Pampers Premium Care Size 5 is a taped disposable nappy made for toddlers, designed to combine soft skin comfort with reliable daytime and night-time protection. Size 5 suits babies weighing roughly 11–16 kg, and like all Pampers nappies, sizing is guided primarily by weight rather than age since body shape and fit vary from one child to the next.
The nappy pairs a breathable outer with an ultra-absorbent core that draws wetness away quickly and locks it inside, while cotton-like materials and a built-in skin-protecting lotion keep things gentle against delicate toddler skin. A colour-changing wetness indicator and double leg elastics round out a nappy built for everyday changes at home, on the go and overnight.
How it works
- Breathable outer: Millions of micropores in the outer material allow fresh air to circulate while helping humid air escape, supporting a drier, more comfortable environment next to the skin.
- Ultra-absorbent core: The core quickly draws moisture away from the skin and locks it securely inside the nappy, made from elemental chlorine-free fluff pulp and super-absorbent polymer.
- Wetness indicator: A line changes colour from yellow to blue when the nappy is wet, making it easier to tell when a change may be needed.
- Double leg elastics: Two rows of leg elastics fit around the thighs to help hold everything in place and reduce leaks.
- Soft fastening tabs: Flexible, polypropylene-based tabs are designed to adjust for a secure, comfortable fit around the waist.
A gentle feel against the skin
The soft, cotton-like materials are chosen for gentle comfort, and a built-in protective lotion with aloe vera is worked into the design to help care for delicate skin during wear. The solvent-free adhesives are positioned away from direct skin contact.
Key Ingredients
The skin-protecting lotion built into the nappy includes:
| Petrolatum |
What it does: Forms a light protective layer that helps shield the skin. Why it works: An occlusive that helps limit moisture loss from delicate skin. |
| Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract |
What it does: Contributes a soothing element to the lotion. Why it works: Aloe vera is a familiar, gentle plant extract used to help care for delicate skin. |
| Stearyl Alcohol & Paraffinum Liquidum |
What it does: Help carry and stabilise the lotion so it sits evenly against the skin. Why it works: They give the lotion a smooth, conditioning feel. |
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 5 is a good fit for parents who:
- Have a toddler in the 11–16 kg weight range
- Want a taped nappy they can use for both day and night changes
- Like the reassurance of a wetness indicator to help judge changes
It may be worth sizing up if the fastening tabs no longer reach comfortably, the nappy leaves persistent red marks, the leg cuffs seem too tight, leaks become more frequent, or the coverage no longer feels 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 nappies down the toilet.
