Nappy changing guidance updated

Last updated 8 July 2026

Following feedback from the sector, we have refined the updated nappy changing guidance to improve clarity. 

In addition to minor wording adjustments and the removal of some general statements, the key changes include:

  • removal of reference to Space to Grow and Thrive

  • removal of reference to separate changing facilities for children under two years

  • removal of reference to contaminated items being sent home with instructions on how to launder

  • removal of reference to the disposal of large quantities of nappies.

 The relevant section of Space to Grow and Thrive will be updated in due course.  If you require further information, please contact your inspector and they will be able to assist you.
