In May 2024 we shared an exciting announcement that we rebranded from Rascal + Friends to Rascals. Founded in 2016 by a New Zealand mum of four, we’re now proudly sold in over 25 countries worldwide and loved by millions of parents. As we continue to grow, it felt natural to refresh the look and feel of the Rascals brand and shorten our name. After all, many of you already called us ‘Rascals'. We can’t wait to share more of this exciting chapter with you!
Absolutely. New look, same Rascal + Friends!
While we are refreshing our brand from Rascal + Friends to Rascals, rest assured that our award-winning nappies, nappy pants and wipes are staying the exact same products you know and love. In addition to fun new Rascals content, you’ll start to see our new packaging land on shelf in May - we can’t wait! Be sure to follow @rascalsbaby on Instagram, TikTok and Facebook.

We recommend choosing a nappy size by weight, and you can find this information on our nappy size guide. Some common signs that it might be time to size up are:
- The nappy starts to leak
- You’re changing their nappy more
- If the tabs no longer stretch enough to fasten comfortably over the hip
- The nappy feels tight around the waistband, leg cuffs or is starting to leave red marks on their skin
- You can’t run a finger inside the waistband when fastened
For more tips, head to our size guide and watch our Nappy Fit Check video.
Babies come in all shapes and sizes so we've engineered award-winning products so your little one can grow with Rascals.
Our nappies are available in sizes 3-7, and our nappy pants are available in sizes 4-7.
Signs your little one might be ready to try nappy pants:
- They will no longer lay still for nappy change
- They start to pull at their nappy or try take it off
- Nappy tabs no longer fasten at their hips and they’ve outgrown the largest size
- They are beginning to potty train and start learning to pull a nappy pant up and down on their own
All babies are different, and while nappy pants are typically used for potty training toddlers, they’re also a great alternative to nappies for active babies. Made with the same feather-soft materials and leak-proof features, Rascals Premium Nappy Pants are Our #1 Fit For Active Babies[1].
Engineered with an UltraFlex 360™ Waistband, Quick-Change Features and Easy On & Off Design, our nappy pants function just like underwear so you can change little rascals on-the-go, or help with the transition to potty training. Available in sizes 4 (10-15 kgs) - 7 (17+ kgs).
Rascals Premium Nappies are the best at containing the mess. Engineered with 6 Core Innovations for a high-performing nappy that’s recommended by paediatricians and clinically proven safe on sensitive skin. Our #1 Absorbing Nappy is made with a unique Hydrolock Core™ that holds up to 25x its weight in liquid for up to 12 hours of advanced leak protection[1,2,3] - that means less blowouts, less mess and less stress for you.

Understanding how often to change newborn nappy is key to ensuring your baby's comfort. While every baby is different, most newborns will need a nappy change 8-10 times a day. This is due to more frequent bladder movements and to ensure they are comfortable in a clean nappy to help prevent nappy rash. Rest assured, Rascals Premium Nappies offer advanced leak protection to quickly absorb moisture and keep skin dry, and our handy wetness indicator helps you know when to change their nappy – it turns from yellow to purple when full.
The number of nappy changes per day typically decreases as your little one gets bigger, with toddlers only needing 4-6 changes a day.
The most common cause of nappy leaks is the wrong size nappy or fit. Engineered with 12 hours of advanced leak protection[3] and leak-proof features, Rascals Premium Nappies are designed to keep leaks contained. To help ensure you have the correct size and fit, we recommend:
- Choosing a nappy size based on weight. Check our nappy size guide to ensure your baby is still within the correct range.
- Checking the nappy is fitting correctly, including: having the leg cuffs untucked, tabs securely fastened at the waist, and waistband sitting high on your little one’s back.

Absolutely! Our #1 Absorbing Nappy is made with a unique Hydrolock Core™ that can hold up to 25x its weight in liquid for up to 12 hours of advanced leak protection, day and night[1,2,3]. Our Fast-Dry Layer also absorbs and traps liquid in seconds, to keep your little human’s skin dry overnight and help prevent rashes.
Our unique fit means that rather than stretchy tabs, our nappies are made with an extra stretchy waistband designed to wrap around your baby’s waist and sit higher on their back to prevent leaks from escaping. In fact, Rascals Stretchy High-Back Waistband™ offers 2.5x more stretch[4] and helps you perfectly fit the nappy to your little one.
Yes! All sizes of our nappies are made with a wetness indicator. Our nappies with wetness indicators change from yellow to purple when it's time for a change.
Designed to take the guesswork out of nappy changes and make life easier, our wetness indicator changes from yellow to purple when the nappy is full and ready to change. You’ll find our wetness indicator on all nappy sizes.
Made with Zero Nasties and clinically proven safe on sensitive skin, Rascals Premium Nappies are free from 100+ harmful substances and contain 0% lotions, latex or fragrance.
Our nappies are made with premium materials from around the world including: fluff pulp from sustainable forests, super absorbent material (SAP), polypropylene non-woven fabrics, polyethylene film, spandex, adhesive glue, wetness indicator.
We are proudly certified:
- OEKO-Tex Standard 100 (free from 100+ harmful substances!)
- Dermatest Seal of Approval
- PETA Vegan & Cruelty Free
- Sustainable Pulp
- Allergy Tested
Yes! All Rascals products are dermatologist tested to be safe on sensitive skin and have been accredited with the Dermatest Seal of Approval.
We use water-based inks to print our nappies and nappy pants, which are safer for your little one and the planet than traditional oil-based inks. Meaning our signature Rascals design doesn’t just look better, it is better!
The crystals and gel found in your baby's nappy are super absorbent polymers (SAPs). SAPs are safe and non-toxic materials used to absorb urine and feces in nappies.
When SAPs absorb liquid, they swell and form gel beads. These beads help keep the nappy dry and comfortable for your baby, while also preventing the growth of bacteria that can cause nappy rash.
While you may occasionally see small gel beads on the nappy or on your baby, rest assured that they are non-toxic, non-irritating, and non-sensitizing. SAPs are extensively tested and researched, and are commonly used in products that come into contact with skin or food.
At Rascals, we are committed to using quality materials and our nappies are made with ECF (Elemental Chlorine Free) pulp. ECF pulp is completely safe for use in nappies and on sensitive skin. To be a suitable nappy material, ECF pulp undergoes a very safe bleaching process with chlorine dioxide, please note chlorine is not ‘added’ to the nappy at any stage. Chlorine Dioxide is a compound that is completely different to chlorine and is quickly converted to harmless salts and water.
Additionally, the ECF process has more environmental advantages than TCF (Totally Chlorine Free) pulp and is recognized as the "best available technology" by the US EPA. You can find more information about this here.
No, Rascals Premium Nappies and Nappy Pants do not contain Glyphosate. In fact, our nappy was the first in the world to have the BioChecked Non Glyphosate certification.
We’ve teamed up with our friends at CoComelon to bring you a fun, limited edition print featuring JJ & friends! Engineered with 6 Core Innovations for a high-performing pant, Rascals CoComelon Nappy Pants will help to make change time easier.
Our #1 Fit for Active Babies[1], our nappy pants function just like underwear to help with the transition to potty training or help you change wriggly rascals who won’t lay still for nappy change.
Clinically proven safe on sensitive skin, our pants materials are free from 100+ harmful substances and are available in sizes 4 (10-15 kgs) to 7 (17+ kgs).

When it’s ready to change, use our Easy-Tear Sides to remove the pant, then roll and reseal with the blue tab before disposal.
The blue tab on the back of our nappy pants is a handy disposal tab for when you dispose of the pant. Once removed and rolled up, unstick the blue tab and wrap it around the pant to seal it in place. It makes for easy changes on-the-go and keeps messes contained!
Every child is different and while there’s no one size fits all approach to potty training, here’s a few signs that your little one might be ready to start:
- They try to remove their nappy after urinating, or when they are uncomfortable
- They communicate that they need their nappy changed
- They stay dry in their nappy for at least two hours during the day, or are dry after naps
- They are excited by the idea of wearing underwear or “big kid” pants
- They can follow simple instructions, like walking to the bathroom, sitting down and removing their clothes

Rascals CoComelon Premium Nappy Pants are engineered with 6 Core Innovations for a high-performing pant that’s designed to help make potty training easier. Plus, your little one will love change time with JJ & friends with our limited edition CoComelon print!
