I was afraid of clipping/biting my newborn's fingernails so I purchased this product & brought it to the hospital in my "go bag." My baby was born with super long claws and scratched the heck out of me when they placed her on my chest! We actually used this file in the hospital before discharge and it was magical. I was able to sand down her fingernails and she slept through the whole thing. I tried it on my own skin first, and it was gentle enough to not hurt even if I accidentally bumped it on my skin (or hers), yet strong enough to shave down those baby nails. It saved us from using mitts on her (which she would have hated because she loves eating her hands).
I still use it (she's a few month old now) at least once every few days because her nails still get sharp. LOVE this product!!! (just make sure to use the INFANT sandpaper head).

I used this product my first day home from the hospital and at least 3 times a week ever since. My baby is 16 weeks old and it�s safe to say she�s never scratched herself or had to wear mittens. The nail file is quiet and she likes looking at the light/doesn�t fuss at all. Amazing quality for the price.

The first time I tried cutting my newborns nails, I clipped the tip of her finger. I broke down in tears and felt terrible. I refused to use nail clippers again. This showed up on my IG so I figured I'd give it a try. Well, it is amazing! It files her nails so nice and smooth. So much better!!!! I an at ease now when it's time to cut her nails. To top it off, it's an amazing price! I highly recommend!!

Why did it take me until the third kid to buy this? This product is awesome and my baby girl doesn�t mind at all when I �trim� her nails. So much easier than trying to cut with those little clippers..then you have those little sharp edges at the corners anyway?! I have to use this a little more often than trimming, but totally with it! Bonus, you can use on your nails as well! I will buy for anyone having a baby!!

After my husband and I both nicked our preemie newborn�s delicate fingertips with traditional baby clippers, we were terrified to try again. (I cried 10 times more than our daughter when I saw the blood.) But she is very prone to scratch her face and finds mittens uncomfortable, so we had to find a solution. Our pediatric dermatologist recommended an electric file, and our world began anew. This product is truly a lifesaver. I tested it on myself before trying on our daughter, and it�s a feather-soft touch. I�ve used it to trim her nails four times now (always while she is sleeping; highly recommended to minimize wiggles), and am beyond pleased. It files her nails down effectively without distributing her one bit. Not only is it quiet, but I tested it on myself first, and you can barely feel it. The only drawback is that can be a little difficult to file down the outer corners of her nails, but it�s achievable with patience and definitely helps that you can reverse the direction that the file spins. The light is helpful, too � although the angle is slightly off, so it�s more useful for an initial inspection of the nail than for providing illumination when you�re filing. Regardless, I wish someone had told us about this product before we tried the clippers... It will definitely be the first item we buy for all our friends� future baby showers!

Works very well on fidgeting infants and toddlers. Ever felt like you are diffusing a bomb when clipping little one's nails? This thing takes *most* of the stress out of the process. No longer do you have to worry about snipping off too much or clipping some skin. The motor on the nail file is strong enough to polish off little nails, but light enough that any extra pressure will cause the disc to stop.
I bought 2 of these (one for me, one for a baby shower). I got mine sometime after my baby was born, so I skipped the first grit disc. When I needed to reorder new ones for my son's age, the company didn't have any non mixed sets (i didn't need an extra soft grit pad as I wasn't going to use it). The folks at Little Martin worked with me to get me a 3 pack of the grit level I needed. Not only is this a good product, the folks behind it are awesome too.

This is the single best purchase I have made in the 5 months since I had my daughter. Every new mom needs this! I accidentally cut my daughters finger when I was trying to trim her nails... it felt like the worst day of my life __ lol! She was screaming, got little streaks of blood on her adorable pajamas, it was just st heartbreaking. So my husband insisted he is better with precision so he would clip them the next time. Don't you know it, he cut her in the exact same spot! SERIOUSLY THE WORST!!!!
So after feeling like the worst parents in the world, we finally ordered this bad boy. It is everything they claim it to be! Quiet, gentle, and impossible to hurt your lo with as long as you're using the right tip. Another bonus: her nails are so nice and smooth, not the razor-sharp talons they were before! ____ Best product ever!!!

This is a quality product that fulfills its promise. I am able to quickly and safely file down my baby's nails without risking cutting her. The files are of good quality and last through multiple uses. I made the mistake of ordering a cheap version of this type of file and the files barely lasted one use before they came apart. The device itself appeared to be the exact same as this one on the outside. I wish I would've had this when my baby was a newborn.

Every parent with a baby needs to have this!!! I have to trim my son�s nails almost daily or he scratches his head and face up so badly. Trimming his nails with baby sciccors or clippers was difficult because he wouldn�t keep his hands or body still for long and he would wake if I tried to do it in his sleep. This nail file he actually just sits and watches as I use it on his nails. It works so fast and it�s so gentle that I don�t have to worry about being super accurate with where I�m using it, it doesn�t hurt your skin at all. I trimmed his nails all the way down in like two minutes. This is an absolute must have and should be on every baby registry!!

We didn't want the normal fear of clipping our babies nails. So, we were using a thin nail file and it was taking too long. I found this and it is perfect! The various pieces have different thickness, so we can use it on our infant and our toddler. It is very lightweight and the pieces detach fairly easy. I love that it has different directions and speeds, depending on which hand you're doing. It also has a little light, so you can use it as night when they are sleeping and they would never know what happened! I recommend this to all my new parent friends!

I was having all kinds of trouble with my four month old constantly scratching his face. Are used a baby nail file but could never seem to get them trimmed it down enough for him not to hurt himself. I bought this because one of my friends suggested something similar. I was having all kinds of trouble with my five month old constantly scratching his face. I used a baby nail file but could never seem to get them trimmed down enough for him not to hurt himself. I bought this because one of my friends suggested something similar. I have no idea why I waited so long! This thing is amazing! It�s extremely quiet and it doesn�t bother the baby at all. It even has a little light on it so you could trim the nails in his sleep. I absolutely crushe I have no idea why I waited so long! This thing is amazing! It�s extremely quiet and it doesn�t bother the baby at all. Even has a little light on it so you could trim the nails in his sleep. It grinds the nail but doesn�t hurt at all and is super delicate to the skin. It comes with different nail boards and I didn�t use one of them on my own nails. This little gadget is fantastic! I will be getting it as gifts for other new moms.

So easy to use, and once you get the angle down as instructed in the directions, it's a breeze! It was great too that it turns in both directions...I have only used it for my baby so I don't know how well the other attachments do...but I file her nails when she's asleep and it's a snap she doesn't wake up and it's easier cause she doesn't fidget. I'd recommend this! Saved me from my fears of cutting her accidentally with a clipper. I forgot to take a before shot but her nails get long and scratch me when she's breastfeeding so this helped me too.

I love this thing! So easy to use!!!! Way better then clipping his nails!

I had no idea how difficult it would be to cut a baby�s nails OR fast they grew!!!! Like every other day he was scratching the crap out of me and his poor forehead. This nail trimmer is amazing and we use it seriously all the time. We got it when my son was 2.5 months old and he doesn�t mind it one bit. It�s also super safe - like he grabs it all the time and half the time it�s on his finger skin as I�m trying to get his nails and it doesn�t hurt him at all. Definitely a baby product you NEED
