About Our Diapers
I'M NEW TO CLOTH DIAPERING. WHERE DO I START?
This Youtube page has great videos that we encourage every parent or guardian looking into cloth diapering to watch. We've found that people don't really understand when you try to explain the different systems of cloth diapering without some kind of visual aid. These videos give you an idea of the different systems out there so that you can decide which might work for your family's needs. Not all systems always work for all families. We encourage you to get a few to try and see what best fits your baby's needs.
Please visit the FAQ's section for more information.
When you decide to use pockets, we hope you choose SANKOFA DIAPERS for your diapering needs.
Sankofa Diapers incorporate the old and the new. The basic idea of diapering without the chemicals and trash that come with modern disposable diapers; and the fun, trim and easy-to-use diapers of today without the bulk and hassle that comes with the old system of cloth diapering.
The pictures below illustrate the various features of our diapers. Our diapers fit from 10-40 lbs. Click on each picture to see a larger version.
Our diapers have been tested by a CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) approved testing lab in Utah and are in compliance with the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA). All diapers and inserts are certified lead and phthalates free. View our Certificate of Compliance here.
Our unique double-inserts slide easily into the built in pocket on each diaper. Each insert comes with a couple pairs of snaps on them. These snaps are used to fasten the inserts together in different ways so you can arrange them according to your baby's wetting pattern. They also ensure that the inserts stay in place when your little one is on the move. Try the different snap arragements to see which one works best for your baby's needs.
