They come with an absorbent 3-layer microfibre insert which stuffs inside the pocket. Additional boosters can be added for extra absorbency.

The outer layer of the nappy is a waterproof and breathable TPU. The inner layer of the nappy is a polyester suede cloth (100% man-made, not derived from animals) which helps to draw moisture away from your baby's bottom and in to the insert.

Fits from 8 -35lbs/3.5-16kg approx

To wash the Alva nappies, remove and rinse off the residuals (knock solids into toilet). Disposable liners may be used. Store in a dry pail, we recommend a hanging pail, and wash every 1-2 days.

Run a cold rinse, and machine wash (no hotter than 30ºC), do not use fabric softeners or bleach then hang dry or tumble dry on a low heat

Line drying in the sun will help to remove any staining

Alva nappies are a hugely popular range and The Nappy Gurus can understand why. Apart from the great choice of designs, Alva guarantee their nappies for a year! They come with a 3-layer microfibre insert and the have Hip and Crossover snaps to help prevent 'wing droop'

As with all nappies and inserts; wash before first use to help increase absorbency. Place the insert inside the nappy through the open pocket in the back. You can also insert more than one insert when extra absorbency is needed. We recommend Bamboo Boosters.
