Cloth Nappy Inserts & Wash Bags

Designer Bums Cloth Nappy Inserts are an essential part of a flexible and reliable reusable nappy system. Designed to boost absorbency and customise performance, our inserts allow you to adapt your nappies to suit your baby’s changing needs — from light daytime use through to overnight and heavier wetting.

Made from premium natural fibres including custom-milled bamboo and cotton, Designer Bums inserts are designed to be gentle on delicate skin while delivering excellent absorbency and durability.

Why Use Cloth Nappy Inserts?
As babies grow, their wetting patterns change. What works for a newborn may not be sufficient for an older baby, toddler, or overnight use. Cloth nappy inserts allow you to increase absorbency without needing to replace your entire nappy stash.

Using the right inserts can help reduce leaks, extend the time between changes, and improve overall nappy performance — particularly for daycare, longer outings, and night-time use.

Designed to Work with Your Cloth Nappies
Designer Bums inserts are designed to pair seamlessly with our Modern Reusable Cloth Nappies, creating a customisable system that grows with your child.

They are also compatible with our Newborn & Premature Reusable Cloth Nappies, and with most other cloth nappy brands.

Premium Materials & Absorbency Options
Designer Bums Cloth Nappy Inserts are made from ultra-absorbent custom-milled bamboo/cotton and other carefully selected natural fibres. Bamboo is known for its excellent absorbency, while cotton adds structure and durability for repeated washing.

Our inserts are available in a range of shapes and thicknesses — including snake, rectangular, anchor and trifold styles — so you can choose the right option for your baby’s needs and your preferred nappy setup.

Ideal for Night-Time & Heavier Wetters
For overnight use or heavier wetters, additional absorbency is often required. Using multiple inserts or higher-capacity styles allows you to build a reliable night-time setup without compromising comfort.

Many families pair inserts with our Large Reusable Cloth Nappies, particularly when extra absorbency is needed for overnight or extended wear.

Wash Bags for Easier Laundry
Wash bags are a simple but effective addition to your cloth nappy laundry routine. They help keep smaller items contained during washing, reduce tangling, and make transferring clean items from machine to line or dryer easier.

Using wash bags can also help protect inserts and other accessories from excessive wear, extending their lifespan over time.

Bundle Discounts & Building Your Stash
If you’re building or expanding your insert collection, purchasing multiple inserts can be a cost-effective option. Designer Bums offers auto-applied discounts on qualifying insert quantities (where available), making it easier to stock up for daycare, travel, or a growing family.

A Sustainable Way to Boost Performance
Reusable cloth nappy inserts help reduce reliance on disposable products while allowing you to adapt your nappies as your baby grows. Designed to be washed and reused again and again, they support a more sustainable approach to everyday parenting.

Thoughtfully designed, durable and gentle on skin, Designer Bums Cloth Nappy Inserts are a practical addition to any reusable nappy system.
