Have you thought about switching to cloth?
There are so many benefits not just for the environment, but for your baby and your pocket too.

💚 Environmental factors - Using cloth nappies on your child for 2-3 years will stop around 5000 disposal nappies going to landfill.

💚 Choice - There are so many different types of cloth nappies. All-in-ones, Pocket nappies and Two-piece nappies, to name a few. You can find the perfect nappy which suits your baby, your budget and your lifestyle best.

💚 Cost effective - Cloth nappies can save you money.
If you compare the cost of disposables to cloth nappies, used from birth to potty training, cloth nappies can save you up to £600!

If you have any questions or would like information regarding our hire kits, please do message.

You may have seen in the news today about 'Nappy Tax' potentially being added on to disposable nappies in a government effort to reduce plastic waste, although untrue, it is causing a lot of controversy.

Although at Tavistock Cloth Nappy Library we are here to promote reusable nappies to reduce plastic waste, we do not believe this is the way forward!

We are lucky here in Devon to have a council who promotes the use of reusable nappies and has a brilliant scheme in place. It would be great to see the Government working alongside these councils and others, to promote and support these schemes more, rather than adding tax to products which could potentially be financially damaging to families.

If you would like support or more information on how to reduce nappy waste, we are here to help with your questions.

There are so many benefits when switching to cloth nappies not just for the environment, but for your baby and your pocket.

💚 Environmental factors - Using cloth nappies on your child for 2-3 years will stop around 5000 disposal nappies going to landfill.

💚 No Chemicals - Many disposable nappies contain chemicals, cloth nappies are mostly made from natural fibres, cotton, bamboo and h**p which are gentle on your baby's bum.

💚 Cost effective - Cloth nappies can save you money.
If you compare the cost of disposables to cloth nappies, used from birth to potty training, cloth nappies can save you up to £600!

We currently have one newborn kit and one BTP kit available to hire - please get in contact if you are interested.

I often get asked 'How many nappies will i need?'

There isn't a one size fits all answer, as it depends on the age of your baby, how many days between washes, types of nappies you are using (some take much longer to dry than others) and your drying facilities.

The guide below gives good estimates on how many you will need.

| Little Love Bum

We don't currently have these in our kits, but I'm definitely thinking about adding them in.

This is the Every Day One Size (10lb to 35lb), They also have newborn too (6-15lb) it is an All-in-One with two sewn in inserts made from H**p, bamboo and a fleece stay dry layer.
It's a super trim nappy which i love, and means an extra insert could be added without making it too bulky.

The nappy is definitely on the bigger size, Ember is around 22lb and slim and we could get away with using the smallest rise, this would be a great nappy for larger babies!

It is quite slow at drying, it took around 36 hours inside, but that's normal for AIOs, i would be interested to try the Quick Dry to see the difference!
