Handmade Reusable Cloth Baby Products

Hi, I’m Gemma and I am the founder of Bubbi Skins! I live in lovely Devon with my husband, Joe, 4-year old Olive and 2-year old Albie. I’m currently a full-time mum, attempting to launch Bubbi Skins in my “spare” time! Before children, I worked in renewable energy for over 12 years, and made it my goal to live a bit more sustainably.⁠

We started using cloth nappies shortly after Olive was born. It was quite daunting making that initial jump into the reusable world, but when a colleague was selling a second-hand set of cloth nappies, we couldn’t say no. It did take a little time to get used to them - we definitely learnt from experience how to optimise frequency of changing/washing etc… But after 4 years, 2 children (4 if you count the original owners!) and some new elastic, they are still going strong. It’s been the ultimate way to REUSE and REDUCE, and I’ll definitely be offering our nappies to others once we are finished with them.⁠

It took me a bit longer to switch to reusable wipes - wet wipes were always so convenient and cheap! But soon wet wipes were in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons - wet wipes washed up on beaches, wet wipes damaging wildlife, wet wipes causing fatbergs. To save a bit of money, I started making reusable wipes at home, and it soon became clear that they were better. Better at cleaning up mess, and better for the environment! ⁠

Cue Bubbi Skins!⁠

Using my love for all things reusable and lovely plush fabrics, I've developed some products to help us make some easy switches and be a bit more sustainable at home. In addition to wipes, our face pads have been a best seller (such an easy eco swap!) and our pocket nappies bring unique and eco-minded designs to baby's bum! All our products are tested and used by us at home, and are made with care, love and attention.

Thanks so much for visiting!
