Join Elana from Cloth Nappy Workshops Melbourne to discover the world of modern cloth nappies.

They'll cover washing tips, dispel myths, show the different styles of modern cloth and most importantly an opportunity to ask questions to get you confident with cloth. We will also have examples of different cloth nappies for you to look at and explore.
