Tidy Tushees Diaper Service was founded in April 2008 and since that time the company has saved more than 50,000 diapers from local landfills. I have a two year old son who was been the inspiration for starting the local diaper service and retailing of natural parenting products.
“We made the decision to cloth diaper our son before he was born. I had been allergic to disposables as a child and my husband Glenn and I weren’t comfortable with the possible risks associated with the plastics and chemicals in disposable diapers. Not to mention the environmental impact of all of those diapers in the landfill and the tonnes of untreated human waste being disposed of each year. I also didn’t think it was “that big of a deal” to cloth diaper. After all, our parents managed!”
When I was first researching the world of cloth diapers in preparation for Tyson’s birth, I was completely overwhelmed with the number of choices available. Gone were the days of pinning and folding and now there was a whole language of Fitted’s, AIO’s, Longies and Soakers! I didn’t know where to start and I couldn’t seem to find any local resources. I am thrilled to be able to provide not only the service and products, but support to other families who want to make healthier choices.
Our goal is to help families succeed with cloth diapering. Whether they choose to let us do the dirty work for them or they need help troubleshooting their cloth diapering system, we are here to work with them!
