How to Use a Snappi

We absolutely love the Snappi diaper fastening tool!

Here’s why:

  1. The Snappi allows you to create a snug fitting diaper that will prevent leaks & blow-outs!
  2. Its t-shape & stretchable arms hook & anchor easily into your prefold diaper’s fabric in few quick steps.
  3. The Snappi is safe!  It was designed to prevent you and your baby from experiencing those painful pricks that are associated with the old style diaper pins of the past.

Here’s how step-by-step!

First, pre-load your diaper cover with your prefold diaper.  Be sure to create cloth tabs by pulling out the right & left corners of your diaper as shown in the picture below.

Place your baby on top of the cloth diaper in cover.  Pull the front of the cloth diaper up between your baby’s legs so that it rests on your baby’s waist.


Pull the right cloth tab over the top of the diaper portion that was pulled up to your baby’s waist.


Pull the left cloth tab over the top of the diaper portion that was pulled to your baby’s waist.

Start fastening your Snappi to your diaper.  Begin by attaching the Snappi to the cloth on left tab.


Pull the right side of the Snappi fastener across your baby’s waist and attach it to the cloth on the right tab.


Anchor your Snappi by pulling the center Snappi fastener down.  Attach it to the cloth between your baby’s legs.


Your prefold diaper is now securely fastened around your baby’s bottom.
