We had some trouble opening some of those press and turn bottles in the beginning. We were pressing down too hard while turning. Try just a little downward pressure while you turn.

I never heard of this brand or company. I even tried finding the website to see if I could see what kind of caps they use.

I have to deal with those types of caps all day at my job. Can you pry the top part of the cap? Most child proof caps are 2 pieces. The top piece that you push has little grabbers in it. The piece that it grabs onto has little notches in it. If you can remove the top part of the cap, HOPEFULLY you'll be able to simply turn the rest and open it.
