What do I do with the poo?
From bum to bin (or flush), we make poo-proofing easy. Just knock the poo into the toilet or alternatively make life super simple by using our disposable liners. Liners can be removed (along with the poo) and popped in the bin easily.
Wash before first use
Prewashing is essential, not only for hygiene reasons but also to make your nappies absorbent!
Soak & wash once
Soak in water for 24-48 hours followed by a machine wash with detergent (never use fabric softener). Our nappy buckets are great for this! Alternatively you can wash 3-5 times at 60C but this is less energy efficient.

How to wash
Prepare
Knock solids into the toilet or dispose of the liner (if used) in the bin. Pop the dirty nappy into a nappy bucket or wet bag.
Wash
Pre-rinse (40 mins approx on a rinse & spin cycle) and then wash on full cycle at 40° (for 2.5hrs). Never use fabric softener.
Dry
Hang your nappies on the line to dry or if needed put in the tumble dryer on a low setting.
Reuse
Nappies are clean and fresh, ready to be worn again! Soft on babies skin and kind to the planet.

Beautiful wet bags, mats, changing bags and more. We have all the things to help you enjoy using reusable nappies.
Frequently asked questions
How many reusable nappies do I need?
Here is our guide to how many reusable nappies you may need:
Using reusable nappies part-time: Based on using 2-3 reusable nappies per day on a part-time basis we recommend you have 8-10 nappies with washing every 1-2 days.
Using reusable nappies full-time: For full-time use we would recommend 18-25 nappies. This is based on using 6-8 reusable nappies per day and to allow 1-2 days between washing.
How do I store used nappies when out and about?
Store your used wipes/nappies in a ‘wet bag’. Pop into your nappy bucket/pail when home ready for wash day.
How do I store used nappies at home?
Used nappies should be stored in either a nappy bucket or a dry hanging pail/wet bag. Of course, also kept well out of reach from little ones.
If you are out and about store your used wipes/nappies in a ‘wet bag’. Pop into your nappy bucket/pail when home ready for wash day.
How do I dry the nappies & inserts?
The best way to dry nappies and inserts is on the washing line outside. This is also great for lifting stains as the sun is a natural bleacher.
NEVER dry directly on a radiator. Here are a few ways to dry nappies and inserts:
- Dry outside on the washing line
- Tumble dry on low
- Hang on an airier
- Dry in the airing cupboard
Always check the product label.
Can I use fabric softener?
No, never use fabric softener!
