Cloth nappy workshop – online

Join us for an informative cloth nappy workshop where you can learn all about the benefits of using cloth nappies for your little one. Our expert will guide you through the process of choosing, using, and caring for cloth nappies. You’ll also have the chance to ask any questions you may have and connect with other parents who are on the same journey. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to make a positive impact on the environment and your baby’s comfort!

The workshop covers the benefits of cloth nappies (environmental, financial), the different styles, how to wash them, and simple tips and tricks to make cloth super easy. With over 60 nappies and accessories, you can check out not only cloth nappies, but also other reusables such as pull-ups, swim nappies and cloth wipes.
