Reason of using cloth nappy

As you can see there are a number of benefits to using cloth nappies -benefits for baby, parents and our planet! Most people who choose cloth do so for multiple reasons.

• Many families opt for cloth as their baby’s skin simply cannot tolerate disposable options or they don’t like the idea of chemicals on their bums all day.
• Many families opt for cloth for financial reasons. Disposable nappies will cost about €1,000 per child from birth to potty. Cloth is a lot less and savings are multiplied when nappies are used on another baby.
• Cloth nappies will not fill up your bins. It’s also worth noting that “pooplosions” that seem to be common in disposable nappies are rare in cloth nappies: elastic at the back of a nappy is essential for reliable poo containment!
• Not many families switch to cloth for the sake of cuteness but it’s a nice little perk when you can save money, save the planet, have an effective, comfortable nappy and also win hands down in any cuteness competitions!
• The environment is a huge factor for many families. It’s hard to believe that 5 nappies a day 365 day a year for 2.5 years tots up to almost 4500 nappies. It’s unbelievable that disposable nappies take 200-500 years to decompose in landfills: using even just one cloth nappy a day reduces that number by almost 1,000. Together we can make a huge difference -and enjoy it in the process!
