Set up instructions

The WriggleBum nappy change harness is designed to be quick and easy to set up, making changing time less stressful for both you and your baby.

For the harness to work effectively, getting the right fit is essential. The instructions below step you through how to set up and fit the harness so you get the most out of your WriggleBum from day one.

    Ready, set, change!

    Step 1

    Wrap the WriggleBum's long bottom belt around your change mat or change table, with the top belt facing up.

    Clip both buckles and fasten both straps so that the harness is fitted as firmly as possible. A gap should be created between the mat and the harness.

    TIP #1: Make sure the WriggleBum is fitted as firmly as possible around your mat.

    Step 2

    Place the flap of fabric over the buckles. If you're using a change mat without a table, you can tuck the straps underneath.

    Open up the top belt and lie baby on top of the harness.

    TIP #2: Pop a toy onto the toy ring to keep baby busy during the change.

    Step 3

    Wrap the top belt around baby's chest, clip the buckle and adjust the strap so that the belt is fitted snugly around baby.

    TIP #3: Make sure the top belt is sitting high on baby's chest. It needs to be right under their armpits and not around their belly.

    TIP #4: To help the wriggliest of babies get used to the harness, place one hand on their chest for extra support during the change.
