A service with numerous benefits
Our service has many benefits to busy, environmentally-responsible parents, including the
following:
Comfort and Health
-
All laundering is done to standards exceeding NHS Executive guidelines
-
Our modern, cool, breathable, 100% cotton nappies are gentle on your baby's skin (don't
we frequently wear cotton next to our own skin?)
-
The one-way nappy liners keep your baby's skin drier
-
These nappy liners are biodegradable and are safe to flush down the toilet
-
Our cotton nappies contain none of the super-absorbent gels, chemicals or perfumes
(normally found in disposables) which may irritate your baby's skin
-
Cotton nappies provide good support for correct hip development and more padding
protection for tumbling toddlers and crawlers
Cleanliness
-
Nappies are washed in non-biological detergent
-
Chlorine-free bleach is used
-
Both of our washers are regularly tested in order to ensure continuing high standards
of laundering.
Convenience
-
Paying by standing order means you don't need to be home at delivery / collection time
-
No more time-consuming shopping for bulky packs of disposables
-
No more time-consuming home washing of nappies
-
Fitted outer wraps with Velcro fastenings and leak-guards are easy to
use
Conservation
-
On average, 9 million disposable nappies are used every day
in the UK
-
This amounts to 1,000,000 tonnes of "disposable" nappy waste each year in Britain -
mostly in landfill sites - paid for by your Council Tax
-
60% of a disposable nappy is not biodegradable
-
Cotton nappies are recyclable as industrial rags
-
We use environmentally-friendly dual-fuel vans for deliveries
-
Returned bags used for delivering nappies are recycled
Cost
-
Monthly service cost compares favourably with that of disposables
-
In our experience, babies using our service are toilet trained earlier than
babies in disposables - saving money overall!
