The Joy of Reusable Nappies


Book Description

With a Foreword by Guy Schanschieff MBE Chair of The Nappy Alliance There is nothing quite as soothing for the soul as folding nappies.

And importantly - Where does the poo go? 'Cloth nappy, real nappy, reusable nappy, natural diaper or washable diaper - there are lots of different terms out there but they all mean the same thing: a nappy you put on your baby that can be used again and again and not sent straight to landfill after a single use. And they are absolutely marvellous.' Pocket or All-in-one, Fitted Nappies or Terry Squares, this book walks you through the landscape of cloth nappies, revealing a simple way to reduce your impact on the environment as you discover a greener path to parenthood. This gentle guide on using and caring for reusable nappies is shared from a supportive voice of experience, filled with positive encouragement for all. It includes a researched approach to the debate of Reusable Nappies and the Environment advocating their benefits through calm, down-to-earth advice. Less waste, more joy, with every single nappy change.
