Easy Sustainable Swaps (That Actually Work)

Making more sustainable choices doesn’t have to mean a full lifestyle change. Sometimes, it’s the small, simple swaps that make the biggest difference for your family, your budget, and the planet.

At Bear & Moo, we’re all about realistic sustainability. No pressure, no perfection just easy alternatives you can try at your own pace. Here are some of our favourite reusable swaps that fit seamlessly into everyday life.

Cloth Wipes (Cotton or Bamboo)

Soft, durable, and incredibly versatile, our cloth wipes are an easy win. Made from cotton or bamboo, they’re gentle on delicate skin and tough enough for everyday messes.

Use them for:

• Nappy changes

• Bathtime

• Mealtimes

• Wiping sticky hands and faces

Once you try them, you’ll wonder why you ever relied on disposables. Just wash, dry, and reuse, super simple!

Reusable Nappies

Let’s bust the myth: reusable nappies are not as hard as you think.

If you’re curious but feeling unsure, start small! Even just one or two. Many parents are surprised by how quickly they fall into a routine. The payoff? Less waste, fewer trips to buy disposables, and noticeable savings over time.

Your wallet and the environment will thank you.

Comfortable, cute, and surprisingly cost‑effective. Our reusable sanitary pads are a swap so many people end up loving.

Swim Nappies

Hands down, one of the easiest sustainable swaps.

Instead of buying disposable swim nappies over and over, just choose one reusable swim nappy. After swimming, toss it in the wash with their togs and it’s ready for the next swim.

One swap = so many disposables kept out of landfill.

Start Small, Swap Slowly

Sustainability isn’t about doing everything at once. Try one swap, then another, and build from there.

Every small change adds up, and we’re so proud to be part of your journey.

You’ve got this.
