How do I wash my diapers?

1. Make sure any solid "stuff" is already out of the diapers and liners before you throw it in the washer.
2. Pre-wash the diapers (short cycle) in warm water using the recommended brand and amount of detergent. Check here.
3. Heavy Duty (longest cycle) warm/cold wash with proper detergent amount.

For those who prefer a more visual explanation, check out our video or snazzy infographic.

*When it comes to detergent, we realize not one size fits all. You may need/want something other than Tide due to allergies/sensitivities or other personal reasons, but we want to make sure that whatever you choose to use is cloth diaper safe. We use Fluff Love University's resources as they have compiled their vast knowledge of cloth diaper laundry in one place. They have a great detergent index which shows what IS and IS NOT cloth safe.

Happy laundering!

How do I dry my diapers?

Short Answer: Line or hang dry the diaper shells and covers when possible, because we love the environment and do want to pay extra electricity bills.
‍
Longer Answer: As ecophiles, we would recommend that you line or hang dry our cloth diapers after each wash. But we have families and tight schedules and amazing dryers, too. So if you put our liners in the dryer use the tumble dry setting with medium heat. We recommend that our diapers covers or diaper shells not be put in the dryer, if possible. This is to ensure that the PUL (Polyurethane Laminate) lining which is heat bonded on the inside of the outer layer of our shell (read it again if not clear) is not eroded. The PUL is what makes our diapers waterproof and the less heat it is exposed to the longer it will stay bonded to the fabric. If you absolutely have to put the diaper shells or diaper covers in the dryer do so at a low to medium heat. If you are drying the diapers shells and liners together, remove the diaper shells from the dryer after 10-20 minutes. From our experience, the diaper shells dry out far more quickly as compared to the liners.

How do I snap and unsnap cloth diapers?

Here's a video by Mohammed, Chief Doo-Doo Officer at Lil Helper explaining how to take care of the snaps. Enjoy.

Why should I choose cloth diapers as compared to disposables?

In short, cloth is better for your kid’s tush, better for the environment, and better for your wallet. We’ve got a more in depth breakdown here.

How many Lil Helper cloth diapers should I buy?

Here is our video explanation and our quick infographic explanation. For those with a little more time, read on ahead.

Our diaper covers are designed to allow parents to use it multiple times during diaper changes. Only the soiled or wet insert is replaced with a fresh one. Instead of buying more diapers, you save money and reduce your laundry by buying more inserts. You can interchange any diaper with any insert we sell.
‍
So, I assume you want to do a laundry load every 2-3 days. A newborn is expected to go through 8-12 diaper changes a day- lets average it out to 10 diaper changes a day. This is the maximum number of times you will change your child, hence this is the worst case scenario. As your child gets older, you will need fewer diaper changes.
‍
You can reuse the Lil Helper diaper cover at least twice before putting it for a wash. Thus, each day you would need 6 diaper covers with 10 pairs of inserts. We have conveniently set up a Day Pack for you which has enough diapers, extra inserts + accessories for 1 full day of cloth diapering needs.
‍
After two days, you'll have 12 soiled diaper covers and 20 soiled insert sets. End of 2 days, you would have 2 dirty Day Packs.

While you are laundering the soiled diapers you'll still have 6 clean diaper covers and 10 sets of fresh inserts or 1 full day pack. For three days you would need 18 diapers (each diaper comes with a pair of charcoal inserts) and an additional 12 inserts, which is basically 3 Day Packs.You could get a few more diapers just to give you a little bit of cushion. For the fourth day, assuming you've washed and dried the diapers on the third night you'll have your stash clean and ready for another round of (ab)use.
