There are many reasons for choosing real cloth nappies and because you are here suggests that you have already considered at least one of them. You might want to save money, protect the environment, prefer to use natural fabrics on your baby's skin..... or you may just like the big bottomed look and the many fabulous fabrics and designs that are available. Forget fumbling around with fancy folds and smelly liquid filled buckets, modern cloth nappies are simple to use and easy to launder at home.

• Using real cloth nappies rather than disposables will save you HUNDREDS of pounds (including the cost of laundering).
• Real cloth nappies do not go into landfill, unlike disposables which take hundreds of years to decompose.... YUCK ! 
• Real cloth nappies do not contain absorbant chemicals, unlike most disposables which contain artificial gels, lotions, fragrances and plastics.

A baby needs around 5000 nappy changes during its life. That's a lot of waste if using disposables. In fact, 8 MILLION nappies go into landfill EVERY DAY in the UK. So it is estimated that around 50% of household waste is made up of disposable nappies in a family with one child.
