When parents look at goat milk formula, it can seem like all brands are similar. But there are important differences in how each formula is made.
Nannycare Goat contains double the whole goat milk compared to Kendamil, with around 30% less vegetable oil thanks to the extra natural milk fat we keep from whole goat milk†. It also contains 2'FL Fibre.
Whole milk means more natural milk fat, which allows Nannycare to use less added vegetable oil while still providing the right balance of nutrition. Some vegetable oil is always needed, as it provides essential Omega 3 and Omega 6 fats that milk alone doesn’t supply.
Nannycare Goat also includes 2’FL Fibre. Kendamil uses GOS, which is structurally different.

At Nannycare, our approach goes beyond meeting standards - it’s about continually raising them. Proudly British and built on science, every decision we make comes back to preserving the natural integrity of milk and ensuring parents have a truly evidence-led choice they can trust.
Nannycare continues to raise the bar for whole milk in formula - combining British purpose, scientific integrity, and care in every tin.
Nannycare Goat is made with over twice as much whole goat milk† compared to Kendamil Goat and requires around 30% less vegetable oil†. It also contains 2’FL Fibre, while Kendamil Goat contains GOS.
Whole goat milk naturally contains more milk fat. This means Nannycare can use less added vegetable oil, while still keeping the right balance of fats. (Some vegetable oil is always needed, as it provides essential Omega 3 and Omega 6 which milk fat alone doesn’t supply.)
2'FL Fibre complements the naturally occurring oligosaccharides already present in our whole goat milk. It's included in our recipe as part of our commitment to continually evolving our formulas in line with the latest developments in infant and toddler nutrition.
Some formulas include prebiotic fibres such as GOS (galacto-oligosaccharides) and plant-derived FOS (fructo-oligosaccharides). These are structurally different from 2’FL.
Goat milk formulas, like Nannycare, are recognised in UK and EU regulations as a suitable alternative to cow’s milk formulas. Both types must meet the same strict nutritional standards. Choosing between them often comes down to personal preference and your baby’s needs.
