Great for using when toilet training, easy to get on and come off, reusable if not wet, my girls will use again and again for the day if dry and its a great reward to have a dry nappy. But if they accidently wet themselves they go to the change table and grab a woollies once upon a time one over our other brand. That says something! 🙂

I have repurchased this product after trialling it out. My current brand is ALDI and Huggies and I now also use Woolworths Select once upon a time nappies also now. They are definitely great during the busy times of the day, easy to get in and out of and reusable when toddler is toilet training and nappy is dry. I have recommended the nappy to quite a number of people now and my cousin loves using them and will continue to use them.
Thanks Woolworths and Mouth of Mums for letting me review your products 🙂

I loved using these nappies. They have the absorbency & quality of the top end nappies without the hefty price tag. I used them on my 2.5 year old and never had a leak. I will definitely be buying them again and will recommend them to all my mummy friends.

Great for multiple children - Right kind of nappy!
Its great value especially when you have more than one in nappies. I have twin girls and twice the amount of nappies used then my first daughter. Having the right nappy, one that doesn’t leak during the day when they are at their busiest is what most mums are looking for. To have the peace and mind that your child is dry, comfy and enjoying their day without being wet and uncomfortable is what Woolworths select Once a Time Nappies is all about.

My friend absolutely loved the nappy pants for her daughter, she thought that they were so soft and had lots of padding to keep her daughter comfy. She had no leakages and was quite surprised with the stretchiness of the nappy. Since then she had bought Woolworths Select Once Upon a time Nappies and will continue to buy them.

I have just started using once upon a time nappies as i am struggling financially at the moment. I always use huggies or babylove because they have so much protection and mostly a good fit. After using the once upon a time nappies I realised they don’t last as long as the others they have less absorption andless protectiong

Woolworths Select Once Upon a Time nappies are fantastic value for money. They definitely compare extremely well to the more expensive brands especially with their triple layer technology and the double leg cuffs which isn’t something that is available across all brands.
Once Upon a Time nappies offer a wonderful fit which is secure, yet comfortable and doesn’t leave any impressions on the child’s skin from wear.
I am extremely happy with the quality of these nappies and would definitely recommend them as well as use them again.
Another thing which adds to the convenience of this product is that as it is a Woolworths item you can purchase them online and have them delivered along with your groceries. Whereas if you purchase a brand which is only available at one particular chain of supermarket which doesn’t offer online shopping nor delivery you don’t really have this option.
I highly rate Woolworths Select Once Upon a Time nappies, and truly appreciate the opportunity to trial this fantastic product thank you so very much!

My first impressions of these nappies were definitely proved wrong!
I’m using the 4kg-8kg pack and originally, I felt they looked cheap & not very absorbent. They’re great once on & don’t look too bulky like some brands do.
First night of wearing the nappies and my 11 week old slept more than 8 hours and we had no leaks!!
I don’t have a preference when doing my food shopping, but I will definitely buy these when shopping at Woolworths.

My 3 year old son it toilet trained during the day but not at night. We were really struggling getting him to keep a normal nappy on at night so I thought I would try nappy pants. These ones offered the best value for money and worked great. I’ll keep buying them as long as we need them.

I am always keen to find ways to save many so I tried these nappies on Miss A who was 8 months. They were too cheap not to try. Unfortunately they just weren’t a great fit for us. We experience leaks up the back and they left lots of red marks around Miss A’s chubby thighs. Not for us.

This was a baby shower gift. Tried it when bub was a newborn. Didn’t fit him well. Had to immediately change the brand. Not sure if it was because of our bub was a bit tiny. Overall a satisfactory product but don’t think I’ll buy in the future as I’m sticking with Aldi nappies.

I was so disappointed in the quality of the once upon a time nappies and nappy pants. They were so thin that I found one wee from my son was enough to soak through the material in the nappy and wet himself and his clothes. Nappy pants…up to 15kg, didn’t even fit my son. So small the ripped going on

They are a great price, but unfortunately I had nothing but problems. My son would wet right through them in just a daytime nap or even while I was holding him which meant that I got peed on. And the nappy pants, I bought the size that’s walker/ crawler 10-15 kg and they were that small that they ripped going into my 11.4 kg son. I much prefer their “little ones” brand.

I am so sad that they have decided to discontinue this brand of nappies and only keep the nappy pants. i don’t feel that nappy pants are the best value unfortunately. ALso, the one size fits all doesn’t seem to fit my bubs. On one they’re too big and fall down, on the other they’re too small and don’t stay up. Can’t win. Please bring back the nappies. They were hands down the best on the market.

I am so so disappointed that they appear to have gotten rid of these nappies and replaced them with nappy pants instead. Bring them back please!!!!

I am back!
My baby son was born 3rd January 2016, 6 days late, didn’t want to come, was too cosy inside… Anyways we have started using Once Upon A Time nappies again! Yes Again! After the positive outcome we’ve had with our twins, we’ve decided to give it a go with our Son. This time round we have had a few leakages at night, guessing can’t use for more than 8-10hours and maybe being a boy its different than girls? Not sure? Day nappy is fine, wee’s are fine, poo’s seem to leak, well ours do but maybe I had a weird batch or something. I still like them so giving them a go.

I found these nappies really good. I was given them by my sister in law as her son had gone up a size and I used them on my infant boy (4-6kg sizing) and they fit well, we had no leakage and was very happy with the quality and happy with the price too.

Having two young boys I am very aware of the cost of nappies! For this reason I have tried pretty much every product on the market. Unfortunately these do not stack up! My boys wee through these during the night, they also cause little heat rashes whereas other brands I use do not at all. I won’t use them again unless they change their style and material. Sorry just not a fan

Being a massive fan of snugglers for absorbancy, I tried once upon a time when snugglers werent available at my chemist, I loved the snug fit, the tabs were strong enough for him to not rip off and the absorption was fantastic! For the price its a budget saver! Will be purchasing and recommending this for sure

I like these nappies. My baby prefers Huggies, but I like these for when he isn’t feeling well, because he has numerous extra nappy changes, these are so much cheaper, and I feel less guilty for changing them so fast. Lol. They are quite good, though. We can’t expect a $5 pack of nappies to be in the same league as a $30 pack of nappies, but for the price… they’re fantastic! I recommend them for day use, but not so much for night. I find the legs to be much wider than similar sized Huggies, so accidents are inevitable over night. That said, my bub has skinny legs. 😀

I bought Once upon a time nappies when they were discounted to try them out and I was quite surprised about the quality despite the fact that they were so much cheaper than Huggies and Babylove. Although they appear to be less padded and absorbent, we never had any leakage issues at all. I would buy them again and recommend to other mothers.

Comparing nappies was a big thing for me, trying to find the perfect fit to mold to my daughters chubby body was needed to avoid many many poo explosions. I found that although at a cheap price they just felt cheap.. Whereas Coles are cheap still, but the quality was much higher. The absorption was good, but could of been better.

The Woolworths Select Once Upon a Time nappies would have to be one of my favourite nappies. I’ve used brand nappies and found that the Woolworths nappies are equivalent if not better than them. All nappies leak occasionally but I found these to be more leak proof and less bulky.

nice nappies to have for your young one, great absorption and hold alot of liquid, keeps the explosions at bay too if gotten to quickly. lovely patterns on them making the easy to decipher which size and type you need for your little one. Recommended to friends who were using the more expensive nappies and they love then now and use them more often too. Well priced and come in a larger pack for those who dont like having to go to the shops often to get more and more stuff.

I absolutely love these nappies. I used them on my son and found they were equivalent to brand nappies if not better. When my friend had her baby I showed her these nappies and she used them on her son until he was toilet trained. I again used them when my granddaughter came along and now her little brother is also using the Woolworths Select Once Upon a Time nappies. Great nappies and great price.

I used Woolworths Select Once Upon A Time Nappies on my son and found they worked better than some highly recommended brands. I’ve used them again when my granddaughter was born 3 years ago and now for my grandson. They leak less than Huggies nappies and you can pick up a small packet for around $6 when they’re on sale. I love a bargain and I love these nappies. I’ve never had a problem with them.

I find that these nappies are cheap so value for money but they leak easily. I would never use them overnight again but for during the day they are fine. They are about half the price of my usual brand but for the peace of mind and not having to change sheets everyday I choose Huggies over this brand. Thank you moths of mums and Woolworths for offering this review. I think there could be some work done on these nappies but in the price range they are the bests

I started using Woolworth’s Once Upon A Time newborn nappies with my baby when I ran out of the Newborn Huggies I had. I found them to be just as absorbant and a better fit. The price is more reasonable too, and once you move into Infant size, the nappies can be purchased in bulk.
My baby has never had an poo leaks and the nappies have a cute print and grip tabs. Odour is contained well enough, and the outer cover is smooth and soft. Moisture is pulled away from the skin and my son doesn’t get any rashes or redness.
Definitely recommend to anyone who wants an alternative to Huggies that is just as good, if not better.

Mums Reveal Their Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips
Whether you’re a seasoned or first-time mum, protecting your baby’s delicate skin is right up there on the priorities list. Because when their skin is irritation-free, it really does make for a happier bub! Anyone who’s had to deal with nappy rash (me included!) knows it’s an inescapable mum truth.
Having skin irritation as an adult is super distracting and annoying. So just imagine what that’s like for our teeny babies and toddlers, who need to focus on sleep, eat and play. No wonder they can be so upset when they have nappy rash.
One thing you do need to ditch when it comes to nappy rash is mum guilt. It happens despite our best efforts. But it is helpful if you can get ahead of the game by doing as much as you can to try and prevent nappy rash in the first place.
We asked our hundreds of thousands of Mouths of Mums members for their tried-and-true, trusted nappy rash tips, and their responses came down to four key tips. So if you’re about to have your first baby, or your fifth, it’s worth popping on the kettle and reading through what’s helped other mums.
Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips From Mums
What we love about these tips is they’re perfect for mums and expecting mums, and they’re really simple to do. Everything from what to use and what to steer clear of, to helpful hints on caring for delicate baby skin.
1. Nappy Free Time
“As much free nappy time as possible. Lay baby on a blanket covered with a towel on the floor, without a nappy on, if possible in front of a warm sunny window.” – Joanne W.
We love nappy free time for newborn and toddlers (although it’s a lot harder to get them to stay in one place!). And while nappy free time is one of the most popular nappy rash tips among our mums, using the right nappy also plays a huge part in protecting against irritation on your baby’s skin. For example, Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants have clever Rapid-Dry™ Technology, which instantly absorbs for drier skin. And they’re perfect for day and night, with up to 12 hours of leakage protection.
2. Change Nappies Frequently
“For me, what worked on my two kids is not leaving them in soiled nappies too long. I definitely changed as soon as they were wet and let their skin air dry before placing a new nappy on. I would rather go through more nappies than have to deal with the uncomfortable rash they would feel.” – MoM Member
Frequent nappy changes are a fail-safe way to keep moisture, but it’s not always practical (babies just love to fill their nappies while you’re out and about!) Huggies Newborn Nappies are designed to help protect a baby’s delicate skin with a zinc-enriched layer*, clinically proven to help protect against skin irritation.
3. Use A Barrier Cream
“My mum put me onto Zinc and Caster Oil cream. It is FABULOUS stuff! It’s very thick and sticks like you know what to a blanket hehe I tried literally everything and this was the only stuff that helped.” – Trudes
Using a barrier cream was another really popular tip from our mums. But did you know that Huggies Newborn Nappies are the only nappy with a zinc enriched layer. The zinc oxide in Huggies Newborn Nappies is the same ingredient found in many nappy rash creams, which helps to protect against irritation with visibly less redness on skin. They’re also endorsed by the Australian College of Midwives and the number one choice in Australian hospitals.
4. Choose Gentle
“Don’t use scented wipes. Flannel and warm water is the best.” – Justine F
Using the most natural product possible for wiping a baby’s delicate skin to prevent irritation is a tip that’s been passed down from generation to generation – and it’s still a great one. But something lots of mums don’t consider that a nappy itself can help protect against skin irritation. Huggies Newborn Nappies are clinically proven* to help protect against skin irritation while Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants keep up with wriggly little ones while providing superior dryness, making them perfect for active toddlers.
Nappy Rash Myths & Facts
🚫 Myth: Nappy rash is only caused by wet nappies. ✅ Fact: It’s true that moisture does play a role in nappy rash, it can also be caused by moisture friction, bacteria, and even what the nappy is made from.
It’s why choosing a nappy that’s specifically designed for skin protection is really important.
🚫 Myth: Cloth nappies are better at preventing nappy rash than disposable nappies. ✅ Fact: When it comes to nappy rash, there’s not really any need to compare cloth and disposable nappies, because it’s all about keeping baby dry. The longer baby can stay dry, the better.
🚫 Myth: Nappy rash creams are the only way to protect against irritation. ✅ Fact: A good nappy with a zinc enriched layer can also help to protect against irritation.

*Zinc as Zinc Oxide. Tested on adult skin as a suitable substitute for baby skin. *#1 choice in Australian hospitals based on sales data.
Really terrific advice. My daughter never had much in the way of nappy rash develop and I believe that because I did change her so frequently and we had a lot of nappy free time, especially in the warmer months of summer. Sure there is things to treat nappy rash but we all know prevention is best!
My first born had terrible nappy rash and ulcers from acid urine and none of the specialists prescription creams did anything. I finally used Petroleum Jelly and it cleared up his skin very quickly and kept future rashes at bay. It is cheap and easy to use and works the best of anything.
Any redness can be resolved with a tub of Sudocrem. It’s a cream that smells like lavender. Very pleasant and usually works quickly within the first application.
Take it with you everywhere. It helps poo nappy changes. Just apply on bottom area to prevent future nappy rash. Your baby will be happy with it on. It doesn’t feel cold like a wet wipe.

I had issues with my son pooping a lot as a newborn. Sometimes it can be really hard to keep the rash at bay if you have a child that is constantly doing that. There is some acidity in the excrement and that can cause burning before it’s even been against their skin for long. I used to use paw paw cream on him and that worked best as a barrier.
Nappy Rash can be so raw and painful and i always worried so much when our babies had a bout of it. I remember trying so many things but always found good old petroleum jelly used regularly would help in keeping it at bay. There are some great suggestions in the article.
I did find that not all nappy rash creams are as good as each other. After trialing many brands I settled on Sudocrem as the best for me and my baby. Changing nappies frequently and air time is also very important.
There are so many common sense tip in this article and they are tips that we followed. We kept everything as natural as possible on very soft and sensitive skin. We went with plenty of nappy free times and we were very fortunate to not encounter issues with nappy rash.
This article describes very much what we always have done: frequent nappy changes, plenty of bare bum time, no fragrances also not in soaps and a good nappy rash cream. It can become more challenging when your child has diarrhea; in which case bare bum time becomes more complex and the skin more irritated in which the gentle washing with warm water, patting dry with a soft cotton flannel and good zinc cream is more important
Even though I agree that prevention is key, I also think it’s important to have a good barrier cream to hand to help at the first signs of trouble. There are lots of good brands, you can pick any really that suits your baby’s skin. But use it liberally when you need it!
Yay! First time seeing my own comment in an article! *happy dance*
But yes, i do swear by changing their nappies as soon as it’s soiled. It’s what worked for us for both children! We always go prepared and change either before going out, during or in the car boot if we really had to
Nappy rash is horrible and prevention is definately better than cure. This is a fantastic article with some great tips. Especially the changing of the nappy frequently. Unfortunately sometimes especially once they’re on solids and their poops get yucky a little nappy rash can be unavoidable in which case a small amount of sudocreme clears it up quickly.
We found that changing nappies frequently was key for us. And once the kids starting sleeping for long periods at night, we started using the really good quality nappies – Huggies, as it happens – while cheaper nappies were still okay for the day and frequent changes. Nappies do vary! .
This is a really great reminder that nappy rash can happen but there are some great tips to help try and avoid it. I use to do a lot of nappy free time with my daughter when we were home as she had sensitive skin and I layered the barrier cream on all the time, especially at night.
