Doidy Cup: The Original Training Cup for Independent Drinking
First designed in 1950 by a parent, the Doidy Cup was created to teach children how to drink properly and independently. Recommended by dentists and speech therapists, it is widely recognised by NHS trusts, charities, and councils as the ideal cup for children. Its free-flow functionality supports natural sipping motions, while the open cup and slanted design help children see the liquid level, improving hand-eye coordination and building confidence. Suitable for babies aged 3 months and older, the Doidy Cup supports the journey toward independent drinking. While its primary focus is on teaching proper drinking techniques, it also aids in transitioning from breastfeeding or bottle-feeding.
Why Choose the Doidy Cup?
- Free-Flow Design: Recommended for Development
The Doidy Cup’s free-flow functionality is recommended by dentists and speech therapists. It allows liquid to flow naturally, encouraging sipping motions that support healthy oral development and help protect teeth. - Open Design: Easier Transition from Breastfeeding
The open design lets children see the liquid level, helping them train their hand-eye coordination while learning to drink properly. Unlike bottles or sippy cups, it mimics the natural sipping motion, boosting confidence and preparing children to drink independently—a key NHS milestone by 12 months. - Child-Friendly Features
Thoughtfully designed with two easy-grip handles, the Doidy Cup is ideal for little hands, making it simple for children to lift and control. Its slanted shape ensures drinking is intuitive and frustration-free for beginners. - Simple to Clean and Use
With no extra parts, the Doidy Cup is hassle-free for busy parents. It’s dishwasher-safe (top shelf), microwave-safe, and travel-friendly for easy use at home or on the go. - Safe and High-Quality Materials
Made from BPA-free, food-grade polypropylene, the Doidy Cup complies with BS EN 14350:2020 standards for safety and durability, giving parents peace of mind.
How to Use
- Wash the Doidy Cup before the first use.
- Pour a small amount of liquid into the cup. Gently place the rim on the baby’s lower lip to let them sip.
- As your child grows, encourage them to hold the cup handles and drink independently. Spills may occur but are part of the learning process.
Warnings and Precautions
- Always supervise your child while feeding or drinking.
- Check the temperature of liquids before serving.
- Never leave a child unattended during feeding.
- Discard at the first signs of damage or wear.

Nice colour, 1 year not able to use it yet.

Love our doidy cups, we do use less now, however was a great intro cup for a baby who refused all bottles. If struggling with baby that doesn’t want to take fluids from other cups or bottles, hopefully this can start them off, like it did with our baby

I was recommended to buy these cups to start BLW with my 6 months old. I have been using them for a couple of days now and they are great, encourages my son to practise sipping, because of the shape you can actually see if they are drinking and how much, easy to clean and take anywhere.

I love the cup, my child is earning how to drink out of a open cup and this is the perfect trainer cups. It’s tilted so not hard to lift, has handles for extra support. Nice colour.

Sadly my 16 month old daughter never liked it , she rather use the cups mummy and daddy uses but I get the concept of the cup.

Brought this for my 2 year old as she was constantly spilling her drink from a regular cup.
The slant on the cup means she doesn’t have to tilt the cup as far to get a drink, so she can take smaller sips with less tilt, rather than tipping the cup too far and spilling it all down herself.
It’s hard to explain how it works but it does!!!
It has two handles which are great as she has better control when holding the cup with two hands.
The only issue I have found is if she is walking with it, water spills out the opposite side easier if she tips the cup that way when not paying attention. So we are using it just for training, and not to have a drink to walk around with, which has been good because to it’s a novelty to use a grown up cup and be able to do it herself without spilling! She loves using it, and is therefor drinking more water too, so it’s a win, win!
I’d definitely recommend, it’s really helped build her confidence and skill!
