SmartNappy: The Diaper that Supports Reusable AND Disposable Diaper Inserts

Erin Sluka

It is NOT just a disposable diaper! The SmartNappy NextGen Hybrid Diaper System with Pocket-Sling can be re-used between washes and you can choose to use reusable inserts or disposable inserts. How handy is that? And you will melt over the designs. Just look at this denim design!

To start, it is soft and really has a great wrap so you know it is secure on baby which is great for comfort and to prevent leaks. Seriously, look at the denim with “pockets”. We only wish we could look as adorable in a pair of jeans!

Using the SmartNappy means we can reduce plastic pollution and landfill waste. This also means better protection because of the fabric (not plastic) design. There are two water resistant fabric layers and two elasticized barriers. The patented Pocket-Sling reduces risk of leak and blowout. 

Better yet, the Cotton Muslin gets softer with every wash. This “diaper” goes from reusable to disposable – just by changing the insert. Smart Nappy thought about dual use! The SmartNappy Disposable Inserts are the only to include the absorbent core and do not include a plastic liner. Some parents may use the disposable inserts when they are on the go, and the reusable when at home.

The EasyTab™ hook-and-loop fasteners mean this diaper is nothing but comfort on baby’s skin. The SmartNappy comes in 4 sizes so you get the right fit to prevent bulking and sagging. Washing is easy and the fit is always adjustable.

You can find SmartNappy right now on Amazon and make sure to also visit more about the SmartNappy NextGen Hybrid Diaper System with Pocket-Sling as well as other Amazing Baby products like swaddles, sleep sacks, sheets and more HERE.
