As a parent, preparing for your baby’s first trip to the beach can feel exciting—and a bit overwhelming. It's important to protect your babies delicate skin with a Sun Hat, Rash Vest and one essential item that can make a world of difference is a Reusable Swim Nappy. Choosing the right swim nappy ensures your baby stays comfortable, protected, and mess-free in the water. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about reusable swim nappies, and everything else you need to get your baby ready for a day at the beach!
Do Swim Nappies hold wee?
Reusable swim pants are designed for the containment of poos only. Normal swimwear offers no protection against wees whereas single-use swim pants would hold water and swell up.
How do swim nappies work?
Just pull on and prepare to plunge! When you head to the beach, a Revolutionary Reusable Swim Nappy is the only item your baby needs. No extra protection is required.
Can you Reuse Swim Nappies?
After you're out of the water, rinse your swim nappy and store it for up to 3 days in our Out & About Wet Nappy Bag before washing. Pop them in your machine along with your reusable nappies and wash at 40°C. Finally, air dry or tumble dry on low.
