9 of the Best Swim Nappies in Australia in 2024
Splash-Proof Fun with Swim Nappies in Australia
As we head into summer, visions of swimming lessons and days spent around the pool and down by the beach with family fill our heads. After a long and laborious winter, so many of us are ready to hit the beach and soak in a bit of sunshine! While your beach trolley and hooded towel are a must, there is no bigger essential for a baby on a summer’s day, than a swim nappy you can count on.
Whether you opt for reusable or single-use, finding a swim nappy you can count on is no mean feat! There are specific features you should look out for, to ensure you’re not going to be left with a leak (or explosion) of any kind while in the water!
What to look for in a swim nappy:
Proper Fit:
If a swim nappy doesn’t fit right, well - you’re setting yourself up for an embarrassing accident! A potentially stinky one at that!
Look for swim nappies that offer adjustability around your child's waist and thighs. This ensures a secure fit that can contain any potential surprises – whether it's a number two or even a number one!
Durable:
A good, hardworking swim nappy must be able to withstand a good soaking, vigorous kicking, and in the case of reusable swim nappies, many goes through the washing machine!
For this reason, a well-made, durable swim nappy is your best bet!
By considering these factors, you can enjoy splash-proof fun in the sun with peace of mind, knowing you've chosen the right swim nappy for your little one's water play.
