About
I started using cloth nappies when my son was 10 weeks old and quickly fell in love with them; the fun prints, the cute bum, knowing less disposables will go to landfill are great aspects, even washing them hasn’t deterred my enthusiasm.
Now my boy is a big boy who weighed just shy of 28lb by 9 months old and I could see him rapidly outgrowing these beautiful nappies. As it turns out I was right! He soon became a 17kgs, 2.5 years old and long since outgrown his birth to potty nappies.

When I initially looked at the next size up I found there was much more limited choice available, they are more expensive and seem to rarely come up for sale second hand. There are a handful of places you can hire bigger nappies but they are few and far between and even less that post. If you want to try new or excellent condition ones you are completely out of luck.
This inspired me to start up a business hiring out excellent condition second hand nappies, initially for those that weigh between 35-100lbs.Now we have kits from newborn through to adults.

Over the first year of business I have grown from around 40 nappies and a couple of kits to over 200 nappies, with many combination of day and night nappies, mini and full time hire kits. In 2021 I expanded to include 3 newborn, 3 birth to potty hire kits and 2 adult hire kits to help people at ALL stages of their cloth journey.
Now in 2022 I have brought out my own range of reusable products Orion's Cloth Nappies, including three sizes of all in one cloth pull-ups and large changing mats for the growing person, because we firmly believe that all people should have access to well made, bright, fun prints in products they need, no matter their age, shape or size.
I love being able to support people at any age and stage of needing cloth and breaking the image that they are only for infants and over time we plan to expand to larger sizes and products to suit anyone who needs them.
