bumGenius Elemental

This is an all in one nappy, so there's very little you need to do before using it. The only thing is to fold the fabric inner (see pictures). Fold it at the front for a boy and at the back for a girl. Whilst you can add boosters you don't always need to. We ask that you always add either a fleece or disposable liner to catch the poo but that's all. The inside of the nappy is organic cotton and it has the USA Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification.

Price - Around £20 per nappy.

Use with - A fleece liner and if you want to with the bamboo, cotton or microfibre boosters.

Top tip: when drying this nappy on a line or airer pull out the fabric so the bit with the fold isn't squashed together and turn part way through drying.

We ask that you always add either a fleece or disposable liner to catch the poo but that's all. This one fastens with velcro and is the closest to a disposable nappy design of all of all them in the kit. Before washing fold the Velcro back against the other piece of Velcro to stop it sticking to everything else in the wash.

The prefold may look like a large piece of cotton but it’s so much more. It’s made from lots of different layers of cotton sewn together to create a very absorbent nappy. There are two long seams along the prefold giving you 2 places to fold the fabric.

There are different ways you can fold this to give more absorbency for a boy or a girl. This picture shows the instructions on the packaging of the prefolds. You don’t need to use a nappi nippa to fasten it together either. Prefolds are a great budget way of using washable nappies and you can choose from a whole range or different wraps with lots of different patterns to match your taste.

Sizes - The prefold in the pack will work for any size, it all depends on how you fold it. It is possible to buy smaller ones too.

Price - Depending on the material and size you can buy them starting around £2 each. They tend to be available in larger packs which reduces the price further.

Use with - The Bambino Mio, Sweet Pea or Little Lamb wraps. You can also add boosters and liners.

Flat nappy

This is very much seen as the traditional washable nappy, pictures of large white towels on washing lines but as you know from reading all this info and borrowing pack – it’s just ONE of many options! A large square of towelling that you can fold in a number of ways depending on how much your baby wees and the type of poos. Here are a couple of guides you can read for the different folds...

A guide to nappy folds from TerryNappies.co.uk

Once you’ve completed your fold use the nappi nippa to hold it all together. A nappi nippa is used instead of a safety pin and has no pins so there’s no risk or sticking a sharp pin in to your baby.

Sizes - One size fits all.

Price - Starts from around £2. Packs with larger numbers are available which brings the cost down even further.

Use with - A nappi nippa, extra boosters, a liner and any of the waterproof wraps in the pack (Bambino Mio, Sweet Pea, Motherease Airflow or Little Lamb)

Bambino Mio Wrap

This is a sized wrap. It will fit over folded or sized fabric nappies that don’t have a waterproof outer layer. At the front there’s a pocket to help stop any fabric (or anything else) escaping. With this wrap you could choose to layer up boosters inside the nappy to create a custom nappy and they’d be held in by the pocket at the front of the wrap.

There are lots of ways to use a wrap. With a two part nappy system (wrap and fabric part) you do not need to change the wrap at every change unless it’s got poo on it or you want to.

With popper fastening this is adjustable around the waist and the top of the legs which gives extra containment (it’s got a reputation for being poo-plosion proof!) and it’s great for babies that have chunky legs but a small waist.
