renewable resource), it is better than other alternatives.

  • Silicone is an eco-friendly material derived from sand. The process to manufacture silicone is much less wasteful than the process to manufacture plastic. It can be recycled -in the right facilities- and is a safe non-toxic alternative to plastic.

Getting familiar with BabyLux carried brands that consider sustainable

Loulou Lollipop

A brands to consider investing in, they product mainly are made from silicone. Why silicone? Silicone rubber does not react with food or beverages, or produce any hazardous fumes. 

Silicone is a polymer mostly made from silica (sand) oxygen. It can withstand heating and freezing without leaching or off-gassing hazardous chemicals – unlike plastics utensils, which contaminate food in these environments.

Food grade silicone is durable, soft like rubber, unbreakable, and often referred to as ‘soft glass’ due to its resilience, non-porous surface, and sustainability. It is resistant to odor and stains, hypoallergenic, and because of its smooth surface, very easy to clean. For these many reasons, food-grade silicone is the perfect material for eco-friendly and non-toxic baby products.

While for soft goods they using TENCEL™ Lyocell and Modal fibers that are produced from wood pulp from sustainably managed sources, a renewable resource. Tencel has a much lower CO2 footprint than many other fabrics.

Dena

Dëna toys are made of platinum-based silicone, a soft, resistant material, BPA free and 100% safe. This material is also used to make dummies, baby bottles and teethers of the highest quality. Silica is the raw material used for manufacturing silicone and is very abundant in beach sand and other similar rocks. Silica is also, for example, the main component of glass.

Platinum-based silicone uses a noble metal, platinum, as a catalyst, which gives it a higher quality. This makes it the ideal material in the manufacture of moulds and products suitable for contact with food.

Likewise, they repel water and germs, so, in addition to facilitating their cleaning, Dëna toys guarantee maximum hygiene and food safety.

3 Things you must know before buying Loulou silicone bibs

Everyone knows that babies need bibs. But it probably wasn’t until you actually reached of parenthood that you realized just how necessary bibs are. When it comes to BLW, you need keeping food off your baby or toddler’s adorable outfit, any bib is better than nothing. But options that are easy to wash and keep food from ending up in her lap or on her arms are your best bet.

Are Loulou LOLLIPOP silicone bibs worth it?

A few months ago, I introduced solid foods to my daughter. I first fed him purées with a spoon, but after she started grabbing the bowl and reaching out for any food in sight, I incorporated baby-led feeding into the mix, giving her pieces of soft vegetables that she could pick up and feed herself. Thanks to countless videos on the social media, I knew that when babies feed themselves, food flies everywhere. A good bib—with a pocket to catch at least some of what didn't make it into my daughter’s mouth.

Silicone bibs are soft, flexible and waterproof. They can also be wiped clean after mealtime. Most have a lip or pocket at the bottom to catch food that your little one drops so it doesn’t end up on her lap.

I’ve used Loulou LOLLIPOP for 2 months now, I personally love the printed one better than the regular one. I feel that the printed bibs have a bigger and wider pocket, I can catch a lot of food that didn’t make it into my daughter’s mouth. So, for me it is totally worth it!

How many silicone bibs do you actually need to own?

You could probably get by with just one, but it’s never a bad idea to have an extra bib or two around for backup. For newborns who only have some occasional drool or spit up, five bibs may be enough to last the week. For babies who really crank out the drool or spit up, though, you might go through five bibs a day.

So how many bibs do you actually need to own for those messy little eaters? The answer depends on your own family's needs. I have around 5 silicone bibs.

Why Loulou LOLLIPOP silicone bibs?

If your older baby or toddler always tears off bibs with velcro closures, try this. The button closure is more likely to stay put, plus the adjustable buttons are designed to fit kids up to age 3. And if you’re not a fan of the typical baby colors, you’ll be psyched to hear that these bibs come in soothing earth tones like beige, olive and marble. They also have the printed one, which I very like.

A molded, catch-all pouch and easy, wipe-down surface makes for quick cleaning. With reinforced buttonholes for a durable, adjustable fit, this handy bib is available in an array of modern colors and fresh designs to complement baby’s wardrobe.

A Parent's Guide to Choosing the Cutest (and Safest) Pacifier Clip

Editor's Note:

This article was originally a review of a specific product from 2021. To provide more timeless and valuable advice, it has been updated to be a comprehensive guide on the features to look for when choosing a stylish and safe pacifier clip for your baby.

 

If you’re a parent, and you’re not yet using pacifier clips, now is the time! Seriously. It's time to say goodbye to the frantic search for a lost pacifier and the constant bending down to pick it up off the floor every five seconds. A good pacifier clip is one of the simplest and most effective hacks to make your life as a parent easier.

But beyond pure function, modern pacifier clips have become a stylish accessory in their own right. So how do you choose one that is cute, safe, and built to last?

What to Look for in the Perfect Pacifier Clip

1. Safety is Non-Negotiable

This is the most important factor. Since this accessory will be close to your baby, it must meet the highest safety standards.

  • Safe Materials: Look for clips made with 100% food-grade silicone beads and natural, splinter-free wood. They must be explicitly free from harmful chemicals like BPA, PVC, and Phthalates.

  • Rust-Free Design: Some of the most innovative designs are now free of metal parts and screws. This is a brilliant feature because it means there is zero potential for rust, making the clip more durable and safer for your baby.

2. Durable and Easy to Clean

A pacifier clip will inevitably end up in your baby's mouth. It needs to be easy to clean.

  • Clips made entirely of silicone and plastic can often be washed with warm, soapy water. Some can even be sterilized (always check the manufacturer's instructions). A metal-free design ensures there's no risk of rust during washing.

3. Style and Personality

The best clips are both functional and fashionable! Today's designs go far beyond a simple strap.

  • Look for clips with beautiful, modern color palettes that can complement your baby's outfits.

  • Many clips feature charming characters (like llamas, sloths, or rainbows) or stylish combinations of silicone and wood beads, turning a practical item into a cute accessory.

4. A Secure Clasp

The clip itself should be strong enough to attach securely to your baby's clothes, carrier, or blanket without falling off, but not so strong that it damages the fabric. A high-quality plastic clasp is often the best and safest choice.

A great pacifier clip is an essential tool that saves your sanity while adding a touch of personal style to your baby's look. By focusing on these key features, you can be confident you're choosing one that is safe, durable, and adorable.

A Parent's Guide to Safe & Stylish Teethers: Why Silicone is Best

Editor's Note:

Please be aware that BabyLux no longer distributes Loulou LOLLIPOP products. We have updated this article to serve as a comprehensive guide on selecting safe, effective, and stylish teething accessories for your baby.

 

Modern baby goods are being redefined by a new standard: the pursuit of better, cuter, and safer products for every newborn adventure. When it comes to teething, this means a new generation of teethers and pacifier clips that are as stylish and fun as they are safe and soothing.

Gone are the days of boring teething rings. The industry has evolved, with parent-led innovation creating adorable, "chewable" designs that look as good as they feel on a baby's sore gums. The first of their kind were strong, durable, and delightful, shaped like tasty treats such as donuts and ice cream cones, proving that teething accessories could be both effective and incredibly cute.

What Makes a Teether 100% Safe for Your Baby?

When your little one is putting something in their mouth, safety is the number one priority. A truly safe teether is one that is completely free from nasty chemicals. Here is what you should always check for on the product label:

  • 100% Food Grade Silicone: This is the gold standard for teething products. It is non-toxic, durable, and soft on gums.

  • Free from Harmful Chemicals: Ensure the product is explicitly listed as BPA-free, Phthalate-free, Lead-free, Cadmium-free, and PVC-FREE.

  • Original, Safe Designs: Look for products from reputable brands that focus on creating safe, modern designs for babies.

A great tip for extra relief is that many silicone teethers can be chilled in the refrigerator (never the freezer!) to provide cool comfort for teething pain.

How to Properly Clean Silicone Teethers and Pacifier Clips

Silicone is a naturally antimicrobial material, which makes cleaning simple and effective. However, there are important rules to follow to ensure the product's integrity, especially for items with clips or multiple parts.

  • DO wash thoroughly. Before the first use and after each subsequent use, wash with warm, soapy water. This is sufficient to clean the teether or clip.

  • DO NOT sterilize or boil your pacifier clip. The high heat can damage the metal or plastic clip mechanism, making it unsafe.

  • DO NOT microwave your clip for the same reason; it can compromise the clip's components.

The Must-Have Accessory: The Pacifier Clip

A good pacifier clip is one of the most useful accessories for parents on the go. These clips attach securely to clothes, blankets, strollers, or car seats to hold pacifiers, teething rings, or small toys. They are perfect for keeping your baby's favorite item close by and, most importantly, off the dirty floor.

When choosing one, look for clips made with food-grade silicone beads and a secure clasp, ensuring the total length is safe for baby use (typically around 10 inches including the loop).
