Mildew on your Cloth Nappies? Removing black spots from cloth nappies or covers is tricky and what works for one may not for another! Here are a few tips that we have found really work:

We were asked some questions recently about Real Nappies and thought the answers would make an interesting blog... What’s a helpful tip for keeping my nappies sorted after washing and drying? A great way to keep everything simple is to fold your nappies and pop them under the change-table so that they are ready to use as soon as it gets to change time. This makes change time quick and easy every time.

We love to hear from our customers, and the following testimonial was written by a lovely lady who used our Birth to Potty Pack nappies with 4 of her babies – proof our nappies stand the test of time! 2 Child Guarantee – wow this lady made it to 4! 'As a new Mum I was keen to provide my baby with the healthiest most natural start in life but found that often this idealist ‘green’ approach was hard to maintain as our lives are much busier than that of our grandmothers who never had to take baby out in the car etc so when a friend lent me the ‘snug wrap’ to try I was sceptical that I could keep it up as I had failed with the pins and nappy pants before. However after two days I was on line and purchased my first set...'

“You are so lucky nowadays you don’t have to use those awful cloth nappies, pins and plastic overpants!” That was the comment of my mum when I told her I was pregnant. Then 7 years later here we are with the largest Cloth Nappy Company in New Zealand. So why did we make this decision, and not only make the decision to use cloth but to start up a company and become so passionate about it that here we are today launching into the USA and the UK! Well actually I blame my husband….

You change your Newborn baby between 8-10 times a day, this reduces as your baby gets older down to aprox 6 times a day as a Toddler. With our Birth to Potty Pack we have calculated that based on the usual consumption of nappies, you would only need to wash every 3rd day, equating to an extra 5 minutes spent each day to use Real Nappies Cloth Nappies.

Here is the article about Real Nappies becoming the cloth nappy company of choice at an Auckland Hospital in New Zealand. Not to brag but we are the first and only company to gain this much coveted title!

We've put together 12 of the many reasons to choose Real Nappies cloth nappies versus other available cloth nappy systems. Real Nappies is the most comprehensive pack available, it is a serious Birth to Potty Pack! When checking out competitors make sure to look at actual pack contents, our pack gives enough for 24 newborn changes for example so it means 1 machine wash every 2-3 days per child.
