care:

Similar to tea towels or bath towels, pre-washing your cloth nappies is an important step to ensure they reach their maximum absorbency before using on bubs. We recommend you wash them between 3-5 times on a full length cycle, no hotter than 60 degrees. If short on time, you could also soak inserts overnight and then wash both inserts & covers on a warm cycle no hotter than 60 degrees.

Depending on the deposit your little one has left behind, here’s what to do with each type of dirty cloth nappy:

• Pee only: Saturate with cold water under the tap, and place in a dry pail.
• Newborn poo (breastfed or bottle fed): Saturate with cold water under the tap, and place in a dry pail.
• Solid poo: Tip solids from the nappy and into the toilet. Saturate with cold water under the tap, and place in a dry pail.
• Night nappies: Saturate with cold water under the tap, and place in a dry pail.

It is important to wash your dirty nappies every 1-2 days. Leaving them any longer will encourage the growth of bacteria and mould.

• Step 1: Start by washing nappies and inserts on a warm pre-rinse cycle. This gets rid of any excess urine or soiling before the wash cycle.
• Step 2: Follow with a warm, regular/long wash cycle, no hotter than 60 degrees. Wash with the correct amount of detergent recommended by your detergent manufacturer for the water level/load size.

Simply run a full rinse cycle, followed by a warm wash no hotter than 60 degrees, then line dry! Use a natural detergent when available, no bleaching agents as this breaks down the waterproofing. These modern cloth nappies are made from stain resistant fabrics. After completing our recommend washing routine, hang your nappies out to dry in natural sunlight, and let nature do all of the hard work for you! Stains will be gone, and your nappies will be left fresh as a field of daisies!

These fabrics should be taken to a textile recycling facility at the end of their useful life.
