A day’s worth of diapers

A day’s worth of diapers

You get not one, not two, but FOUR of our wicked awesome Cloth Diapers. Our diapers are no-prep and ready to go right out of the package, so you can take “diaper prep” or “buy inserts” off the to-do list.

Tank Inserts

Tank Inserts

Okay, so it isn’t actually bullet proof. BUT it is lined with PUL, making it waterproof. This means that moisture stays in the inserts, letting you reuse covers and ensuring that there is no unwanted seepage. The Tank is like a diaper within a diaper.

How many diapers do I need

The question we get asked most often.. How many diapers do I need?

We’ve done the math! Babies average 10 diaper changes daily—newborns need more, older babies fewer. Don’t forget to factor in laundry! If daily laundry isn’t your thing, we recommend getting at least 2 packs—preferably 3. This lets you wash every other day while still having enough diapers to get through your routine. For a 3-day wash schedule, we suggest 4 day packs, so you’ll always have backups on hand.

Not sure if you can handle a ‘fluff bum’? Diapers so easy, anyone can use them.

No leaks. No rash. No kidding. Our Tank Cloth Diaper is award-winning for a reason, it combines waterproof protection, ultra-absorbent layers, and the genius of our two-piece Tank Insert Set. Designed by actual rocket scientists (yes, really), it keeps moisture in check for 12+ hours, even for heavy wetters. From nap time to night time, it’s all comfort, zero leaks.

Worried about leaks? Or rashes? Don’t. We’ve got you covered.

If you can snap a onesie, you can use a Lil Helper. The Tank’s one-size design fits from newborn to toddler with guide snaps to make perfect fit a no-brainer. There’s no stuffing or prepping—just snap the inserts in, put it on, and go. When it’s time to wash, rinse solids, toss it in the machine, and either hang or tumble dry. Easy on you, gentle on your kiddo, kind to the planet.

Hear ye, hear ye!! Lil Helper diapers DO NOT NEED TO BE PREPPED! Yes, you heard right, They do NOT need to be prepped! Every diaper and insert comes to you ready to be used with all the absorption you will ever need just waiting to wick away your baby’s wetness! (Cue happy dance…) We do recommend giving the new diapers a quick wash at least once in warm or cold water to get rid of any dust that may have accumulated from the warehouse or shipping. You will only need to use ½ the recommended amount of detergent for this short cycle as the diapers are already clean, you are just freeing them of dust.
You know when you buy your kid that super sought after toy and then get it home only to see the fine print that all the amazing accessories on the box aren’t actually included…. Meaning more money and lots of tears (from the kids and maybe even you!). We want to make your life as easy as possible, that is why all our diapers come with a cover AND inserts. So when you purchase a Lil Helper Diaper you get a diaper cover and a tank insert set. Meaning, you get the whole diaper so it’s ready to use without any extra purchases. How's that for easy?
Like peanut butter and Jam, bacon and eggs, or moms and coffee some of the best things come in twos. We designed our diaper with two inserts to give you more flexibility in customizing absorption. You would use the small liner by itself when the baby is under 3-4 months. When the baby grows older then you can use the large liner in tandem with the small one. This gives you customizable absorption as your baby grows.
Unsnapping your diapers and inserts properly will extend their lifespan and keep the snaps in good shape. Here’s a video by Mohammed, Chief Doo-Doo Officer at Lil Helper explaining how to take care of the snaps. Enjoy.
I can almost categorically tell you that your child will not need any diaper creams whatsoever when using our diapers. But even if you were to use diaper creams, here is a good reason why you shouldn't be using any creams. The same impermeable layer of waterproof protection that the diaper rash cream forms on your child's bum is also transferred on the cloth diaper making it water-resistant. Moisture won't be absorbed readily if you use rash creams on any cloth diaper, not only Lil Helper. If the diaper cannot absorb pee or poo then it will leak. We suggest avoiding all creams… yes even coconut oil. The icing on the cake is that ultimately with cloth there is less need for the creams anyways. We change more often reducing wetness and you avoid any of the harmful chemicals in disposables that may also cause irritation on our little ones tushie. Click here if you want to know more!
