Why?
Learn
A Cloth Diaper Debut Class can be held for a family, group of friends or at a local business or community center.
Cloth diapers are more successful for families if people have a low stress way to learn before deciding to impliment them.
Inform
A Cloth Diaper Class will give you the tools to make sure that you are an informed consumer.
It is also important that you are informed in your choice. Many families get push back about using cloth. Feeling informed will make it easier to stand by your choice.
Ask Questions
Because of the nature of the Diaper Addict we want you to ask questions. We strive to give you the best information that we can. We also want to make sure that you know that no question is a dumb question. If we don't have the answers we will do our gebest to get them for you from our range of resouces.
Friends and Families
There is nothing more fun than getting everyone together to talk about a new baby.
A Diaper Debut Class is an opportunity to make sure that everyone is on the same page about using cloth. For many the biggest hurdle with the idea that it is not a realistic option for a "regular" family.
Preperation
Making plans and figuring out what is best for your family. From the birth to first birthday to potty training there is a lot to plan for. Making sure that you have good information to make those years as fun and stress free as possible is important.
Cost Effective
Diaper Addict wors directly with manufacturers to make sure that we find cost effective options that meet the needs of our clients. The goal is for people to start with our value imports, learn about cloth diapers and if it is right for their family move to an American made option when it is a viable financial option.
Quality Tested
All of our manufacturers use SGS manufacturing certification. We only accept the most trust worthy exporters that meet the highest standards. All of our diapers meet the Applicable CPSC testing for Children's Products.
Value Imports
We make sure that we find options that are the best value for our customers. This mean working with overseas partners. We currently have relationships with three different manufaturers.
For most families they will only need to "try" cloth for 3-6 months to recoup the cost of their initial cloth diaper stash (when purchased through Diaper Addict)

Well, changing diapers are part of having a little. But not going to lie, you will be changing more diapers if you choose cloth.
Major brands will hold anywhere between 10-15 oz of urine.
Keep in mind that an average 1 year old’s bladder holds about 3 oz. So the question for you is: Are you ok with your child being in a urine soaked diaper even if they can’t feel it? “Daily urinary frequency typically decreases with age as a child’s bladder grows. Infants should have at least 4 to 6 wet diapers daily but typically urinate small amounts every hour, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics.” (Livestrong.org)
So you may or may not be changing your diaper more with cloth. If you choose a system with a stay dry liner (like microfiber or fleece) you may find that you are changing 8 instead of 6 diapers a day.
If your little is in the 50 percentile that is amazing! Great! Most clothes will fit your child just like the tag says. The rest of us... Not So Much. 50% of babies will be smaller than the average meaning that they will be wearing that super cute 6 month romper when they are 7 months old. Or maybe your little is a little bit bigger like the other 50% of babies and be out of those 6 month clothes at 4 months. I am not judging if your little one is huge or a peanut. When buying clothes for a cloth diaper little you take into account the fluff. Don’t forget either, that a full disposable is pretty huge. SAP may absorb up to 300 times its weight!
Like clothes many other items are impacted by the fluff. Your little will still fit in that stroller, car seat or swing. You may need to adjust the settings to make sure that harnesses are located correctly on little’s body, but you would have done that anyway.
Many families keep sposies on hand for travel. Personally we use dog walking poop bags and just toss the diaper in. Other people choose to use a wet bag or a old grocery bag. It is up to you. We don’t mind having the diaper in the bag because it is sealed up. Many people not only leave the house with cloth, but also camp and vacation with cloth.
Many daycare centers will not use cloth. Very few will use flats and covers. You may find it is easier to find a day care if you use AIO or pockets and provide somewhere for the diapers to go that holds in the smell.
The same goes for babysitters, family and friends. Many won’t feel confident changing a cloth diaper if it is ‘more’ steps than a disposable. When someone else is diapering the little for you make sure that you choose a one step option.
Ready to become a diaper addict?
Forget pins and plastic pants. Forget running to the store in the rain or snow with a litte.
A Cost Effective Option
Diaper Addict focuses on value brands to help families get into cloth. We know there are a lot of options out there and we strive to import only quality products at an affodable price. Many families will be able to cloth diaper from 10lbs to potty training for under $300 in cloth diapers.
