Considering a cloth diaper option? Gone are the days that your parents remember

09/19/2015

When someone says cloth diapers – what comes to mind?  Some may envision having to pin and wrap sheets around your baby, dealing with leaky messes and a pile of never ending laundry!

Have no fear!  WonderWear cloth diaper service is here! 

You may be considering a modern cloth diapering solution for your baby but still have some concerns.  Perhaps the work, the mess, the costs, the time are all deciding factors on whether to go cloth vs disposable. Here are three main complaints families have about cloth diapering and why many choose to use a cloth diaper delivery service vs doing it yourself:

1. Wow… that’s a lot of diapers and A LOT of work! The average baby soils 80-90 diapers per week for the first 6 months and then between 60-70 diapers weekly thereafter. Washing upwards of 15 diapers per day is a tremendous amount of work, particularly when you consider everything else that comes with having a newborn. Well there is good news!  There is a cloth diaper service that takes all the work out of cloth diapering AND fits your little one like a disposable diaper without the need for tucking and pinning. Wonderwear: the Modern Diaper Service is a great option for parents who don’t want the fuss or muss of dealing with diaper changes and disposing of them… simply toss the soiled diaper in the odor proof and waterproof wet bag provided each week and they come and take them away! It’s a dream! There is no need to dump or rinse the diapers at all.  And because they fit like disposables as well with elasticized legs and back with multiple side snap closures, they fit snugly where the baby needs it most and are WAY better in terms of absorbency and leak protection than cloth diapers of the past.
    
2. I can’t get my cloth diapers clean! Home based washers do not get anywhere near hot enough to remove all bacteria in a cloth diaper. If you check out cloth diaper forums they are filled with complaints about still having a smell after washing three times or having to use bleach/stripping the diaper to get the stains out. Some cloth diaper services, like GTA based Wonderwear Modern Cloth Diaper Service, use commercial washers which operate at much higher temperatures than home washers and essentially sterilize the diapers while eliminating all bacteria. Due to the extremely high temperature water and super fast soil separation rinse cycles, they guarantee like new diapers for every change without using harmful chemicals like chlorine or bleach.
3. This is a big upfront $ commitment! It is estimated that the average family embarking on cloth diapering themselves will spend between $600 and $800 in cloth diapers and accessories to get set up. That’s a serious upfront cost when you may or may not be in it for the long run. But Disposable diapers are also very expensive so there are cost savings by choosing cloth as well.  What’s great about Wonderwear is there is no upfront cost and no long term commitment. So you can try it out with no risk.

There are two other great reasons to try the cloth diaper route.

Beyond the common objections, have you given some thought to the health benefits your baby will receive from cloth diapering and the reduced incidence of diaper rash, no harsh chemicals near their sensitive skin or the dangers of inhaling the chemicals that disposable diapers emit?  

Not to mention the environmental reasons.  As much as 8,000 fewer disposable diapers will end up in a landfill and you will help reduce the devastating climate impact of deforestation just from choosing to use cloth diapers.

So, if you are thinking about trying out a cloth diapering service, why not give Wonderwear: the Modern Cloth Diaper Company a try!  We finally have a cloth diaper service that eliminates the three major issues most people have about cloth diapering.  You can now enjoy the benefits of cloth diapers AND the benefits of disposables….without the drawbacks.  Sounds like a no brainer to me!
