Green baby products
How eco-friendly is your newborn baby?
Take a look this essential list of green baby products to help save the environment and help local communities without costing the earth:
-
Re-usable nappies
Your new baby could go through as many as 12 nappies a day so take a moment to consider how many disposable nappies are sent to landfill sites each day. Buying re-usable, washable cloth nappies (with nappy liners) is a much more environmentally friendly solution and can be very cost-effective too.

Organic baby bath wash and shampoo
There are now plenty of organic baby bathing products that do not have any chemicals in such as sodium lauryl sulphate and artificial fragrances. Natural, organic baby washes can also be more delicate on baby's skin.

Eco-friendly cots and cribs
If you can, buy your wooden cot or crib from a sustainable wood source. Even better, check out these bamboo cots from Mothercare, or even an ultra-eco cardboard cot.

Organic baby clothing
Buying organic clothes for your baby can help reduce the amount of chemicals used in growing and producing the fabrics. Even better, try and find some hemp baby sleepsuits or baby-grows as hemp is much faster growing than cotton and requires much less water.
