What is a cloth nappy?

Definition: a cloth absorbent layer and a water resistant layer for covering a baby’s bottom.

What nappy should I get?

There is no one perfect nappy -what fits one baby well may not be as good a fit on another baby. Your own preference will also play a part in what you prioritise in a nappy; be it fast drying, inexpensive, cute, organic cotton, easy to put on etc..   The library  loan kits offer a try before you buy service so you don’t have to invest before you know what works best for you and your baby.

It is worth considering that you may want different nappies for different purposes. Some quick drying nappies for winter use, some very absorbent nappies for night-time, some cute nappies for showing off in the summer, some slim nappies for tighter clothing.

Local Supports

Local libraries do a monthly nappuccino where you can see various cloth nappies, ask questions and borrow a kit to try at home.
