Wizard Duo All In Two Overview
Wizard Duo is the revolutionary all in two nappy system from Mother-ease.
The Wizard Duo is a slim nappy consisting of two parts
- The Wizard Duo nappy insert
- The Wizard Duo covers
The Wizard Duo absorbent nappy insert poppers in and out of the Wizard Duo waterproof cover to make a nappy that goes on in one simple step. The Wizard Duo inserts all give full width coverage and will not bunch.
Unlike other all in two nappies there is elastic all the way round the nappy insert This ensures you get the same excellent containment as you do from a two part nappy system but with the convenience of a one layer system.
Wizard Duo Inserts are for use ONLY with the Wizard Duo Wraps This page is ONLY for buying the inserts the Duo Covers are purchased separately.
The Wizard Duo is very similar to the all in one Wizard Uno except the Wizard Duo is better for longevity.
How many Wizard Duo inserts and covers do I need?
As a guide you will need 1 wrap for every 4 inserts.
A full time set would be 20 inserts with 5 covers.
We sell the Wizard Duo inserts and wraps singly so you can make your own perfect Wizard Duo nappy system. We also make our Nappy Lady Perfectly Balanced Wizard Duo nappy kits if you're prefer a quick one click purchase of everything you need.
Sizing
The Motherease Wizard Duo Inserts come in four sizes:
You can begin your cloth nappy journey once your baby fits into the One Size Wizard Duo at 10 lbs which will give you the most economical option as you only have one investment into your cloth nappy stash. The One Size is the most popular option.
There is always a compromise on fit with any one size nappy option and it will be bulkier at the lower end of the weight range. The alternative is you can move into the One Size Wizard Duo once your baby has outgrown the Small Wizard Duo. This option will give you the best fit at both weight ranges, as a One Size nappy will be a little bulkier a fit at 10 lbs than it would be at 18 lbs.
The Newborn Wizard Duo will give your newborn baby the most comfortable and trim fit upto 12lbs. The perfect reusable nappy option for those teeny tiny newborn babies.
The Small Wizard Duo provides a great fit up to 18lbs and is the best starting point for the majority of babies that are already around the 8 lb mark at birth. Starting with the Small before moving to the One Size will give you a nice trim fitting cloth nappy up to 18 lbs.
Perfect for larger babies.
For ultimate slimmess and fit the Newborn give a much trimmer fit and then later on move into the onesize. To save you the cost of buying the newborn size consider our Nappy Lady Wizard Duo newborn hire kits.
How do I use it?
This is the Nappy Lady method of making all in two nappy changes swift and efficient
- Put baby in a clean Wizard Duo (cover and insert attached inside)
- At the same time make a spare Wizard Duo set up and left on the changing table (cover and clean insert inside)
- At the next nappy change time take the entire Wizard Duo cover and wrap off and set aside
- Put baby in the clean spare set you made up earlier
- Put baby somewhere safe or toddler is off to play
- Now take out the soiled insert from the original cover and store in the nappy bucket
- Put a clean insert back in this prevously worn wrap and this is now your spare set for next nappy change
- Repeat this cycle of switching between wraps throughout the day.
- Change and wash Wizard Duo wraps after 4 wears each wrap or if a wrap becomes soiled.
Make sure you watch our demo video above on how to use the system and rotate your wraps for ease of use.

Wizard Duo Nappy Fabric Options
Stay Dry Inserts
Wizard Duo Stay Dry Nappy Inserts are the best selling Duo option.
The Stay Dry Inserts are made from a Mother'ease exclusive high tech super absorbent hypoallergenic 100% polyester fabric.
- Easy to rinse
- Super quick to dry
- Moisture wicking technology means they are dry to the touch even when wet.
- Super durable fabric which helps prevent rashes like no other on the market.
Mother-ease do not use fleece in their reusable nappies or on nappy boosters like other brands do. Fleece slows absorption and that can cause leaks so Motherease had their own special staydry fabric created.
Mother-ease Staydry fabric is entirely different to any other staydry fabric on the market and it is made JUST for them! Mother-ease use a specially knit fabric that creates a stay dry barrier by the weave in the fabric. It allows the wetness to easily pass through, but not back. Keeping the babies skin dry to the touch.
Another neat aspect is that they include a cooling yarn as well. This keeps the temperature inside the nappy lower - cooler for baby and reduces the growth of bacteria.
Stay Dry Nights
Same Stay Dry Insert as above but higher absorbency for night time.
The night inserts have green stitching so you can tell the difference between days and nights.
If you need your night time nappy capacity boosted even further then a booster can be simply placed between the cover and insert.
Natural Unbleached Cotton
Natural Cotton is the cheapest of the Wizard Duo insert options and is perfect for families that require natural materials next to babies skin. The cotton insert is suitable for the daytime but for night time would require boosting or use of the Stay Dry Night Insert.
- Natural fibre
- Wet feel
- Average drying speed
Care of Mother-Ease Wraps
The binding on the Mother-ease wraps are the reason they are so fabulously waterproof so it's important to treat the binding with respect and make sure it can't get caught on velcro etc in the wash.
When washing your Mother-ease wraps place them in a mesh washing bag separate from anything that could catch on the binding like Velcro to keep them in excellent and reliable condition.
Mother-ease have very specific washing detergent requirements please read our washing page so you're aware of the requirements. This usually means that the wraps have to be washed separately to your nappies.
Wraps rarely need to be tumble dried as they air dry so fast however they can occassionally be tumble dried on low in an emergency.
Customer Review
I just wanted to email to tell you how impressed I am with the wizard nappy. We managed 2 1/2 hrs in it this morning strapped into a buggy with maximum crotch pressure as we were doing a very bumpy off road walk and the insert whilst damp felt pretty dry and nowhere near totally full or going to leak. They are so slim as well and she can walk properly not waddle in them. Just put her down for a sleep in the second one (the wrap wasn't even damp which was amazing). Bearing in mind that a hemp nappy with 2 hemp boosters and a microfibre booster last max 3hrs and a bamboozle stretch with 2 extra boosters does 2hrs and I have rarely manage to reuse a wrap as they are usually wet and stink of wee this is amazing (I just hope she wasn't holding on and not weeing this morning but I doubt it!). I shall try the superboosters in my other nappies later to see how they do. Tara
