So many choices
Going green doesn't have to be an all-or-nothing proposition. You can ease into new buying habits, and make decisions over time to meet your changing needs. For example, cloth diapers may be what you use at home, but disposables could be handy when you're out for the day. You might want to make your own baby food when fresh produce is available, and use store-bought brands for additional variety. You can also start experimenting with safer household cleaners on the baby-friendly areas of your home to see how effective you think they are.

The decisions to make when having a baby are many - so are the available options. Ultimately, you will discover what works best for your family, and what keeps your child healthy and happy.

Well, I don't have no babies to take care off, but I do find this healthy and more notrient then the gerber they sell at the store, I babysit a 8 month old baby girl and I'am thinking of babysitting other kids in the future, I would love to give them organic prepared food then gerber or gerber products , I really don't find them too healthy for babies. This would be good tips for childcare teachers.
