What's the Best Nappy Bag? Backpack & Tote Comparison

What's the Best Nappy Bag? Backpack & Tote Comparison

Like everything baby-related, there's a huge range of options when it comes to choosing between nappy bags. It can be tricky to know where to start. Choosing the right change bag can make all the difference in your comfort and practicality when you're out and about with your baby. Whether style is more important or features such as the number of pockets, insulated bottle holders and other inclusions, the choices can feel overwhelming. Use our comparison charts below to help guide your choice. The first chart compares backpack-style nappy bags, which keep your hands free, whilst the second chart compares tote-style nappy bags, which give more of a classic handbag silhouette but are still fully functional as a change bag. Read on and we'll help you confidently choose the right bag for your lifestyle.


When deciding which nappy bag is best for you & your lifestyle, there's a few things you may want to consider:

1. What style is more suitable - tote or backpack?

2. How many pockets do you need?

3. How much will it fit?

4. How can I clean it? Is it wipeable or washable?

5. What are the closures? I.e zip, velcro or other

6. Is it clippable (i.e. to the buggy/stroller)? And are clips included?

7. What accessories are included? E.d portable change mat, buggy clips etc.

The Sleep Store's Take on Backpacks

If you're looking for a premium, simple & stylish backpack that doesn't look like a nappy bag, you can't go past the Finnson RAE Eco. For a more structured bag with easy access, the Skip Hop Main Frame is easy-to-use. For versatility, the Lassig Rolltop models are ideal as they can be rolled up or down to create more space. And for a luxe look with plenty of storage, the Lassig Glam Goldie is a gem.
