Help our CC is now banning cloth nappies as of March

[*Beema*]

Thankyou for your feedback so far girls, keep it coming

OHS? Are you serious? What bs! the daycare that I was going to send ds to said no to cloth coz "it's too much work and dangerous"... what? you take the nappy off, put it in the dry pail - so NO soaking put the lid back on... With sposies, you take the nappy off and put it in the bin. The only difference is that cloth is going into a dry bucket that I take home.

Def find out more and ask LOTS of questions of management!

Good luck!

Definitely hardly any more effort at all, I provide a wet bag for the nappies and as requested each dirty nappy goes into it's own bag in the wet bag, so there is no "contamination" putting additional soiled nappies in the wet bag.

I heard this too!!! Whats going on?!?!?! Isn't everyone about been eco friendly these days??/ I don't understand why they think it's an OHS issue

Really, which state in the Centre in that you have heard about it, I am wondering where this decision is coming from....

I think it would come down to a contaminated waste/health and safety issue?

I think I have that covered with the wet bags/and additional bags for each nappy?

You could ask them what they used to do back before disposables were more common...GL

Exactly, they used to offer a full cloth service but only stopped it as not enough people were using it, I would have if it was running when DD started.

Beema,

I think Gigi has done a fair bit of research into cloth nappies at CC so maybe PM her or see if she pops in?

Good luck, that's poor form on the part of the CC.

Thankyou for that lb, Gigi has helped me other with some cloth nappy suggestions int he past and has ben thoroughly helpful, I will track her down and see what info she has, thankyou for the suggestion

I think it is pretty poor form too on the CCC
