3 steps to your baby having the cutest, greenest bum in town

There are so many decisions when you have a baby, and one of the biggest for eco-conscious parents is how to keep your baby's carbon footprint down! There has been a lot of discussion over the years (and a lot of misinformation!) but latest studies show without doubt that real nappies are better for the environment. The extent of the benefits depends on how the nappies are washed and cared for. We believe that - just to big you up a bit here - our customers want to do their bit for the environment, and by choosing careful care methods you could save at least 40% of the carbon dioxide equivalents compared to using disposables.

 real vs disposable nappies

This one may well be your main reason for switching - and in these times where we all have to watch what we're spending, that's no great surprise! There have been countless reports showing the great cost savings, and we calculate a WHOPPING £1000 saving over the time your baby's in real nappies.

Add in re-use amongst siblings, and your savings will grow and grow.

We're used to people in our shop muttering scarcely disguised "oohs" and "wows" when they see how hi-tech the modern range of real nappies is, so we forget that looking online doesn't always show off the sophistication and appeal of 21st century cloth nappies.

From clever designs to modern fabrics (astonishingly absorbant, reassuringly eco-friendly and super-comfy), from the sizing adjustments to the beautiful prints and colours which make cloth nappies such a popular choice, they truly are the innovative successor to the old terry square.

As the new cloth nappies have updated, a huge focus has been on making them easier to use. The most modern "all-in-one" nappies have one piece which is as easy to put on and take off as a disposable.

Washing and care is easier than ever too. You flush away the paper liner with the poo (rinsing off any extra soiling that remains on the nappy) and then nappies are stored in pails without soaking (no dripping wet nappies to get from the pail to the wash) washed at a temperature of 40-60 degrees and line dried. And as so many real nappy users tell us, part of the thrill is having your lovely nappies hanging up in the sun to dry!

 nappies

You won't need us to tell you this, but the vast range of beautiful designs now available to cloth nappy users means that you can make sure your baby has the cutest, softest, snuggest bum around.

Real nappy parents are the envy of the changing room, and so many people switch when they've seen our beautiful nappies on another baby's bum, and want to get some for themselves!

The most frequent comment we hear from our customers is that they just can't make head or tail of all of the different jargon to do with real nappies. We've put together a quick guide to each of the main choices in your real nappy, to get you started.

Although everyone says this, we really take extra care to provide the best, most trustworthy and unbiased advice and service we can. We won't sell you anything you don't need, won't advise on a more expensive product if a cheaper one will suit you better, and won't advise against a product we don't stock if it's going to work for you!

Our customers tell us time and time again that we are trusted for our pricing, advice and service. Our aftersales is also excellent and we only stock brands which have a similar approach to making sure customers are looked after after a sale as well as after.

 Testimonials

We have always put fair pricing at the forefront of our policy, and have gained something of a reputation for our amazing 20% off sales.

But we're not content to stop there. We always run a scheme where if you spend more, you save more - up to 20% on orders over £100. And because we want to make sure we're charging the best prices there are, we also pricematch. If you find it cheaper elsewhere, we'll not only knock off the difference in price, but take off a further 10% of the difference, meaning we can GUARANTEE YOU THE BEST UK PRICES.

There's no point in running a specialist shop selling specialist products if you can't cut through the confusion. So we pride ourselves on making simple advice readily available. Our website is clear and easy to understand, with several pages (like this one!) to guide you in the right direction. Our online chat, phone advice and shop consultations are also very popular and well reviewed.
