What's inside
Organic cotton layers — soft, breathable and gentle on tender skin. An absorbent natural wool core to manage light to moderate leaks day or night. The Full Set also includes a reusable cotton wash bag to keep your pads together and protected in the wash.
Care instructions
Rinse in cold water after use to prevent staining. Machine wash on a gentle cycle (30°C) and air-dry or tumble dry low. Avoid fabric softeners, as they reduce absorbency. With proper care, your pads will stay soft, absorbent and long-lasting through your whole breastfeeding journey.
FAQs
Are they washable? Yes — machine wash cool (30°C) in the wash bag, then line dry.
Can I wear them overnight? In our own testing the wool inner held overnight with no leaks. Every mum's flow differs — on heavier days you may want a fresh pair.

The details
A little more about your breast pads
Why you'll love it+
Thoughtfully designed for breastfeeding mothers, our reusable nursing pads are hand sewn from three layers of super-soft, un-dyed Certified Organic Cotton with an inner of pure 100% wool — the perfect balance of absorbency, leak protection and comfort against sensitive skin. No bamboo rayon, no PCU layer, just pure natural fibres.
Each pad is a generous 10cm across, offering natural coverage, comfort and peace of mind. They keep you dry while breastfeeding, protect clothing from leaks without harsh plastics, and stay gentle on healing skin through the postpartum period — a sustainable choice for eco-conscious families.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Are these breast pads washable?+
Yes — pop them in the wash bag and machine wash cool (30°C) with your normal laundry, then line dry. Built to last your whole breastfeeding journey.
Can I wear them overnight?+
In our own overnight testing, the highly absorbent natural wool inner held through the night with no leaks. Every mum's flow is different — on heavier days you may want a fresh pair — but they're trusted for long stretches and overnight wear.
What are they made of?+
A breathable organic cotton outer and a highly absorbent natural wool inner — no bamboo, no microfibre, no synthetic backings. Just soft, natural materials that are gentle on sore, healing nipples.
Why cotton and wool instead of bamboo?+
Most reusable pads use bamboo or microfibre. We chose natural wool because it's naturally antibacterial, wicks moisture away from skin without feeling damp, and is gentle on sore, healing nipples. The organic cotton outer keeps things soft and breathable — no plastic, no irritation.
How many pairs do I need?+
The Full Set (3 pairs + wash bag) is the right number for daily rotation while one set is in the wash. The Starter Pair is ideal for trying them or topping up an existing set.
Are reusable pads really worth it vs disposable?+
The average breastfeeding mum gets through hundreds of disposable pads. Switching to reusables saves money over the year, keeps single-use plastics out of NZ landfills, and lets your skin breathe — especially helpful in those tender early weeks.
