About Nannycare

Nannycare is a British goat milk formula specialist. For more than 30 years, the brand has focused exclusively on goat milk nutrition, creating formulas for parents who prefer goat milk as the base for their baby’s formula.

Nannycare uses full-cream goat milk from pasture-raised New Zealand goats. The milk is supplied by a cooperative of family farms, then transported to the United Kingdom and made into formula in a dedicated UK facility.

The brand is known for a straightforward recipe built around goat milk and lactose. Nannycare does not use palm oil, starch, maltodextrin, corn syrup or soy-based ingredients in its goat milk formula range.

The Nannycare range

Nannycare Goat Milk formula

Nannycare’s full range is based on full-cream goat milk from pasture-raised New Zealand goats. The formula uses lactose as its main carbohydrate and contains DHA, vitamins and minerals for each stage of development. It is free from palm oil, starch, maltodextrin, corn syrup and soy. Some parents report good tolerance with goat milk formula, but every baby is different. Nannycare is not hypoallergenic and is not a solution for cow’s milk protein allergy.
