Details

Our Shield Maiden Nipple Guards are designed to assist moms and babies that are facing a variety of breastfeeding challenges. Ceres Chill's patent-pending shields can help your little one properly latch and suckle more effectively. Our unique design allows for maximized skin-to-skin contact between you and your baby. They’re comfortable, breathable, and flexible to help build your breastfeeding success.  

Reasons a Breastfeeding Mama May Need Nipple Shields:

  • Latching difficulties
  • Tongue ties
  • Soreness
  • Having flat or inverted nipples

But the most AMAZING part for any exhausted new mom is the color-changing quality! 

Shield Maidens are colorless when at body temperature so they don't interfere with a more natural breastfeeding experience, and to help you easily find them when they're not in use, the Shield Maidens become a highly-visible color when at room temperature. How cool is that?! 

Shield Maiden Nipple Guards:

  • Are made of laboratory-tested, food-grade silicone that has a velvety skin-texture on the side used by your nursing baby, and is smooth on mama’s side so it adheres well.
  • Include (2) Nipple Guards and a booklet by renowned lactation consultant, Katie Dunning. Our User guide helps you to ensure this is the last set of nipple shields you will need. 
  • Are FSA, HSA, and HRA reimbursable — just submit your receipt to your provider!
  • PLEASE NOTE: If you're not sure of your shield size (because who is?!), our Magic Sizing Kit includes one shield in each size. You can try them out and see which one feels the most comfortable for you! If you find your perfect match, please reach out to us at info@cereschill.com, and we’ll send you a promo code for 50% off to get the full set.  Nipples are cousins, not twins, so you might even use two sizes at once!
  • Contact us if you have questions about sizing or Shield Maiden Nipple Guards. 
  • Comes with a Lifetime Warranty.

 

 

A Word From A Lactation Expert

Hello Hero Moms!

This transitional tool helps...

  • Preemies without the physiological development to effectively nurse
  • Overly slow or fast let-down — helps regulate the amount of milk received by the infant
  • Allow damaged nipples to heal
  • Teach a baby how to nurse with flat or inverted nipples, especially if they’ve become accustomed to a bottle
  • Resolve nipple confusion from bottle-feeding
  • Address tongue-tie, lip-tie, or abnormal palate

Advantages of the Shield Maiden...

  • The color change makes it easy to find
  • The texture is more like skin
  • More malleable than standard silicone which helps avoid painful pinching
  • The softer tip is less foreign to the baby and causes less gagging

All my best to you,

 *Use your Shield Maidens only for their intended use as described in this booklet and do not allow children to access or use them without the supervision of an adult. Children should not play with the Shield Maidens or put them in their mouths. If swallowed, any nipple shield or guard is a choking hazard.

First time mama

Exactly as described! Definitely enjoyed the tutorial video of how to use the nipple shields which was much needed for a confidence boost being a first time mama! Got mine within a week from ordering which was spectacular! Thank you so much!

Great way to find your perfect size!

I like that they are not clear and I can find them easily. They don’t seem to stay on too well. Slide off really easily. A bit disappointed.

Best nipple shield I’ve tried

I don’t love nipple shields. I’m breastfeeding a second baby and neither has taken to nursing without a shield, that said these are the best I’ve found. I do wish they offered more size options.

Anna

They do not stay on and almost always end up entirely in my infant’s mouth. Each time I’ve tried to use them, he gives up and is in tears. It is frustrating for us both.

Hey Anna!
It sounds like this might be a sizing issue, and we would love to help you out with this! Please reach out to us and I can connect you with one of our Lactation Consultants.
All my best,
Rachel
