Botanic Baby Australian Cotton Wash Guide

Thank-you for purchasing our 100% Organic Cotton Australian prefold! These pre-folds have been made using Australian grown cotton. The raw yarn is machine knitted, overlocked and finished in-house at Botanic Baby, Victoria, Australia.
Our prefolds are made from natural unbleached cotton which gives them their light brown/fawn colour. As it is spun and knitted completely raw, the cotton still contains its natural oils which need to be pre-washed out to get maximum absorbency.
We recommend up to 3-4 hot washes using a laundry powder that does NOT contain any whiteners or brighteners. We have found that the ‘Earth Choice’ brand quite good in the powder form.
You can also add ¼ teaspoon of dishwashing liquid to help dissolve the oils, but not too much that it foams up the machine. After each wash and dry, check a pre-fold for absorbency under a tap, initially the water will bead off, but once the oils have been dissolved out the water will soak in.
Sometimes you may achieve absorbency after the first wash, but we have occasionally had to wash up to 3-4 times to get sufficient absorbency. If you have access to a dryer this will speed up the process and also give greater softness from each wash.

Sustainability

At Botanic Baby, we believe that reusable cloth nappies are the key to closing environmental gaps in the disposable diaper business. Approximately 96,000 babies are born in Victoria every year, each producing 700 kg of disposable diapers that take up to 500 years to decompose. That said, now is the time to make the switch to reusable cloth nappies, and Botanic Baby is leading the industry with a convenient, eco-friendly cloth nappy wash service for residents in Melbourne and surrounding areas since 2014.

As parents ourselves, we understand that using cloth diapers can be daunting at first, what with the initial cost and the added effort to wash and dry them. In order to make cloth nappies an option for parents throughout Victoria, we collect, wash, and restock your reusable cloth nappies through an affordable cloth nappy laundry service that is comparative in cost to buying disposable diapers. Not only do we do this to remove the burden of handling soiled nappies, but also to ensure that the nappies are washed to commercial standards using efficient, eco-friendly methods. Over the years we have gathered the first hand information serving thousands of customers to create a Product of Australia nappy which is more absorbent, natural and petroleum free (insert),  and thinner than ever before. 

We don’t just care about reducing landfill waste by helping to eliminate disposable diapers worldwide — we are also proactive about ensuring that cloth nappies are responsibly handled when they need to be retired. Did you know that in the near future, today’s cotton nappy insert could become tomorrow’s nappy cover fabric?

FAQ

Product Information

Botanic Baby Nappies

Botanic Baby reusable cloth nappy prefolds are a highly absorbent, multi-layered alternative to disposable diapers. In addition to the nappies we have used for the last 8 years, we have launched an Australian Made collection.

They are able to be cleaned to AS4146-2000 hospital-grade standards, and can withstand being thermally sanitised at 90 degrees for up to 80 commercial washes.

Our cloth nappy prefolds fit into specially made covers that grow with the baby as it moves from the newborn and infant developmental stages through toddlerhood. We know better than anyone just how fast babies grow (and that parents need a way to keep up), so we developed our nappy covers with both you and the environment in mind. It's all part of our mission to maximize the lifespan of each and every reusable cloth nappy we manufacture. 

They can be used with a snappi (grip closure), or can be folded and inserted into the cover. More than one reusable nappy can also be used as doublers for extra absorbency at night. Either way, the adjustable grip closure is essential for getting the most use out of our cloth nappies. 

Each of our modern cloth nappies are made with 100% organic cotton twill-layered to quilt. As an Australian-owned company, Botanic Baby sources only the finest cotton that is also of commercial-grade quality. We know it's soft, absorbent, and durable because we wash it — again and again and again.

Common Folds

Botanic Baby Nappy Covers

Botanic baby nappy covers are available in two sizes: newborn (2-6 KG) and one size fits most (4-16KG). They are crafted to adjust as your baby grows by adjusting the snaps in the font panels. The modern cloth nappy cover is completely reusable unless heavily soiled.  

Simply wipe and leave to dry, alternating your nappy covers with new prefolds. You can perform multiple nappy changes for each cover, making them highly economical. The covers work with multiple cloth nappy insert types, including nappy prefolds, pad inserts, and compostable nappy pads.

Our nappy covers provide side leakage protection using gussets, which allow for secure closure around your baby's legs. The elasticated back and stretch fabric also ensures a good fit around the waist, and the cover has a front pocket to hold the prefold and prevent tummy leaks or insert movement. 

The laminated waterproof fabric is available in multiple colours. Browse through our nappy covers today to pick out the perfect one! 

 

Botanic Baby Wipes

One of the most used items for looking after your little one, whether it is at change, play, feed time is Wipes.   We have done extensive research and have developed a ribbed wipe that performs through its absorbency and the architected gentle waves of the textile help to pick up stuck on mess. 

Our wipes come in 2 sizes.  Standard and Large both suitable to use in your existing pop up wipes dispenser or you can buy a wipes pack with a dispenser to reuse.
