Why Cloth Diapers?
Cloth diapers are eco-friendly and often more gentle on a baby's sensitive skin. But to keep them in top condition, proper cleaning is essential.
Pre-Washing Rituals
Before you toss those diapers in the wash, shake off any solids into the toilet and give them a good rinse. For heavily soiled diapers, consider soaking them for a few hours in a diaper pail with water and a bit of baking soda.

Using a mild detergent is key to prolonging the life of your cloth diapers. First Editions Co’s plant-based laundry sheets are free of harsh chemicals, making them perfect for your little one's sensitive skin.
Washing Instructions
Use a 'Heavy Duty' or 'Whites' cycle on your washing machine for best results. Make sure to do an extra rinse at the end to ensure all detergent is washed away.
Drying Tips
Air-drying is the most gentle option for cloth diapers. If you're in a hurry, tumble drying on a low heat setting works, but avoid using fabric softeners as they can reduce absorbency.
Storage and Rotation
Once the diapers are clean and dry, fold them neatly and store them in a cool, dry place. Rotate your stock to ensure even wear and tear.
