Organic Cotton Muslin Wrap
To swaddle your baby:
1. Lie the Muslin Wrap on a flat surface.
2. Fold down one of the corners about 20-30cm depending on the size of your baby.
3. Place your baby on the organic cotton wrap with its head on the edge of the folded side.
4. Tuck their arms to their sides and fold the left side over their body, tucking in the excess under their body.
5. Fold up the bottom corner and then fold over the right-hand side.
6. Tuck the remaining corner in so your baby is snug.
Note: Only swaddle babies that are not yet rolling over, and only lie your baby on their back. Please fully educate yourself on swaddling safely and ensure you have a safe sleeping surface prepared for your little one.
As a playmat:
1. Unroll your Muslin Wrap and place it flat on the floor.
2. Create a space play area clearing any potential hazards.
3. Let your baby play away! Great for tummy time, and you'll find that any toddlers around love identifying the shapes, animals, and vegetation.
As shade or cover for breastfeeding:
1. Clip onto the pram (the Stainless Pegs come in very handy here) or drape over your body for privacy and/or to minimise distractions while breast or bottle feeding in public.
Reusable Wet Wipes
Use a small spray bottle filled with water or our Wet Wipe Spray to dampen the muslin.
Wipe as needed.
Put used wipes into a bucket until you have enough to wash. Wash on a hot cycle at 60º+ if you are using the wipes for bottoms.
No microplastics will enter the waterways during washing because they are made from natural fibre. Read more about this here.
The Reusable Wet Wipes work really well if you are using Reusable Nappies or are going to try your hand at Elimination Communication/EC (when you potty your baby from birth instead of relying just on nappies) - learn more about this here.
Wet Wipe Spray
Dampen the Reusable Wet Wipe, cloth, or toilet paper with Wet Wipe Spray.
Wipe as needed on bottoms, face, or hands.
Put used wipes into a bucket until you have enough to wash or flush the toilet paper.
Organic Cotton Changing Mats
1. Place the Reusable Changing Mat on the surface you will change your baby on. Clear the space of any potential hazards appropriate for your baby's age.
2. Place your baby on the Changing Mat, utilising the stash pocket for any wipes or small accessories.
3. Wash as required and according to the care label.
Note: Never leave your child unattended on a changing surface, and pay special attention to mobile babies.
Soft Baby Cloth

Prepare the bath for your baby
