The Truth About Baby Products — And How to Choose Better (Without the Overwhelm)

The Truth About Baby Products — And How to Choose Better (Without the Overwhelm)

As parents, we all want the best for our little ones — but many of us are surprised to learn that the everyday baby products we trust aren’t always as “innocent” as they seem.

Take baby wipes, for example. Most mainstream brands are made with plastic fibres and synthetic fragrances, which can irritate your baby’s sensitive skin and take hundreds of years to decompose. The same goes for plastic toys and feeding sets — many contain hidden chemicals like BPA or phthalates, and contribute to long-term plastic waste.

But here's the good news: small, simple swaps can make a huge differenceboth for your child and the planet.

We’re sharing just a few of our favourite eco picks that will make a great choice as sustainable swaps:

  • 🧻 Reusable Cloth Wipes: Gentle on baby skin, easy to wash, and endlessly reusable.
  • 🧸 Wooden Toys: Durable, safe, and free from microplastics.
  • 🍽️ Silicone Feeding Sets: Dishwasher-safe, non-toxic, and perfect for mealtime messes.

We also want to bust a few myths. No — sustainable parenting doesn't have to be expensive or time-consuming. In fact, many eco-friendly products save you money over time and work just as well (if not better) than their disposable counterparts.

Our goal is to make eco parenting feel achievable — not intimidating. And we’re here to support you every step of the way.
