I wasnt sure about this brand of cloth nappy because ive only always used applecheeks and itti bitti. Quality was great. Theyre very simple to use and nice and absorbent for my heavy wetter. I would definitely purchse more cushies and recommend to other mamas looking into trying cloth nappies
I love these nappies, i use them when in home not when going out as they don’t cause nappy rash or the cost of buying disposable ones, its inexpensive, but only down side is making sure you have enough for your baby. Otherwise best cloth nappy
We’ve used multi-fit mcns from the start with my son and Kushies are one of the brands we use. Multi-fits are so cheap in the long run, we spent less than $300 to see us through to toilet training. The nappies look cute, we never have a problem with nappy rash as the baby’s skin can breathe and washing is easy once you get the hang of it. Another benefit is that we have never had a pooh explosion or leak, whereas friends who use disposables seem to get that happen quite regularly. I’d definitely use Kushies again and recommend them!
I had never used anything but disposable nappies and thought they were far easier and much more convenient to use than cloth nappies, but was actually given one of these in a hamper at my baby shower, and one day used it on a whim.. and have never looked back, just as easy and convenient as a disposable, baby has never had any nappy rash (that is why I chose disposables originally)
Plus they have super cute designs. Super absorbent and leak free!
Is it stil possible to participate in this review? I am a new mum of 2 weeks and using various modern and traditional nappies including a pocket nappy, flats, prefolds and all in twos. Brooke
We moved house lucky my mail was redirected!
The nappy is a little bit tight on my 21month old daughter the next size up would have been perfect.
Im loving the nappy and liners though, its good that these can be used in a dryer as i noticed that depending on the weather they take a little bit longer to dry due to the inbuilt liner which i think is awesome, i like the fact that it already has the waterproof cover and they are so soft on our little girls bum must be because they are organic!
The nappy liners are great too but we live on a property and can not flush these into the septic tank which i really wanted to try so we went to a friend house in town just to see how they went being flushed..so much easier!
I would purchase more of these nappies they are one of the best cloth nappies ive used so far and it came in handy when i ran out of disposables and living out of town it saved me from a huge mess while we went to buy some nappies!
Kushies in the bush!!
Highly reccommend these to any parent or mother to be..love it i need to buy a bigger size so my daughter can continue to wear these and be comfortable in her correct size,.
I think Kushies are worth the mess of having to wash cloth nappies they really are great!
Love love these nappies! Very easy to use and wash with gorgeous designs and a great slim fit! Not bulky like some mcn’s. I would def recommend these to other mums! Once you try them you will never turn back!

i wasnt to sure bout this but i loved them and cant find anything wrong with them. easy and very easy to use, i have told my friends and family bout them and also have brought them for my nince as she is ahving her 1st child, so do ur self a favor and go buy them thanx for reading
I used these for a short time and I spent so much time cleaning and changing it was to hard with a newborn. I like the disposables even though they are not as environmentally friendly.
My daughter is due early august and we have been looking around at so many brilliant ideas, but this is one I think is fantastic, especially when there is not much bin space,……a bin full of dirty nappies when it only gets emptied every two weeks……….40 degree summer days……..I need say no more….I do think it is brilliant though that something has come up to meet the problem of disposable nappies and the cost…..well done.
I love clothe nappies. These nappies are easy to use, don’t leak or smell and compact. Some nappies I find bulky and the baby looks like it can’t move properly. You just have to make sure you have enough of a supply while washing and drying. I found at the beginning I was concerned with the cost of buying a complete set. I now understand why as my nappies have lasted me through four children, buying new ones here and there was less expensive than buying disposables each week.
I hear people say gosh how can you do it? But that’s how our mums did it and it worked well for them, so I can’t see the big deal about people doing it now. I would recommend people hire some and try them out because they really are great. Then invest in a starter pack and you will never look back!

It’s so much cheaper that buying disposable nappies and if your baby is prone to nappy rash these are the way to go. The designs are supper cute and they are so easy to wash, you just need a few on hand to make life easy on yourself. Best modern cloth nappies I’ve used by far!
I am not chosen to review this Kushies Ultra- lite Washable Nappies so I bought it. This is a great product with cute design, no leak, comfortable to wear, only need to wash and use again. I would continue buy this product and recommend for my friends that have babies.
omg these nappies are soo good, I love that I can just throw them in the washing machine and don’t have to go out and buy new ones, being made out of material and being machine washable they are actually really good quality
and that is just what the kids need!
Although I wasn’t chosen for this review I have bought 2 dozen of them for my granddaughter and I got to say my life would have been so much easier had I had these for my 4 children, my gosh what a fantastic product.
Light weight yet ultra absorbent, completely machine washable and able to be tumbled dry, just awesome!
The amount I`ve bought will last her her entire nappy wearing years and than be used again for the next granny, if that’s not value for money nothing is!!
I hate using disposable but did so for traveling. These have changed my mind as they can be washed and less bulk then nappies plus leak proof these have now replaced the other nappies for my two younger children. The fact I can use them on either sex is great too. Takes up less hanging space on the line the cloth nappies. My ten year can change her siblings without having to fold the nappy for use. Even have my older sons doing the changes.
I didn’t use non disposable with my first son but did with my second and was really surprised how easy and good they were to use, and I was saving the environment too! I didn’t use this brand (but wish I did, they are soooo cute!). No probs with nappy rash and they were so simple to use and wash. Would be great to see more non-disposable being used by mums
I used the same set of 20 Kushies nappies for all 3 of my kids – 2 boys and a girl and the nappies still have life in them! They are great from birth to toddler and the night nappies are a godsend. I would recommend these nappies to anyone looking for an all-in-one re-usable nappy as they really do work!! And they are comfortable 🙂
I quite like the trim fit of this MCN. Most I currently use are quite bulky and cumbersome for a baby trying to roll and move about. I like the designs as well. The only gripe I have is that it doesn’t last us overnight. I use a bamboo lay in insert to correct this and al is good
I have never used washable nap pies with my older 3 kids but I took the plunge with my last son and I just loved them it’s a big out lay at the start but well worth the money as you will be saving on buying nap pies each week.
I was first introduced to MCNs when my second was 8 months old. With 2 in nappies it was getting rather expensive. We now have 3 in nappies and all MCNs. I thought cloth was too hard but for a little bit of effort its a lot cheaper then feeding the rubbish bin 50 cent pieces (price of a huggies nappy) and its better for my childrens skin, no nappy rash, and better for the environment too.

Genius Beach And Pool Tips Every Aussie Mum Should Know
Summer beach and pool days are core childhood memory creators, but getting the kids out the door, not so much! From wrestling wriggly toddlers into rashies to arguing with teens trying to dodge sunscreen and cramming half the house into the car, the exhaustion can kick in before we’ve even set foot on the sand!
But there are some very clever tips that will make even the most stressful summer days smooth sailing – and the Mouths of Mums community know them all! Which is why we asked our mums for their hints, hacks and tips – from sand removal to stress-free sunscreen application (we’re going to introduce you to the fabulous new Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Sprays that will make your life so much easier).
You’ll want to take note before you next hit the beach or pool!
Pack Smart, Not Big
Do you feel like you take waaayyy too much when you head to the beach or pool, and then you seem to forget a couple of key things that would have made life so much easier?
Our Mouths of Mums community swear by this fab list of essentials which should be in every mum’s beach kit, and
A plastic bag for wet towels and bathers
A dry bag for clothes
A bucket or basin to wash off sandy toys
A ‘clean zone’, sand-free blanket or mat for eating and changing
A pop-up tent for changing
Waterproof phone case
Talcum powder to get sticky, wet sand off little feet. Just pop it on and brush it off – it’s magic!
A hand-held car vac for quick sand cleanups!
“The amount of times my kids have gone home in wet chafing swimming costumes because they didn’t want anyone to see them changing is unbelievable! Our pop up tent has been life changing! We all drive home comfy and cosy! Lastly, a sand proof picnic blanket is so perfect for a sand reprieve! The sand literally falls right through them!” – MoM Member
Get Safety Sorted Before The Fun Starts
It’s pretty hard to get the kids’ attention once you’re at the beach or pool, so the safety talk should really start at home. Our mums recommend chatting to the kids about:
Swimming between the flags at the beach
Setting a meeting spot in case anyone gets separated
Sunscreen: Always apply sunscreen 20 minutes before heading outdoors. And set alarms to reapply every two hours throughout the day. Reapply immediately after swimming or using a towel.
Applying sunscreen at the start of the day and regularly throughout is so important, but it usually causes the most arguments. Kids don’t want to stop, teens assure you they ‘did it already’.
That’s where Banana Boat’s new SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ actually makes a difference. The iconic sunscreen brand has just launched its newest product, which turns sunscreen time into something simple and fun. It’s an easy and convenient way to tick off sun safety – which isn’t always easy when it comes to kids!
Why Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Spray makes sunscreen easier
The Smart Control Spray gives you the choice of a short spray for tricky spots or a long spray for larger areas like those wiggly little legs, making application simple and convenient. It also sprays from any angle – just spray, rub in and you’re ready for playtime.
Clear, lightweight formula that absorbs fast and with no greasy feel.
SPF50+ broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and 4-hour water resistant.
Kids SmartMist™ is mild and gentle for kid’s sensitive skin, fragrance free and contains Aloe and Vitamin E.
Sport SmartMist™ features high-performance Powerstay Technology™, designed to stay on through sweat and water.
Banana Boat SmartMist makes those important sunscreen stops much easier and effective and is perfect for active Aussie families this summer.
Prep & Time It Perfectly
There’s nothing worse than kids itching to get to the beach while you’re trying to remember everything you need to pack – it makes everyone frazzled. So get prepped early – even the night before. And time your departure to minimise the amount of time in the car (and the amount of times the kids ask ‘are we there yet?!’.
“Packing the car the night before, always a huge help getting the bucket, cabana, and bag of spare clothes/towels in the boot. We usually leave straight after breakfast to avoid heavy traffic as the beach is an hour away.” – MoM Member
Pack Smart Snacks
Snacks are a must, but it can be tricky to know what’s going to survive a hot, Aussie summer day – and what’s good for hungry tummies. Here’s what our mums recommend:
Chopped fruit
Crackers
Boiled eggs
Drink bottles that have been frozen overnight
“We have a few allergies/intolerances, so being prepared with food is helpful and saves us the search and some money. I pre-chop carrots, cucumber, apples, boiled egg, in a handy separating container, a packet of chips, dip, and bring water bottles. If it’s a longer day planned at the beach I’ll bring lunch too.” – MoM Member
A chaos-free beach day. Yes please!
You don’t need a military-style plan to enjoy a sunny day out. A beach trolley, some prep, and an easy sunscreen like SmartMist™ are enough to help things run calmly – or at least calm-ish!
Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, a hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen. Reapply frequently every 2 hours or more often when sweating and immediately after swimming or using a towel. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure.

So happy to share the magic of baby powder after a messy day at the beach or park! It’s been a game changer for us.
Not quite as elaborate as the pop up tent, but a large towel with a hood has been great to discretely change out of bathers! It’s my husband’s go to now haha
My biggest tip is to be very clear who’s watching the kids, especially when they’re in the water. Like, actually verbally hand over and make sure it’s acknowledged if you’re going somewhere (like to the bathroom). That can definitely save lives, but also save panics about lost kids in crowded spaces.
Some really good tips here! I had no idea about the talcum powder hack – who would have known! That is amazing and I will definitely try it next time we go to the beach! It is definitely worthwhile getting things ready the night before though, especially if you want to leave before midnight lol.
