Why Cloth Diapers?



Why Cloth Diapers?

Reusable cloth diapers have many benefits, including:

  • Environmental: Cloth diapers reduce waste for families with children in diapers by more than 50%.
  • Financial: Cloth diapers allow families to save more than $2000 per child.
  • Health: Cloth diapers help parents reduce exposure of their babies’ skin and lungs to the chemicals in disposable diapers.
  • Cute and comfortable: Parents love putting soft cloth diapers, available in a variety of styles and patterns, on their babies.
  • Convenient: Once you’ve purchased your stash, no more weekly trips to the store to purchase more – simply put a load in the laundry!
For more information and facts on cloth diapers visit The Real Diaper Association.

There are also many different types of cloth diapers. Learn more about the different cloth diapering systems on Everything Birth, Inc's Cloth Diapering Info page.

Feeling overwhelmed by all the different types? Learn more about Diaper Parties by Everything Birth and find your local Diaper Parties representative to learn more about hosting a cloth diaper party. This way you can see and touch the different types and learn more in detail about the different systems of cloth. Different systems work for different families; after attending or hosting a diaper party, you will feel confident in your choice and you will avoid the frustration of purchasing the wrong type of system.

What's really nice about these parties is if a Diaper Parties representative cannot get to you, Everything Birth will ship the kit to you and the closest Diaper Parties representative can guide you via phone and internet. How perfect is that?

Diaper Party details will probably answer all of your questions but if you happen to have a question that isn't answered just leave a comment below. =]

Pre-Register!

You've made the decision to participate in Marquette's GCDC hosted event. Awesome!
It is very important that you pre-register to reserve a spot and a goodie bag that will contain some samples, gift certificates, etc. You don't want to miss out on that! But register fast because only the first 30 registrees will receive a goodie bag (packed with all the good stuff)!

Pre-Register here.

There are also just a few rules that must be followed and those are listed on the pre-registration form. If you have any questions at all about these rules or any details that you are confused about- drop me an e-mail at kristine(at)diaperparties(dot)com!

What is the GCDC?

Help put cloth diapers in the record book!

Cloth diapers have come a long way in past 10 years, and it’s time to stand up and be noticed. Celebrate Earth Day, by joining the North American and International cloth diaper community on April 23rd, 2011 at 9AM PDT (12PM EST) to set the world record for the most cloth diapers changed simultaneously.

Everyone can participate and the more babies the better-- every cloth diapered bum counts!
