Thinking about using cotton nappies?

Modern cotton nappies are a convenient and reliable alternative to using disposable nappies.

Made with soft comfortable fabrics, easy to use, Velcro/popper fastens, they’re great for your baby but better for the environment and can be better on your pocket too.

Health

• Cotton nappies are naturally absorbent without relying on absorbent chemicals that are used in disposables.
• Babies wearing cotton nappies are generally potty trained 6-12 months earlier.
• Cotton nappies are great for babies with skin conditions because they are naturally breathable, unlike disposables which become hotter when wet.
• Easy to use.
• No more pins! Cotton nappies now fasten with Velcro, poppers
• Soft, quick drying fabrics make them easy to wash at low temperatures and dry quickly.
• There are many different types of nappies to choose from.
• quick drying, easy to use and natural/organic fabrics. 

Cut down on waste

• Even just using washable nappies part time will have a significant effect on the volume of waste you throw away each week.
• A baby in disposables will need about 4000 nappies until they are potty trained, compare this with just 18 cotton nappies needed from birth to potty!
• Cotton nappies can be washed and used again and again, so there is less waste in your bin.
• Even just using one cotton nappy a day can make a real difference.
