A washable diaper is reusable underwear with inserts that you wash after use. The materials absorb moisture and can be used multiple times with a regular washing schedule.
For example: during the day, a child wears a washable diaper with a liner. After use, the diaper goes into a laundry net and later into the washing machine.
How it helps: the term gives words to a reusable option next to disposable. It clarifies choices about material, washing schedule and feeling of wetness.
