New Member Added - Helena from Minky Bots (Fielding)

I am a stay at home mum to 2 gorgeous little boys who keep me super busy. So i sometimes have limited time for my nappy making. I make and list nappies as i find a spare moment :) I decided to start Minky bots so that i had a way to earn money while staying home with my boys.

When I found out I was pregnant with my first son, I said to my partner that I wanted to use cloth nappies, his reaction to that was “no way”. So from that point on there was no turning back for me (because im so stubborn), and I can proudly say I have only ever bought 1 pack of disposables, and that was in the middle of winter with 2 boys in nappies.
Im not talking about all the flash pocket nappies, fitteds or AIO you can get, I started out using the old flat cloth nappies with pins and a waterproof cover!
Then I thought I would give it a go at making my own pocket nappies, which then turned into me designing my own pattern that suited my son perfectly and altered it to be available in 4 different sizes. Newborn, Small, Medium and Large.
Minky Bots has just grown from there. I now offer a extra large nappy to order and am working on a one size fits all pattern.

Most of my products are made for a super soft Minky Fabric that is Imported from the USA. I Make Minky Pocket Nappies, Cloth Wipes, Taggy Toys, Bibs, Microfleec­e Liners and Nappies with Snap-On skirts or Shorts, Minky Snuggle Blankets and also have Minky cuts available for people to purchase to make their own creations.
