Why Cloth Diapers? Why Natural Wool Covers?
Cloth diapers are not only best for baby, but best for Mother Earth too. It’s been estimated that approximately five million tons of untreated waste and a total of 2 billion tons of urine, feces, plastic and paper are added to landfills annually. The untreated waste placed in landfills by dirty disposable diapers is also a possible danger to contaminating ground water It takes around 80,000 pounds of plastic and over 200,000 trees a year to manufacture the disposable diapers for American babies alone.
The health of a baby’s skin is improved by the use of cloth diapers and the naturally anti-microbial properties of bamboo fabric make bamboo ideal for cloth diapers. Studies have shown that the incidence of diaper rash increased with the use of disposable diapers. In cloth, babies are generally changed more often, and potty train sooner. This is because they are able to feel the wetness against their skin and learn to react to it appropriately. In disposable diapers, children are often left for hours unchanged with ever expanding chemical gels swelling up each time a child wets.
Not only is bamboo a sustainable resource, but it’s soft and comfortable, and very absorbent.
Wool is the most absorbent fiber, capable of holding 30 percent of its weight in moisture. Absorbency has more to do with comfort than any other characteristic. Wool over a cloth diaper "breathes" as moisture is pulled away from the body and released into the air, making wool comfortable to wear in both warm or cold weather.

Why Wool?
Wool diaper covers are ideal for use over cloth diapers. Not only does wool breathe, allowing baby's skin to stay dry and healthy, but wool has natural anti microbial properties, sheds dirt and is easy to keep clean.
