ABOUT THE BOOK-
The Joy of Reusable Nappies answers the ten biggest questions parents consider when they choose to reuse, including - How do I fit a reusable nappy? Are they suitable for newborns? And importantly - Where does the poo go?
‘Cloth nappy, real nappy, reusable nappy, natural nappy or washable nappy - 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 under 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.
Learn how to thrive on your reusable nappy journey - oh how joyful it will be.
