Packing a nappy bag you can find things in

Small pouches, a fixed place for everything and a list on the inside of the flap.

A black bag and baby things laid out on a table

For months our bag was a black hole. Then we gave everything a pouch and a place, and leaving the house got faster.

The pouches

  • Change: nappies, wipes, cream and a folding mat.
  • Food: a snack, a spoon, a bib and a bottle of water.
  • Spare: one full change of clothes in a zip bag that doubles as a laundry bag.
  • You: keys, phone charger, plasters and something to eat.

The habit

Refill the bag as soon as you get home, not when you are about to leave. Future you will be grateful.
