Initial purchase - what you need

By Alexandra Schwager - zerohero.ch
You've opted for mindful and natural cloth nappy changing and are ready to buy your own nappies. But how many do you really need? I recommend buying a few nappies too many rather than too few, so you can save yourself stress in everyday life.

Depending on the system, the purchase costs are higher or lower and can also be adjusted to your own budget thanks to the great second-hand exchanges on Facebook, e.g. the sales group from Stoffwindelverein Schweiz can be easily adapted to your own budget.

Of course, you don't have to choose just one system. Many families combine the different systems to suit their individual needs. For example, many use pocket or all-in-one nappies for daycare or external carers and another system for at home. The world of modern cloth nappies is now so big that it can quickly become overwhelming, especially at the beginning. To help you find the right system for you and your individual family situation, I always recommend a consultation. It will make the initial purchase easier for you and save you from making the wrong purchase.

If you don't want to put everything together yourself, there are some suppliers who sell ready-made sets or economy packages.

Costs and number of accessories

Here you will find an overview of things that I recommend as accessories. These things are not essential, but make everyday cloth nappy life much easier.

I hope you enjoy browsing and shopping. And don't forget: Always wash new absorbent material well so that the absorbency can unfold!
