    I used Happy Babes pockets for daycare. They're fairly cheap (so it didn't matter so much if one went missing), I could stuff them however I wanted with other inserts and they were velcro, so super easy for any cloth virgin. They were fine on DD and she has chunky thighs too.

    AIO's are best because we can only use a cover once (well thats the policy here, because the covers are 'contaminated' as they have 'touched' the urine). I like Itti
    Bitti's, but then we use cloth at home so I'm ok with anything hahaha
    Velcro/hook and loop would definitely be easier for non-cloth users.

    Thanks everyone

    I took her swaddlebee pockets today (they were the only ones clean) and they seemed to do ok. Of course it was the day that fred did 3 poops so I felt so sorry for the girls. They washed them out for me which I told them they didn't need to do. Evidently it was the first time they have used cloth at that day care so I am so impressed with them doing so well

    I've been thinking ittis or BBH pettites... but pockets would be easier cause I can make extra inserts for them at anytime. Ok, need to get them this weekend, I'll let you know how I go

    I've always sent Green Kids pockets with bamboo inserts for my kids.

    I always preferred fitteds and covers when I worked in a cloth friendly place (which I don't currently. Sigh) But anything with velcro was really very easy and fast, so a winner with everyone. Actually I used to fight to be the one to change the cloth bums, even when it wasn't my turn

    Pockets, as someone suggested are a great idea - anything with boosters that fold out and up and in and what not have the potential to be quite confusing to some staff. With pockets they need not even know there is an insert. Maybe the Bonnibuns pockets? Or even AIOs? They're gorgeous, and I think she might do velcro on request.

    Good luck! And yay for cloth in childcare!
