Kaitkati's Nappy Lady has finished her 10-day country wide tour to promote the use of cloth nappies over disposables.

More than 100 mothers signalling on Facebook that they were attending kept a jam-packed Grindz Café on First Ave full of young guests ready to win baby booty this week.

Katikati nappy lady Kate Meads and support person Denise Coy finish the last leg of a 10-day country-wide tour to support International Cloth Nappy Week in their home city Tauranga.

Kate's ‘Mums Secret' team began their journey on April 1 hiding nappies in towns from Whangarei to Queenstown to give mothers a chance to experience the benefits of cloth nappies for themselves.

Tauranga mother Lynne Symons hadn't used cloth nappies with her two-year-old daughter Ellena Graves, but she plans to with her next child.

'The high cost of disposables and having them fill my rubbish bin each week is why I want to change – hopefully I can be a bit more organised next time and use cloth nappies instead,” she says.

Mount Maunganui mother Nicole Reweti has been using cloth nappies on her one-year-old daughter Arlie Reweti since she was two months old.

'It saves so much money and it is good for the environment – I heard about them from my anti-natal group,” says Nicola.

She believes there is a cloth nappy out there for every child.

'There are loads of different kinds but you will find the right one for your baby,” says Nicola.

She has used the same 14 one-size fits-all cloth nappies 'which go in the wash with Arlie's clothes after a separate rinse cycle” for the last 10 months.

It is this experience with the product that Kate hopes mothers will gain from being gifted one of the 700 cloth nappies given out during the week.

'A big thing when mums look at purchasing cloth nappies is the cost – they see it as a barrier so we're trying to overcome it by showing how much they save by investing in one of these nappies.”

Kate says the cloth nappy message is being well-received with mothers being excited to try them.

'Receiving a free nappy, they had a chance to enjoy it without the expense – we've had mums so grateful they've been in tears.”

Close to 100 mothers are swimming with knowledge from Tauranga's event while also Auckland saw 100 mothers attend, Wellington 80, Christchurch 70 – and thousands greeted the Nappy Lady in their home towns.

'We've seen unbelievable numbers, people have loved it and we've had so much fun,” says Kate.

Prizes totalling $50,000 were given away along with the 700 cloth nappies.

Kate says using one cloth nappy each day stops 365 nappies going to landfill per baby per year.

'If every mum did that it would equate to one million nappies not going to landfill every week.”

'It's a really humbling experience and we couldn't have done it without the sponsorship we've had,” says Kate.
