Which insert style is right for your baby?

One of the most important parts of choosing a cloth diapering system, is choosing the best cloth diaper insert. There are so many different styles and textiles to choose from, it can be hard to sift through all the noise and decide what will work best for your families unique needs. We're here to help! 
Essentials — Bamboo Viscose Wipes as Newborn Inserts

For newborns we often recommend using reusable bamboo terry baby wipes rather than one size bamboo terry cloth diaper inserts. The best cloth diaper insert for newborn use tend to be lightweight and shorter in overall length. This makes our 8 and 10 inch bamboo terry baby wipes a great option for the tiniest babies.

Note that we do not currently offer a specific newborn sized insert at Kinder. We believe in selling you products that will work harder for you longer, and a bamboo terry wipe will support your cloth diaper stash longer than a tiny newborn insert.

Best Cloth Diaper Insert for:

  • Newborn Inserts: The trim and flexible nature of our bamboo terry wipes makes it a great option for newborn babies. This is our most popular newborn insert option at Kinder.
  • Boosting: When paired with another insert style our bamboo wipes make great boosters for older babies and toddlers.
  • Wipes: When you're done using your bamboo terry wipes as cloth diaper inserts, they'll be perfect for wiping your baby during diaper changes.

What makes our absorbency system better than other cloth diaper brands?

Kinder's unique color coded cloth diaper insert system is praised by families for being easy to use and reliable for both day and night wear. While other brands are prone to baconing and shrinking — Kinder boasts and insert line up that dries flat for peak performance. Kinder Cloth Diaper Co. reusable cloth diaper inserts stand out from other brands due to their exceptional quality and thoughtful design.

One of the key features that distinguish Kinder inserts is their composition. Unlike many other brands that use microfiber, Kinder inserts are made entirely from fibers, such as bamboo viscose, cotton and hemp blends which provide superior absorbency and breathability.

The fiber composition choices make Kinder's inserts ideal for sensitive skin and reduces the risk of compression leaks, a common issue with microfiber style cloth diaper inserts. 

Additionally, Kinder inserts are designed to be trim and less bulky, ensuring a comfortable fit for babies without adding unnecessary bulk to the diaper.

Another notable aspect of Kinder's cloth diaper inserts is their versatility. They are designed with snaps that allow them to be easily attached to other inserts or directly to diaper covers, providing flexibility in how they can be used. This feature enables parents to customize the absorbency of their diapers according to their baby's needs, whether it's for daytime use or as a booster for nighttime protection.
