The Pampers Premium Care Size 1 is a taped disposable nappy made for newborn babies weighing 2–5 kg, when changes come thick and fast and delicate skin is at its most sensitive. It's designed to keep the nappy area drier and more comfortable, with an ultra-absorbent core, a breathable outer layer and a built-in skin-protecting lotion — the everyday details that matter most in the first weeks.
Those early days involve a lot of nappies, so a snug, gentle fit and clear wetness cues make the routine easier. This newborn nappy pairs cotton-like softness against the skin with double leg elastics and soft, flexible fastening tabs, and a colour-changing wetness indicator that takes some of the guesswork out of knowing when a change may be due.
How it works
- Breathable outer material: Millions of micropores allow fresh air to circulate while helping humid air escape, which supports a drier, more comfortable environment next to the skin.
- Ultra-absorbent core: Made with elemental chlorine-free fluff pulp and super-absorbent polymer, it draws moisture away from the skin quickly and locks it securely inside the nappy.
- Wetness indicator: A line changes colour from yellow to blue when the nappy is wet, making it easier to see when a change may be needed.
- Double leg elastics: These hug the thighs for a secure fit and help reduce leaks.
- Skin-protecting lotion: A lotion coating with aloe vera sits on the topsheet to help care for delicate skin during wear.
Key ingredients in the skin-protecting lotion
| Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract |
What it does: Adds a soothing element to the lotion that coats the topsheet. Why it works: Aloe vera is a familiar plant extract chosen here to help care for delicate newborn skin. |
| Petrolatum & Paraffinum Liquidum |
What it does: Form the emollient, barrier-style base of the lotion coating. Why it works: They help the lotion stay in place against the skin during wear. |
How to use
- Open the clean nappy and position it beneath the baby with the fastening tabs at the back.
- Bring the front panel up between the baby's legs and secure the tabs comfortably around the waist.
- Pull the leg cuffs outward so they fit snugly around the thighs.
- Change the nappy regularly and whenever it becomes wet or soiled.
Best for
The Pampers Premium Care Size 1 is a great option for parents who:
- Have a newborn in the 2–5 kg weight range and want a soft nappy for frequent changes
- Like a wetness indicator to help judge when a change is due
- Want a nappy suited to both day and night use
Remember that Pampers sizing is based primarily on weight rather than age, and weight ranges can overlap because body shape and fit vary between babies. It may be time to move up a size if the fastening tabs no longer reach comfortably, the nappy leaves persistent red marks, the leg cuffs feel too tight, leaks become more frequent, or coverage isn't sufficient.
Disclaimer
Keep all packaging away from babies and children to avoid the risk of suffocation. Dispose of used nappies responsibly and do not flush them down the toilet.
Pandylane Pro Tip: A weight band can overlap two sizes, so if your newborn is at the upper end of 2–5 kg it's worth keeping the next size on hand — red marks at the waist or thighs are usually the first sign it's time to size up.
