Newborn Hire Kit YoYo Hire Kits are very popular. Around 20 kits are around New Zealand and Australia most months of the year and new ones are being made to keep up with the demand. The first few weeks are full on with changing baby around the clock. You will be making a huge saving using washable cloth nappies. I have kits containing Pocket Nappies, Kits containing Snap-In-Nappies, Kits containing Organic Nappies or you can have a mix. The kits contains 12 nappies with inserts and boosters, 4 covers and 12 washable liners.

Cost and Hire Time

$20.00 a week with a minimum hire of 8 weeks (8 weeks = $160.00) plus $12.50 pack & post. A returnable bond of $50 dollars will secure your hire. You are welcome to hire for a longer period.

Hire time can be extended, most parents choose 10 weeks, but 8 weeks is a minimum hire time. You will be very busy during that time. Around week 6 or 7 you may like to order you own nappy system giving me 2 weeks to get them made and posted to you, making it an easy change over.
I strive to get the kit to you around a fortnight before your due date. Payment starts from birth date as that is the easiest date to remember.

About the Hire Kit

Snap-in-Nappies fit from birth to toilet training. I will supply extra snap in inserts and boosters. Pocket Nappies are newborn size only. Organic nappies and covers are very small newborn and probably fit best for the first week. I also put in two prem size covers. As baby gets older and wets more, you would use more absorbency. By adding a doubler, or using two bamboo inserts will last longer on baby. You can place a washable liner next to baby for easy clean up. I also recommend a roll of flushable liners if you want Dad to be on the roster for changing baby.

I am often asked if the cloth nappies need to be washed after every change. Usually that is best as breast fed babies poop day and night, but if you use a doubler next to baby, and replace a wet one with a new one, you may get two changes from one nappy. This works well with prefolds and covers, rotating two covers if only wet. Air one while using the other.

Washing the Hire Kit

Please be diligent to tab the velcro hook back onto the velcro loop. It will keep your nappy is better condition and avoid lint getting into the velcro hook. Washing is more pleasant if you remove or unsnap the inserts, and rinse off. Soak in a bucket of warm soapy water until you have a bucket full. Tip off water and put thru a washing cycle using less wash powder than suggested on packet.

The PUL is very quick to dry so the nappies will have a quick turnaround when washed. I prefer they be line dry or clothes rack and don't get put in a clothes dryer. Inserts are fine to be put in clothes dryer.

Payment and Posting

When I receive your hire kit order, I send you payment details. Payment will secure your order for the date needed. The hire kit is quite bulky to post but well worth it for the extra absorbency.
