DIAPER DU-DEE DIAPER SERVICE
"My wife suggested cloth diapers. I thought, 'No way! I hate pins and laundry, and can’t afford a service.' She countered, 'Services and disposables are comparable in price, Velcro pants replace pins, it’s better environmentally and she’ll be out of diapers earlier.' All that and less diaper rash? No brainer!"
Making the knowledge and tools for cloth diapering accessible to U.S. parents will change the world one baby at a time.
-Real Diaper Association
Mission:
I strive to make cloth diapering more convenient and accessible so that current moms and moms-to-be have a better option than disposables.
I want to help my peers learn that cloth IS an option; even for today's moms. Educating my peers about how convenient, cost-effective, and fun cloth diapering is will be my number one focus.
I also strive to center my business around green-living. My delivery vehicle is the most fuel-efficient model available, my laundering methods are 100% natural, and I provide washable diaper pail liners (vs. plastic ones like some services).
Any other small change that I can make along the way, I will. I want to be as eco-friendly as possible.
Top Ten Reasons to Use Cloth Diapers with a Diaper Service
1. Cotton is more comfortable
And breathes much better than disposable diapers, reducing bacteria and heat build-up, as well as the possibility of diaper rash.
2.No Chemicals or Dioxins like those found in disposables.
3.Decreased water usage
A service uses less water to launder cloth diapers then it takes to manufacture disposable diapers.
4.Better for ground water
The soap that services use is 100% natural and great for the environment.
5.Reduced Landfill waste
Disposable diapers are the 3rd largest source of consumer landfill waste in the United States.
6.Save the trees
It takes 20 trees to diaper a child in disposables for two years. (This is typically the MINIMUM potty-trained age.)
7.Potty Training is done earlier
It takes a child, on average, 18 months to potty-train in cloth diapers while disposables have an average of three years.
8.Convenience
Using a service provides you with the freedom of having diapers delivered to your door!
9.More money in your pocket
Diaper services are less expensive than disposables, especially if you have more than one child in diapers.
10.Great gift
Having your diaper service paid for by others eliminates one more monthly expense that you won’t have to think about. Have friends and family purchase it as a gift.
