Tricks and Tips from Eco-friendly Parents
“Navigating all the green products can be challenging and expensive, so we focused on what was most important to us—things that were rubbed into the skin like sunscreen and wipes.” —Marissa S., mom to a 3-year-old boy and a baby on the way
“Choose gender-neutral clothes and swaddles so you can use them again if you plan on having more children.” —Karyn D., mom to a 2- and 4-year-old
“Skip the breastfeeding pillow and use a pillow you already have. We bought an allergy and dust mite protective cover and it worked great.” —Elena P., mom to a 2-year-old girl
“Cloth wipes and reusable diapers with adjustable snaps ended up saving us an astronomical amount in the long run (and we liked not filling trash bins with disposable diapers). We also used homeopathic remedies like coconut oil as an alternative to lanolin and diaper cream.” —Lindsey S., mom to a 3-year-old boy and a baby on the way
“We used one reusable swim diaper that lasted us all through the summer.” —Drew F., mom to a 2-year-old son
