Wipes
Disposable wipes are really handy when out and about, and lots of people choose to use them at home for all nappy changes as well. Some parents find that their baby reacts to the soaps in disposable wipes, this is quite rare though. You can buy 'water wipes' which have no soaps or perfumes in them if you wish.
We recommend using cloth wipes, all our hire packs come with cotton wipes that can be thrown in the wash with your nappies. Just wet them with water from the tap, or put a pump bottle of water at your change table to wet them as you go. You can put some in a zip lock bag in your handbag and then you wont need to buy disposable wipes at all.
Its not necessary to make a spray for the wipes, water does a great job, but if you want that little bit extra cleaning power you will need these ratios:
1 TBSP (15mls) liquid baby soap (Eg. Castile soap, baby wash, whatever you like!)
1 TBSP (15mls) oil (Eg. Olive oil, coconut oil, baby oil, whatever you like!)
1 cup (250mls) water
Mix them all together and put them in a spray bottle, spray your cloth or straight on the bum!
Note: We don't recommend using essential oils, as there has been insufficient testing of these products in children under 2 years.
