It can't get any simpler than a one style, one brand hire package. No thinking required....because we all know you have enough to think about with a gorgeous little newborn on your hands.
This stash has our popular Seedling Baby Mini-fit pocket nappies which should fit Bub perfectly in those newborn weeks. Our customers have been loving the pocket style, for easy of use - the insert stays securely inside the pocket and the bonus is that there is only one surface to scrub come poo-nami time! The prefold insert unfolds for quick dry times....bonus! Pre-stuff the nappies so that it is easier for cloth newbies to fit on bub if you are lucky enough to find someone to take care of nappy changes for you. The double gusseted leg elastics are also perfectly designed to contain those liquidy newborn poos!
It is a larger newborn nappy so probably not as suitable for a tiny or premie bub but the bonus is that this nappy will last you weeks and weeks! So you can continue to use this hire package while you begin to search for your perfect One Size Fits Most fit.
Find your perfect OSFM fit while you have the luxury of having enough newborn nappies to use in-between! Our 'My First OSFM Nappies' package is the ideal transition package to try out toward the end of your newborn hire package.

Your wash | dry routine is integral to maintaining the lifespan of your nappies and helps to keep your nappies in tip top condition.
Below is a generic outline only and we recommend that you follow the wash instructions specified by each brand and read all about what NOT to use on your cloth nappies!
Washing your new nappies? Read what to do here.

* Note: Some brands recommend rinsing all nappies as soon as they come off to help prevent the build-up of ammonia smell
* Night nappies tend to be the smelliest due to the higher concentration and quantity of urine they withhold. A thorough hand-rinse in hot water with detergent, in the morning, is recommended *(but here at TCS we do our daily prewash as soon as the morning nappies come off to avoid this step) *


*Removes bulk of soiling here to allow the main wash to be done in clean water.
*Most brands recommend a daily pre-wash on the nappies used within the last 24hrs
*A full load is recommended for the best agitation and clean. Pad out the load with tea towels or clothing if required.
*Most brands recommend a main wash every other day
*A full load is recommended for the best agitation and clean. Pad out the load with tea towels or clothing if required.
* If you follow a good wash routine and wash at the correct temperatures, then barrier creams will wash out! More details here.
Detergent: Most of our stocked brands recommend a good quality main stream detergent. Here at TCS we alternate between OMO Ultimate, OMO Sensitive & Biozet Attack Regular Laundry Liquids.....whatever happens to be on sale at the time! Woolworths and Coles regularly offer half price sales on these brands so keep your eye out for the sales. Prefer a more natural solution? Then look no further than Kin Kin Eco Laundry liquid which is available here.
