Volume 27, Issue 3Summer / Fall, 2008 A Publication of Tiny Tots Diaper Service and Baby Boutique

The Birth Survey In the United States today, it is easier to get consumer satisfaction and quality information about a car or even a blender than about maternity care services - but no longer.

The Coalition for Improving Maternity Services (CIMS) has developed The Birth Survey, a consumer feedback website where women provide information about the maternity care they received with specific doctors, midwives, hospitals and birth centers.

Families choosing where and with whom to birth will utilize this consumer feedback, along with data on hospital and birth center intervention rates and practices, to make informed health care choices.

For the first time, millions of mothers will be able to Share birth experiences, Connect by viewing consumer feedback on birth-providers and birth locations and Learn about actual intervention rates! This survey will provide much needed Transparency in Maternity Care. The more mothers who participate in the Birth Survey, the more information will be available to others in the future.

Starting in August 2008, anyone giving birth from 2005 on will be eligible to participate in this historical, ongoing Transparency in Maternity Care project.

Currently, hundreds of volunteers, across the nation, are working on this project that piloted in New York City last year.

Dutch Study Finds Washable Diapers are Better for the EnvironmentApril, 2008Amsterdam – Washable diapers contribute to a better environ-ment, a Dutch foundation for the protection of the environment said. Spokesman Hans van Dijk of the non-governmen-tal organization Milieu Central in Utrecht said new research demonstrated washable diapers were substantially better than single-use for the environment.

“Contrary to all previous studies that looked primarily at the damage to the environment – starting from the moment a customer buys one type of diaper or another – our study also looked at the production process, including transportation,” he said.

“Although multi-useable diapers need to be washed, which also puts a strain on the environment, we found that washable diapers are up to seven times better for the environment than single-use diapers.”

Children use an average 5,000 diapers until they are potty-trained, which is on average at the age of 3.2 years, Milieu Central says.

“Washable diapers also have an extra advantage,” says Van Dijk. “Children are potty-trained at a substantially younger age.”

DISPOSABLE DIAPERS & WIPES

The only single-use diaper on the market today that doesn’t contain super absorbent gelling chemicals (AGM) is Tushies. They are a healthier single-use diaper than the Seventh Generation, Nature Boy & Girl, Ten-dercare Plus, the G Diaper, Whole Baby Diapers from Whole Foods, and the mainstream brands. Flushable diapers require the same amount of raw materials to produce, including crude oil, for just a few hours use. There is no water savings, plus they often clog sewers. There is no such thing as an eco friendly hybrid or single-use diaper.

See the chemicals yourself: Cut open the padding of a Tushies diaper and you’ll find a natural blend cotton and wood pulp fluff. Chemical-Free! Open the padding of any other disposable diaper and you can shake out white granules. These are the acrylic acid polymer salts. Put the granules in water and watch them turn into gel. This is the chemical connected with increased child asthma, increased scrotal temperature and toxic shock syndrome.

Cleansing and Soothing WipesSpecially formulated to protect your baby’s ten-der skin. Wipes are soaked in an alcohol-free, no-rinse vegetable lotion that is well tolerated by the skin. Strong cloths leave skin clean, soft and moisturized.Re-sealable pack of 70 wipes $11.00

Always stretch your new clips.

Flushable Diaper LinersActs as a soft stay-dry barrier when placed between the diaper and the baby’s skin. Baby Size 7.6” X 10.9” (200 sheets) $13.00 Toddler Size 7.7” X 15.5” (100 sheets) $8.00

Cleansing Cloths Made of pure spun lace from England. These thick, extra-soft cloths are soaked in a mild, no-rinse, fragrance-free solution consisting of gentle moisturizers that tenderly soothe and hydrate sensitive skin. Safe for baby’s face, body and bottom. Pop-top pack of 72 wipes $9.50

Baby OintmentHydrates baby’s skin by creating a moisture repellant barrier between the skin and sources of irritation. Works well on cradle cap, ultra dry skin and soothes chapped lips, cheeks and chins from drooling. It also works great on rough little knees and elbows. (2.5 oz. tube) $15.00

Earn Free Diaper ServiceThe number one way new customer’s hear about us is by YOU! We would like to say THANK YOU and give you $15 for every new customer that you refer to us. They simply need to mention your name when they order the diaper service. There is no limit to the amount of referrals we will honor.

Easy Label Audit For Your Diaper CountAn easy way to have us audit your diaper inventory is to write a 2-word note on the label on the soiled bag before you set it outside - “25 left”, or whatever number of clean diapers are left in your home. These labels are cut off the diaper bag and turned into the office after the soiled diaper counter counts your bag and writes the count on the label. When we add up the number left + the soiled count + the number of diapers delivered that day, we can determine if your rotation is correct. Some customers do this every week. Some do it once a month. **If you are on two or more types of diapers, please note which size you are auditing (25 Reg left, 10 Mega left).

Very helpful. A lot of information that I needed to know. I will recommend class and service to friends. Brian of Santa Clara
