Why Parents Swear by Pouch Packing

Why Parents Swear by Pouch Packing

If you’ve ever found yourself rummaging through a messy nappy bag, desperately trying to find a dummy or spare change of clothes — you’re not alone. That’s exactly why so many parents are turning to packing organiser bags like our Packing Pouch Trio. They’re not just cute — they’re a total game-changer for nappy bag organisation.

So, what is pouch packing?

It’s the ultimate bag organiser system. Instead of tossing everything into one large pocket and hoping for the best, you sort your baby and toddler essentials into expandable, zip-up pouches. It’s like using packing cubes for your nappy bag — smarter, faster, and way less stressful.

How real parents are using the Packing Pouch Trio

Packing for One Baby

In this setup, the mini size is used for your personal items (like pads &medicine), the medium size is for dirty things on the go and the largest size fits all the nappy changing essentials so they can be pulled out in one go - it even fits the fold-up change mat! It’s the perfect nappy bag space-saving idea for everyday outings.

Packing for a Newborn & Toddler

With two kids, the chaos can double — but not if you're strategic. Separate your essentials for each child by giving them their own print. In this video, I have chosen Blue Check for the baby and Garden Party for the toddler — their spare clothes and nappies have been packed into their own pouch. This makes it so much easier to access what you need quickly, especially if nappy sizes are similar and easy to confuse.

I then packed the changing mat, wipes and creams into the OiOi Changing Pouch and snacks into the Mini Insulated Lunch Bag for added organisation. This setup mimics packing cubes for parents and makes transitioning between outings smoother.

Packing for Daycare

Keep daycare essentials sorted by category — spare clothes, nappies and medicines. It’s a great way to teach independence too, as your little one learns what pouch has what.

Top Benefits of Pouch Packing

  • Reduces clutter — everything has its place
  • Makes nappy bag changes between parents seamless
  • Quick access to essentials in public changing rooms
  • Stylish, washable, and designed to fit all OiOi bags

How to Choose Your Pouches

Our Packing Pouch Trio comes in a variety of prints to match your nappy bag. Many parents even grab an extra set to rotate or use at daycare, travel, or in the car boot. If you’re after nappy bag organisation hacks, this is where you start.

Bonus Tip

Label your pouches with a tag or sticker if multiple people use the same bag. You’ll always know what’s inside at a glance — no more digging around!
