Cloth diapers are free from harmful chemicals, including toxic carcinogens and pollutants known to cause cancer and long term reproductive effects, among other ailments.
The plastics and paper in disposable diapers are rough and abrasive; cloth diapers are more gentle and comfortable on baby's skin.
Cloth diapers are cooler on baby's skin which can help prevent diaper rash.
Do It For Your Wallet
Disposable
diapers hide wetness with "ultra
absorbency" features, which means that your baby is sitting in their own waste longer. Cloth diapered babies feel damp sooner, resulting in better success in earlier potty training. In 1999, The New York Times reported that 92% of children in 1957 were toilet trained by 18 months of age. This can mean big savings when compared to the money spent on disposable diapers
for 3 or 4 years rather than 1 to 2
years.
Since it is recommended that babies are changed each time diapers are soiled or wet to prevent rashes, the cost savings of a cloth diaper service is significant. At
80 diapers per week, disposables average $39/week. Our service is only $25/week. Over the course of two years, it comes to a savings of over $1,600!
Do It For Your Planet
A disposable diaper can take up to
500 years to start its decomposition and is used
only once, while cloth diapers are reused 50 to 200 times and can be used as rags after use on an infant.
Although disposable diaper instructions are to dispose of any solid matter, most users simply toss them into the trash,
then human waste winds up in our landfills and eventually making it into our
ground water and spreading disease.

year earlier - a huge convenience for moms and dads!
