About Bickiepegs
BICKIEPEGS HEALTHCARE is an expert in the oral care of infants aged 3 months to 2+ years and is the home of the brands Bickiepegs Teething Biscuits and the unique slanted training cup – The Doidy Cup. We are proud that both Bickiepegs and Doidy are produced in the United Kingdom.
BICKIEPEGS was founded in 1925 when Harley Street Paediatrician Dr. Harry Campbell MD FRCP began studies into the development of the jaw & teeth spacing in young children. His research concluded it was important to encourage healthy teeth to grow even before they are visible, by exercising babies’ jaws and ultimately helping to ease the pain of teething. The Bickiepegs Teething Biscuit was born and is still made today to the original ‘100% natural’ recipe in our dedicated bakery in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
THE DOIDY CUP was designed in the U.K. in the 1950s and unlike many plastic products used around the home, continues to be manufactured in the U.K. Its revolutionary design has stood the test of time and has been helping infants & toddlers to drink from an open cup for seven decades. With its unique slant the cup enables children to learn to drink using the same mouth action as breast feeding and for this reason it is consistently recommended by Health Professionals.
Our products are recommended and sold by leading Health Professionals and Organisations such as the NHS, Barnados, National Childbirth Trust (NCT) and are UNICEF ‘Baby Friendly’.
History Of Bickiepegs
We are naturally proud of our professional links right back to our founder who was a leading Harley Street Paediatric Doctor. It was through Dr. Harry Campbell’s connection to Bickiepegs that it started in London in 1925. The business moved to Welwyn Garden City in the 1927 where it remained until the 1970s when it relocated to Aberdeenshire where it remains to this day.
ROYAL CONNECTIONS
we are proud to be able to say Bickiepegs have been used in several Royal Nurseries here and abroad. Some of our prized possessions are letters from the Queen Mother’s (then the wife of King George VI and Queen consort of the United Kingdom and the Dominions) Lady In Waiting confirming their success!

Professional Testimonials
I fully support and recommend the use of the Doidy cup. As a Nutritionist and specialist in Baby Led Weaning, I am always looking for products that support nutrition and health. The design of the Doidy cup fits this bill perfectly. It supports a baby’s oral development, encourages good motor skills and enables independence. I used the cup with both of my children and highly recommend its use from birth, through the weaning stage and beyond. ”
