Better for Your Baby

Key Product Features:

Solid Tag
Nappi Nippas have a solid tag to hold between your thumb and forefinger to make it easier to grip and makes the nappy fastener more robust.

Loop Guard
In addition there is a loop that can be folded over the teeth to act as a guard and to help protect the nappy fastener when not in use.
This safeguards against children hurting themselves if they should get hold of it or it snagging on other items in storage. It also helps with the longevity of your Nappi Nippa.

Long Lasting
When used correctly, a few Nappi Nippas can last for a baby’s whole time in reusable nappies and beyond.

Benefits of Using Real Nappies

Converting to cloth nappies is easier than you may think and there are many benefits for both you and your baby, as well as for the environment.

For Babies:

Anecdotal evidence suggests that those children who use washable nappies become potty trained much quicker than those using disposables as they are more aware that they have been to the toilet. The Big Toilet Project started in 2025 by UCL is researching into reasons why children are potty training significantly later than previous generations. The use of disposables is one of the key aspects.

Reusable nappies can be made from a wide variety of fabrics, natural fabrics help your child’s skin to breathe naturally as they do not contain any chemicals or gels. It is usually more obvious when a child in cloth nappies has soiled it, so it tends to get changed sooner than a disposable nappy which helps the prevention of nappy rash.

For Parents:

Reusable nappies are very cost effective can save you hundreds per child and this saving will rise if the nappies are reused for subsequent children.

After the initial one off outlay to buy your cloth nappies there will be no need to shop on a regular basis for disposables. Our weekly shopping bill never increased after we had children until they started eating. Our set of reusable nappies and reusable wipes were bought during our first pregnancy and ended up being used on our three children.

The cost of reusable nappies varies depending on what types you buy and how many.

  • Traditional Cotton Terry Squares are always the most cost effective and a full set of terry nappies can be bought along with key components such as Nappi Nippas and waterproof covers for under £100.
  • Modern all in one nappies tend to be the most expensive but are as close to a disposable nappy as you can get. You won’t need a Nappi Nippa with an all in one nappy.

For the Environment:

It is predicted that a child will use between 4,000 and 6,000 nappies before they potty train. With the increasing age of potty training the average amount of nappies used is always increasing. Disposable nappies will unfortunately end up in landfill sites and as they decompose give out a harmful greenhouse gas called methane, which contributes to climate change. Increasing amounts of our waste in the UK is now going to incineration where it is contributing to air pollution.

WRAP (the Government’s Waste & Resources Action Programme) have calculated that households which use cloth nappies reduce their household waste by up to half compared to those continuing to use disposables.
