Is
it safe and hygienic to use a NANS nappy service?
|
|
 |
YES…all
NANS nappy services comply with strict NHS regulations, providing
you with soft, fresh, thermally disinfected nappies.
|
|
|
|
Surely
the water and energy used in the washing process is as bad as
using disposables? |
|
|
|
NO…believe
it or not, disposable nappies use up to five times more energy to
produce than cotton nappies including the washing process. The waste
from washing is relatively benign compared to the decomposition
of disposables.

|
Will my baby get nappy rash? |
|
|
|
Cotton
is breathable and cooler next to your baby's bottom than plastic
and paper. U.S. studies indicate that babies wearing disposables
get nappy rash five times more often than if they use professionally-laundered
nappies. Advertisers claim that a dry nappy means a healthy bottom,
but harmful bacteria multiply in these dry conditions, and bacteria
is the main cause of nappy rash!

|
|
What about smells? |
|
|
|
Unlike
disposables, cotton nappies do not trap unpleasant smells. Your
local nappy service also provides deodorised nappy bins to minimise
odour.
|
|
|
|
Will using a nappy service cost more? |
|
|
|
NO…the
cost of using a nappy service is comparable to using leading brand
disposables, but what about the cost to your children's future?
