I am thinking of using disposable aprons when changing nappies. Does anyone know where I can get them from?

Sorry I don't use them myself
Have you tried e-bay or just googling disposable aprons

I got some disposable aprons from ebay. £1 for 10 plus £1 p&p. I am only going to use them if there is any sick/blood/wee/poo to clean up (not nappy changes), so hopefully they should last me a while.

I don't use disposable aprons for nappy changes, only the latex glove thingymajiggys!
For me, I really don't see any need to wear an apron as well, it's just a stone's throw from wearing a face mask and hair net! Ha ha! Sorry, it's just the picture that came into my head when I read this. (Mind you, sometimes a face mask might be quite a good idea!)
TBH, if it wasn't for Ofsted, I would be perfectly happy not to even wear the gloves.

Yes please to the link Lou_M. That would be very helpful. I looked on ebay and didn't really know which one to choose. Thanks

i know we've talked about this before but i still don't wear gloves (or an apron ) for nappy changes
if i am doing nappies one after the other i wipe my hands with antibac wipes in between children but other wise i just wash them straight after.
think about all those gloves not rotting in a landfill too

Is it a requirement from ofsted to wera arprons/gloves at any time? Ie nappy changes/clearing up accidents? I am not a fan of anything disposable to be honest, as I also think of landfill and ongoing expense etc.
